Release RAS Baraka, hold ICE accountable

To: Sen. Schumer, Sen. Gillibrand, Rep. Velázquez

From: A verified voter in Brooklyn, NY

May 9

What is going on with ICE in this country? Is this Trump’s personal SS? Do we now have an independent paramilitary organization that is accountable to no one except the president? Is this democracy? You need to make a loud protest at Newark mayor RAS Baraka being held in federal custody after trying to tour the ICE detention center in his jurisdiction. These arrests are a spectacle of cruelty and brute force of “law”, a convenient distraction from the venal corrupt dismantling of the federal government. What are you going to do about it?
