All Americans expect and deserve a government that tells the truth and doesn’t murder its own citizens.   Over the next two weeks, Republicans must prioritize the safety of the American people above all else.   This reign of terror from DHS, Border Patrol and ICE cannot continue.
Democrats are demanding three very reasonable safeguards to protect the American people:   Get Border Patrol out of our cities. Independent investigations. No masks and more body cams.
Trump's IRS lawsuit is demanding $10 billion from taxpayers. $10 billion would pay for 4 months of ACA tax credits for millions who can't afford health care—because of him. In Trump's ideal world, you make him richer. While he makes you sicker and poorer.
Trump's ICE snatched this bright, happy 5-year-old from his driveway. They shipped him 1,300 miles to suffer, without his mother, in a squalid Texas detention center. And now he's growing ill. Democrats are fighting to end this cruelty. Liam is not a criminal. Let him go.

Trump’s illegal domestic deployments cost taxpayers $496 million—and counting. Including $21 million in Illinois. There’s no money for health care. But half a billion to waste on intimidating Americans in their own communities.
No one’s shocked the Trump Administration isn't pursuing a civil rights investigation into the killing of Alex Pretti. But everyone should be deeply disturbed. There is no lie they won't tell to evade accountability. Congress must force our watchdogs to hold independent investigations immediately.
MS NOW: No civil rights violation probe into latest MN 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.
Senate Republicans must be on the right side of history and help rein in Trump's lawless agents. No more hard-earned taxpayer dollars on ICE or Border Patrol. No more lies. We need guardrails against their abuses, independent investigations and accountability.
On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we mourn the six million Jews and millions of others targeted, abducted and murdered by the Nazi regime. Together, let us honor their memory by rooting out hate and antisemitism wherever we may see it. Never again.
Here it is. For the third time. I'm calling on DHS and DOJ's IGs to heed the public outcry and finally launch a joint task force to investigate the horrific pattern of brutality from Trump's agents, including the public execution of Alex Pretti. We demand accountability. Now.
Duckworth’s third letter to DHS and DOJ Inspectors General calling on the offices to heed the public outcry and finally launch a joint task force to investigate the horrific pattern of brutality from Trump’s DHS, Border Patrol and ICE agents, including the killing of Alex Pretti.

Clearly, the Trump Administration cannot be trusted to investigate their own agents' pattern of brutality that has led to them murdering two Americans. I’m leading the effort to force independent investigations into this lawlessness. Americans deserve the truth. No more lies.
There have been 3 homicides in Minneapolis this year. Trump’s agents committed two of them: a mom and a nurse who cared for our Veterans. Stay the hell out of our cities.
Trump Truth Social post.
Our independent watchdogs are failing the American people. ICE has attacked citizens, cops and kids in Chicago. They are killing people in Minneapolis. Then turn around and lie to our faces. If this pattern of abuse doesn't warrant a joint investigative task force, what does??
CBS News: Federal government watchdogs deny Duckworth's request for joint probe of immigration agents' use of force
“Please get the truth out about our son.” Alex Pretti, a VA ICU nurse, was killed by ICE while trying to protect a woman being assaulted. Trump calls him a “monster” and “domestic terrorist.” Trust your own eyes. Unlike Trump, the video doesn’t lie.
Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti.
ICE just violently swarmed, shot and killed another person in Minnesota. They shot him again and again, long after he stopped moving on the ground. ICE cannot be trusted. We need oversight. We need accountability. And. No. More. Funding.
More than 1,000 troops from NATO allies died alongside American servicemembers in Afghanistan. The only time Article V has ever been invoked was after 9/11, and NATO came to our aid without hesitation. To minimize the sacrifice of our allies' fallen heroes is disgusting.
CBS: Trump leaves NATO allies "dumbfounded" and "disgusted" with remarks dismissing sacrifices in Afghanistan
Let me be clear: I cannot vote for legislation that gives ICE even more funding to terrorize our communities. Not after 2025 was the deadliest year on record to be in ICE custody in two decades. Not after they killed a mom in cold blood with zero accountability.
