Ordinary Minnesotans aren’t allowing themselves and their neighbors to be denied their basic human and constitutional rights, and they’re beginning to get results. But talk is cheap – we must keep pushing until ICE is out of Minnesota.

My internship on Capitol Hill inspired me to pursue a career in public service. If you're interested in a similar path, join my team this summer! Applications are now open for my Washington, Wilmington, and Dover internships. Apply here: www.coons.senate.gov/services/res...
End the roving patrols. Enforce Accountability. Masks off, and body cameras on. These are the reforms Senate Democrats need to see to ICE and Border Patrol before the Homeland Security bill can move forward.
Two Democratic congressmembers have been physically attacked in the last week – and not only are Trump, Vance, and this administration not trying to lower the temperature, they’re fanning the flames. This administration needs to stop inciting violence against people who disagree with them.
A man attacked Minneapolis Rep. Ilhan Omar, spraying an unknown substance with a strong odor toward her, just seconds after the Democratic congresswoman called for DHS Secretary Kristi Noem to resign and urged the abolishment of ICE. https://cnn.it/49Z8Kzz
There are plenty of simple, commonsense things the administration could do if they wanted to de-escalate and show that they take seriously the profound and grave harm that their ICE and CBP agents have caused in Minnesota. To start, they need to get out of Minneapolis.

Sen. Chris Coons: "We've got our President saying things that essentially amount to 'Alex Pretti deserved it because he was carrying a gun'—a gun he had a permit to carry…A striking change from the strong defense of 2nd amendment rights we typically hear from Republicans."
DHS doesn’t exist to be Trump’s political shock troops, or on call to threaten states and cities into compliance with this administration’s unconstitutional demands.
ICE said it was in Minnesota to enforce immigration laws. Now, AG Bondi says they won’t leave unless Minnesota hands over its voter rolls and citizens’ personal information.
I’m voting no on DHS funding. The horrifying killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti show that Department of Homeland Security is out of control, and Congress needs to put up more guardrails that restore transparency and oversight.
Good. If you build an AI that makes child pornography on demand for anyone in the world to use, you should be held accountable. I’m glad the EU is stepping up and investigating if the Trump administration won’t.

Alex Pretti was gunned down in cold blood, and it will take a lot to undo the harm and terror imposed on the people of Minneapolis and across the country.
On National Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember over 6 million Jews systematically killed by the Nazis. Antisemitism, Holocaust denial, and toxic rhetoric are on the rise around the world and here in America. We must stand against hate and recommit to protecting human dignity.
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.
I’m proud to join the Stop Excessive Force in Immigration Act with @captmarkkelly.bsky.social and Senator Gallego to create commonsense requirements that ICE agents use body cameras and clearly identify themselves without masks, just like cops on the beat have to do.
ICE agents should be held to the same standards as law enforcement officers who patrol our communities every day–but they’re not, and the horrific killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti are the result.
This is not what Delaware stands for. This is not what America stands for. spotlightdelaware.org/2026/01/22/j...
Detaining and deporting Victor is cruel. It punishes a man with disabilities and shows a blatant disregard for basic human decency. I call on immigration authorities to immediately release Victor and grant him asylum.
Victor Acurio Suárez came to the U.S. fleeing gang violence in Ecuador, where he was beaten and left for dead. He came here seeking the American Dream, hopeful for a life free from violence.
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.
