My thoughts recorded yesterday about Trump regime flooding cities with unwanted and unnecessary ICE agents. More violence, more suffering, more chaos, more tragedies. 5 times more federal agents invading Minneapolis than its entire police dept.

ICE and CBP agents are out of control and put everyone in danger.

We're calling for ICE agents to withdraw from Minneapolis, and for Congress to rein in ICE’s abuses in our communities.

ICE continues to terrorize our communities, including detaining preschoolers and violently attacking people in the streets. Enough is enough.

No matter the weather, we’re not letting up. Tell Congress to stop increasing funds to ICE now at aclu.org/stop_ice_attacks-

Today marks the 53rd anniversary of Roe v. Wade—a ruling that affirmed women’s right to have control over our own bodies.

Four years ago, a MAGA-influenced Supreme Court overturned it. Women now have fewer rights, and many have died after being denied essential reproductive healthcare.

In New Jersey, ICE has rounded up American teenagers and put children in danger.

I will not vote to fund DHS and ICE, and I do not support any new detention centers in New Jersey, but must continue to stand up and use our voice to stop this agency that is out of control.

If the president invokes the Insurrection Act, even more harm would descend on our communities.

Congress must rein in the Trump administration's already dangerous abuses in Minnesota.

With soaring healthcare premiums and grocery prices that keep climbing, Trump focus on yet another pointless use of force against a long-time ally is not only deeply unpopular but would undermine NATO benefitting Trump’s buddy, Vladimir Putin.

In 2003, as part of a massive crackdown on civil liberties, Congress passed a bill creating the Department of Homeland Security, and with it, ICE.

Since then, ICE agents have wreaked havoc on our communities. Enough is enough.

An ICE agent shot and killed Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis. This news is devastating. ICE must immediately withdraw its 2,000 agents from Minnesota and Congress must block any new funding to immigration enforcement.

Members of Congress have the right to visit ICE facilities unannounced — it's their job and their constitutional responsibility.
