Trump’s lawless federal agents are trampling on our Constitution and terrorizing our communities. I wrote a bill to give Americans the legal tools they need to hold ICE and CBP accountable when their agents break the law and violate our Constitutional rights.

Merkley, Salinas Lead New Bill to Hold ICE, CBP Accountable for Abusing Americans’ Constitutional Rights - Merkley

Washington, D.C. – Today, Oregon’s U.S. Senator Jeff Merkley and U.S. Representative Andrea Salinas (OR-06) introduced new legislation to hold U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Custom...

Across the country, people are rising up to protest this administration and its abuses. Sending agents to arrest journalists for reporting on those protests is an egregious violation of the first amendment.

Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govJan 28(source)

As we fight in the Senate to hold this administration accountable, to the people of Minnesota: thank you for your strength.

Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govJan 28(source)

Both Alex Pretti and Renee Good were killed while exercising their constitutional rights. This is CLEARLY a civil rights issue. But beyond that, allowing DHS to investigate itself is a clear conflict of interest. We need an independent investigation— justice must be served.

No civil rights violation probe into latest Minnesota shooting, sources tell MS NOW

As DHS takes over the federal investigation, current and former law enforcement agents warn that Trump’s DOJ isn’t committed to facts or fairness.

Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govJan 28(source)

He has no criminal history. He hasn’t threatened anyone. His arrest, detention, and now deportation is beyond cruel. This administration is failing the ideals of our nation daily. Victor should be returned to live in safety, with his family. 2/2

Judge orders disabled Delaware resident to return to Ecuador

Months after immigration officials detained a disabled Sussex County man, a federal judge ordered him to be returned Ecuador.

Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govJan 28(source)

When gangs beat and left him for dead in Ecuador, Victor Acurio Suárez sought asylum here in Delaware. He did everything the application asked of him. This is what the asylum system was designed for— to protect those who face persecution and violence in their home country. 1/2

The Fourth Amendment isn’t hard to understand. ICE’s claim that they can force themselves into homes without a judge’s warrant is a blatant violation and a clear abuse of power.

Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govJan 24(source)

Minnesotans, and all Americans, have been made less safe by ICE's reckless and unlawful behavior. I refuse to support this current package of funding bills as federal agents shoot Americans in the street. My full statement:

Senator Elissa Slotkin@slotkin.senate.govJan 22(source)

Freedom in America means our government can’t just enter our homes without proper legal authority. We were so sure of that we wrote it into our Constitution. President Trump and Secretary Noem don’t get to just throw those rights out the window on a whim.

Internal memo authorizes ICE to enter homes without judicial warrants in some cases

ICE authorized its officers to enter homes without judicial warrants in the cases of people with deportation orders, a sweeping reversal of longstanding rules, according to a whistleblower complaint.

Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govJan 22(source)

Walter from Clayton sat down with my team to ask the question on everyone's mind: if Republicans aren't willing to extend ACA tax credits, what ARE they going to do?

Senator Chris Coons@coons.senate.govJan 22(source)

ICE insists they’re only detaining “the worst of the worst.” This is who they’re actually detaining in Minneapolis. Do five year old children like Liam look like the worst of the worst to you?

Preschooler and three other students detained by ICE, school district leader says

The detentions of Columbia Heights students come after weeks of heightened concern and enforcement presence near and on Twin Cities school property.

Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govJan 16(source)

We need to wake up— we can't afford to keep pretending Trump doesn't mean what he says. Our Democracy isn't a joke. These are dangerous words that should be strongly condemned.

Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govJan 16(source)

Not enough money to lower your health care, food, or housing costs, but enough money for this?

'Department of War' rebranding could cost as much as $125M, hundreds of millions more if it becomes legal name: CBO

The Congressional Budget Office estimates it will cost taxpayers anywhere from $10 million to $125 million to rebrand the Defense Department as the "Department of War."

Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govJan 15(source)

Today marks the end of Open Enrollment, and for folks up and down our state, it means making impossible decisions in the face of rising costs Republicans refuse to address. Don't take it from me — listen to Vonda tell her story, a common one taking place all across America.

Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govJan 15(source)

Let Me Be Blunt: some strange things are circulating on social media. This week, I led a group of 8 Senators to demand accountability from big tech and better policies to keep people safe online.

Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govJan 13(source)

If this reporting is true, there is a SERIOUS problem at DHS that might explain the lack of discipline we're seeing play out across the country. Law enforcement officers should be held to the highest standard of the law, and we should be vetting them thoroughly.

From the streets of Minneapolis to the halls of the Fed, this administration’s clear and brazen belief that it can impose its will without guardrails is dangerous for our safety and our economy. I’ll keep doing everything I can in Congress to hold them accountable.

Vaccines have saved countless lives from preventable diseases. Fanning the flames of vaccine conspiracy theories and recklessly changing vaccine guidance threatens the health and safety of millions of children. www.wusa9.com/article/news...

CDC's new vaccine guidance faces backlash from pediatricians as 'dangerous' and 'reckless'

Medical leaders criticize the CDC's new vaccine guidance, calling it "dangerous," as it reduces recommended shots for children, raising public health concerns.
