The abuses of power we are seeing from ICE in Minneapolis and across the country are un-American and cannot be normalized. No one wants criminals in our country, but that’s not who this administration is going after. They’re targeting law-abiding immigrants who just want to support their families and live the American Dream. They’re going after immigrants who have asylum or other forms of legal protections to be in our country. They’re going after U.S. citizens who disagree with their tactics — and in less than a month, two of our fellow Americans in Minneapolis have been killed as a result.

Enough is enough. We need to rein in ICE’s out of control conduct.

As a member of the U.S. Senate, I have the responsibility to hold the Trump Administration accountable when I see abuses of power — like we are seeing from ICE right now. That is why I’ll be voting against any government funding package that contains the bill that funds this agency, until we have guardrails in place to curtail these abuses of power and ensure more accountability and transparency.

My personal guiding principle has always been “agree where you can and fight where you must.” And I believe this is a time when we must fight back. ... See MoreSee Less

As we await more information, this is what we know from this incredibly disturbing video:

This is the second person ICE has killed in Minneapolis this month.

7+ masked agents were restraining ONE person.

This individual was already on the ground with several agents on top of him when they shot and killed him at close range.

It’s hard to see how deadly use of force was in any way justified. ICE is out of control, and they need to be reined in NOW. Congress has a constitutional responsibility to hold this Administration accountable and stop these blatant abuses of people’s fundamental rights. ... See MoreSee Less
