ICE agents threatened to beat up a Seattle small business owner, married to a citizen, with NO criminal record unless he signed a "voluntary" departure.
I'm told there were cameras in the room.
I'm demanding any video and that Eduardo be brought home immediately.

BREAKING: Senate Republicans just confirmed Jay Clayton as Director of National Intelligence—an election-denier and Trump sycophant.
The GOP should be ashamed for enabling Trump’s dangerous and deranged conspiracy theories.
Trump is pushing a policy that will INCREASE child care costs for low-income families.
I am forcing a vote THIS WEEK to overturn Trump's higher-cost policies.
Every Senator will cast a vote on a simple question: should working parents pay more for child care, or less?
When America's top health official is constantly pushing conspiracy theories, trust in public health takes a hit—and we're seeing the consequences in real time.
There are record measles cases for a reason.
RFK Jr. is a threat to public health & should RESIGN.
RFK Jr. says he has the cyclosporiasis outbreak under control.
Except he’s fired and pushed out thousands of CDC staff we desperately need. Trump and RFK Jr. made this situation worse. FIRE RFK Jr.
Make government competent and functional again.
I hope others in Washington state will join me in calling for Eduardo’s immediate return home so that the courts can fairly consider his case.
I am demanding that DHS return Eduardo to Washington state so that he may receive due process and have access to counsel—flying Eduardo to Texas away from his lawyers to try and deport him is fundamentally wrong and un-American.
For the federal government to waste its resources to forcefully detain and deport Eduardo and tear apart an American family is plain sick. Our immigration enforcement should be focused on violent criminals and keeping Americans safe—deporting hardworking people like Eduardo makes no one safer.
On Thursday, ICE needlessly detained Eduardo Aguirre Esparza, a local Seattle small business owner with no criminal history. This is a man who is married to an American citizen and with deep ties to our local community who was working hard to pursue a legal pathway to lawful permanent residence.
I am deeply grateful for the efforts of our local police, first responders, and the staff at Harborview.
I am continuing to follow the situation closely. I am hopeful the perpetrators will be brought to justice as quickly as possible.
This is horrific news. My heart is with the families and loved ones of those who were killed as well as those who were injured, and the entire community who is feeling the pain of this violence.

🚨Serious proof of MAJOR ELECTION FRAUD! 🚨
If my colleagues want to work together to rebuild the wildfire prevention infrastructure Trump dismantled—great.
But I’ll tell you what I won't do: let them pass resolutions to insult our Canadian friends or suck up to a President who does nothing but threaten our neighbors.
Five months into Trump's war of choice with Iran, and he is threatening escalation and war crimes and suggesting this could be another forever war.
And now he wants $70 billion MORE—and for us to just trust him it’ll all work out fine? No way.
Trump wants to cut VA research by $43 million. When I asked what research the administration wanted to cut—prosthetics, cancer—Trump officials couldn’t give me a straight answer.
I’ll be fighting to reject Trump’s cuts to VA research.
This is HISTORIC political corruption and EVERY American should be outraged.
This isn't Trump's money—these are TAXPAYER dollars!
Trump has been stealing money from blue states all along, and now his own lawyers have finally ADMITTED it in court. Time for accountability.
All of America has fallen in love with Seattle's most famous raccoon—a weird little guy named Jimothy.
But Jimothy's friends shouldn't have to lose their homes.
We can all speak up to protect their habitats.
Disturbing details are coming out about the ICE agent who fatally shot an innocent man in Maine, and it begs the question—why on earth is ICE hiring people like this?
Reminder: Republicans BLOCKED every basic reform & accountability measure I pushed.
Trump wants to spend $1.5 TRILLION on war, and is asking for $70 BILLION on top of that, all while his sons are profiting from major defense contracts.
Are we investing in national security? Or are we investing in the Trump family’s portfolio?
Ten years later, sweaty and slurring, he's still promising a health care plan he's never delivered on.
Instead, Americans got the highest health care costs ever and hospitals laying off staff or shutting down entirely.
All thanks to Trump's health care sabotage & Medicaid cuts.
