It's past time to rein in ICE and enforce the laws, including that ICE and private for-profit detention facilities are subject to oversight and inspection.
It's also time to demand that Kristi Noem resign. If she will not, then Congress must initiate impeachment.
Do you believe cabinet appointees should break the law with impunity?
ICE is violating the law. Arrests and raids are being used as an instrument of terror, intimidation, and partisan revenge.
Unconscionable cruelty and human rights violations are being perpetrated against innocent people, both immigrants and American citizens.
Do you want to enable this cruelty and criminal abuse?
It is the law the members of Congress have the Legal Right to Enter Detention Facilities and Conduct Oversight. Yet today Reps. Nadler and Goldman were refused entry. Kristi Noem is now trying to defy the law by putting limits and delays on oversight.
Do you want to give away more of Congress's powers?
Please draw up legislation to require ICE agents to be unmasked and to show ID.
Insist that ICE respects Habeas corpus.
It is alarming to see this administration weaponising law enforcement and ICE against political rivals:
Is it okay with you that
Democratic electeds have been detained, arrested, charged, and lied about?
Consider:
Wisconsin Judge Hannah Dugan, NY Mayoral candidate Brad Lander, California Senator Alex Padilla, NY Mayor Ras Baraka, and NY Rep LaMonica McIver. What if they were Republicans?
What would you be saying if a Democratic administration did this to GOP politicians?
None of the law-breaking and cruel unconstitutional policies of ICE are making us safe or solving any problems.
You can do something.
Act now.
Rein in ICE with legislation.
Call on Kristi Noem to resign.
Impeach Trump.
Do oversight, expose abuse, make criminal referrals.
What you are now enabling by inaction will be a chapter of evil in history books. If you fail to act, you will incur endless shame.
