Minneapolis is the latest community to experience violence at the hands of ICE and CBP. We saw it in North Carolina too. Federal immigration officers have been abusing their power and violating people's rights.
Our people have said: enough is enough.

Today I led my NC colleagues in demanding Speaker Mike Johnson provide his plan to avoid a health care crisis.

Today I spoke about Fatima, a young woman from Wendell who was detained by CBP while simply doing her job. She has no criminal history, a pending asylum claim, and she was still denied bond.
We won't stop fighting until Fatima is home where she belongs.

It was wonderful to stop by Designed for Joy in Raleigh, which provides women in crisis with stability through employment.
