Waldir Chirinos, a Union County resident, developed a high fever while detained at Delaney Hall. ICE took no action until he suffered a seizure.
At the hospital, he was restrained to his bed. His wife was denied any updates on his condition.
If you don’t believe ICE needs to be abolished then read this story:
The law is very clear: Members of Congress have a legal right to enter any DHS detention facility to conduct oversight at any time without prior notice.
Thankful for this ruling & will be back at Delaney Hall & EDC again & again to continue our oversight of this Admin.
Proud to receive an “A” on the End Citizens United legislative scorecard.
Every day we fight for the community I am so proud to represent - always putting you first.
The IRS improperly shared confidential tax information from thousands of Americans with DHS.
This breach of privacy is unacceptable & why I joined my CHC colleagues to demand answers from Treasury Secretary Bessent & the IRS & for them to notify every affected taxpayer immediately.
No one should feel unsafe going to their place of worship, but that is the atmosphere of fear that this Administration has created for our neighbors.
We will continue to fight to protect our communities, inform our residents of their rights and work to abolish ICE to the end.
And…..I occasionally FaceTime them when I’m with the people who they’ve helped just to let them know we are thinking of them - and always thankful for the work they do. 🫶
I’m so thankful for the team that delivers for our district every day. I love lifting up their work and telling anyone who will listen how fortunate I am to be in this work with them.
My Statement on Heights University Hospital:
My statement on Trump’s unauthorized attack on Iran.
What happened yesterday in Newark was outrageous and goes against what any legitimate law enforcement agency would do.
ICE must follow the law and be held accountable for recklessly putting people in our communities in danger.
Together, we’ll keep fighting for a stronger, fairer Hudson County. Forever thankful for the people and places that make this district what it is. 💪
📍State of the County with Hudson County Exec Craig Guy
🤝 I couldn't be more grateful to represent the place we all love so deeply alongside, my friend, Craig Guy.
Yet another blatant attempt by Trump and Republicans to interfere in elections because they know they would lose if they had to compete in a fair election tomorrow.
Removing necessary AI safeguards for military weapons would shake the conscience of our country. We cannot - and will not - allow it to happen.
Important that Anthropic rejected Hegseth’s pressure to allow the DOD to use their technology to enable mass surveillance or the development of weapons without human oversight.
Artists across NJ shape the culture that tells our story.🤝
I’ll always support local talent and celebrate the people & places that bring our community's story to life.
& for the next generation of artists… stay tuned! Our Congressional Art Competition application for high schoolers opens soon! 👀
This cruelty must end. The fight continues.
This is a tragedy and my heart breaks for Nurul Amin Shah Alam's family.
The difficult reality is that this is sadly unsurprising under the Trump Admin and complicit Republicans who empower ICE and CBP every day to apprehend, beat, and even kill our neighbors in broad daylight.
