We have to keep pushing for a better country than Trump’s out-of-control ICE is inflicting in Minneapolis. I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again – I am NOT voting to fund DHS under these current conditions.

Reads a lot like “hand over sensitive voter information or the chaos continues.”

The killing of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis was horrific and has rightly drawn deep concern from both sides of the aisle. My full statement on the shooting and the appropriations process:

We saw with our own eyes a U.S. citizen killed by Trump’s federal agents. Yet this admin continues to spread lies. What must happen now: a full and independent investigation; Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller must resign or be fired; and not another dollar for Noem’s DHS without real accountability.

ICE is using violence to stoke fear in our communities. It’s horrifying and unconscionable. We need answers and accountability immediately.
- JR
I’m a no on the DHS bill. Congress must step up to protect the rights of all Americans, enact needed safeguards, and ensure accountability. ICE is supposed to enforce the law and protect the public, not abuse your rights and trample on the people they serve.

Trump Administration leaders have supported & spread a culture & permission structure for police state tactics—an out of control agency. 4

Make no mistake that this purposeful violence & lawlessness comes from top leaders of DHS & ICE. The secret ICE Director memo I revealed last week encourages blatant Constitutional violations. Official mass quotas for deportation incite misconduct. 3/
- RB
Law & basic decency require simple straightforward reforms—like requirements for body cameras, clear identification, judicial warrants, stopping brutality, mass sweeps, arrests in churches & similar places, breaking into homes. 2/

Proud to join a strong consensus of Democratic colleagues saying NO to the DHS spending bill without strict restraints & reforms on ICE. 1/

Read these stories from people who knew Alex, his Green Bay high school classmates, and people he did choir with. He cared deeply for people and should still be alive. Alex and his family deserve nothing short of justice and accountability. www.jsonline.com/story/news/2...

Alex Pretti, 37, was an ICU nurse who cared for veterans. The Trump Admin. labelled him a ‘domestic terrorist.’ You be the judge.

Such mistreatment would be further evidence of the inhumane conditions at the Baltimore Holding Facility — something I have repeatedly called them out on. We will continue investigating & update when we know more. [2/2]

Like many of you, I have seen this video, and I'm demanding answers. My team has reached out to ICE repeatedly and have yet to get clear answers. [1/2]

Like many Marylanders, I am horrified by what this video appears to show. My team has demanded answers about these reported inhumane conditions. The content suggests yet another another instance of ICE's utter depravity. We cannot let another PENNY go to Donald Trump's ICE.

Kristi Noem is a liar. Kristi Noem is incompetent. Kristi Noem is vicious. Kristi Noem must be fired.

Even the WSJ editorial page calls out the lies! “The Trump Administration spin on this simply isn’t believable. Stephen Miller, the political architect of the mass deportation policy, called Pretti a ‘domestic terrorist.’ He was a nurse without a criminal record.”

Scenes from this weekend’s resource fair in Salem, NJ. Shout out to the vendors, Salem City, the 3rd legislative district, and the Salem County Inter Agency Council for helping us get resources around housing, food, utilities, mental health, and more to people who need them.

Reminder: Republicans voted to give ICE a $75 billion slush fund, a budget larger than most militaries. Every Democrat voted NO. We need immigration enforcement that is sane, upholds our rights, treats people with dignity and basic respect, and focuses on violent criminals.
- TD
Clearly, the Trump Administration cannot be trusted to investigate their own agents' pattern of brutality that has led to them murdering two Americans. I’m leading the effort to force independent investigations into this lawlessness. Americans deserve the truth. No more lies.

ICE is killing Americans in broad daylight. Breaking up families. Sowing fear and chaos into our communities. The right needs to wake up. This is not America. We cannot give DHS and ICE a blank check for terror and violence.
- AK
Two Minnesotans—Renee Good, a devoted mother of three, and Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse who served our veterans—are gone, killed by federal agents. The Trump Administration is trying to block fair, transparent investigations into their deaths. We need justice and cannot let anyone hide the truth.

There are big wins in this package—including important measures to lower costs for families, fund medical research, give a pay raise to our troops, and deliver crucial investments in Delaware communities. They shouldn’t be held up because of ICE’s horrendous actions.

We can and should strip out the DHS bill and pass the other five appropriations bills under consideration this week.

I’m a no on the DHS appropriations bill. Working hard this week to increase accountability, transparency, and independent oversight of immigration enforcement, while avoiding a shutdown that complicates FEMA funding just as Delawareans and millions of Americans are digging out of a major storm.

Trump’s lawless federal agents are terrorizing communities in Oregon and across the country. Kristi Noem must go, and we must not give another dollar to ICE.

They think the American people are stupid. It's been 2 days since the killing of Alex Pretti & this Admin continues to lie about what we all saw on video. Americans are horrified & don't want their tax dollars funding this brutality. Not another dime to this lawless operation.

Pretty stunning to think that the subject of an order to block destruction of evidence is the U.S. government. It’s TrumpWorld.

Virginians: Your voice matters to me. We’re understandably hearing from a lot of folks right now. My team is doing its best to answer every call, but if you don’t want to wait on hold, you can always send a message through my website – every single one gets read.

Americans can see with their own eyes. ICE and those under their command are not acting as responsible law enforcement agencies. They are recklessly inciting violence at the whims of the President. They must be reined in. I’ll be voting no on the Homeland Security funding bill.

Don't forget: When Republicans passed their Big Disastrous Bill, they took money out of your wallet and your healthcare to fund this lawlessness and the killing of American citizens.

There have been 3 homicides in Minneapolis this year. Trump’s agents committed two of them: a mom and a nurse who cared for our Veterans. Stay the hell out of our cities.

We are united in outrage. This needs to be a point where we say ENOUGH and refuse to vote on this DHS funding bill as it currently stands.

When the Vice President tells law enforcement they’re above the law, people die. A U.S. citizen was killed in cold blood and the message from the White House is clear: zero consequences. This won’t stop without accountability.

I visited Every Meal, which helps feed hungry kids in Minnesota, and spoke with Doug, who has been volunteering there for years. The volunteers at Every Meal and so many people across our state are standing up to help our neighbors being hurt by ICE’s attacks.

You may have voted for him. You may have supported what he said Operation Metro Surge was going to be. But it’s okay to say you changed your mind. It’s okay to say he’s gone too far.

As California’s first Senator on the Agriculture Committee in more than 30 years, it was my honor to address CA farmers at the 46th annual EcoFarm Conference in Monterey County! CA farmers and farm workers are facing unprecedented challenges, and I’m proud to be their champion in Washington.

Kristi Noem and her department’s latest attempt to mislead the American public regarding the brutal and unjustified killing of Alex Pretti is deeply shameful, and she must be impeached and removed from office immediately.
- JR
She has also violated the public trust by wasting millions in taxpayer dollars to put herself in advertisements, buy two expensive luxury jets, and give government contracts to firms with ties to her political operations, all while terrorizing American communities.
- JR
She’s either too incompetent to rein in the agency under her purview, or she endorses the blatant constitutional violations being committed.
- JR
Kristi Noem has been an abject failure leading the Department of Homeland Security for the last year – and the abuses of power we’re seeing from ICE are the latest proof that she has lost control over her own department and staff. 🧵

The most patriotic thing we can do for the country that we love right now is for everyone, regardless of political party, to call and demand change from those who infringe on our Freedom.

This is an attack on ALL of our freedoms as Americans. We're not the Land of the Free when we can't walk our dog or take our kid to school without federal forces looming. We’re not the Land of the Free when the rights guaranteed in our Constitution are shredded.

Since the killing of Renee Good and Alex Pretti by federal forces, I have heard from Michiganders of all political persuasions — including folks who actively avoid politics. That's because Michiganders see themselves in what is happening in Minnesota. And it is not just isolated to Minnesota.
