When Republicans took away health care from millions of families last year, they also gave ICE $75 billion, making it the highest-funded law enforcement agency in the U.S.
Now they want to give even more money to an ICE agency on the rampage?
Hell no.
I will vote no.

Now would be a good time to pass Senator Alex Padilla's VISIBLE Act.
It requires agents to have clear identification and bans non-medical face masks.
Renee Macklin Good should be alive today. Alex Pretti should be alive today.
Under Secretary Noem, ICE agents are armed, masked, and given license to do whatever they want.
I will vote against any government funding package that includes more funding for ICE.
Vermonters in Plainfield are still waiting for the federal resources they need to recover from the severe flooding in 2023 and 2024.
I hosted a town hall to hear more about the challenges Vermonters face and share how I’m working to make the recovery process more efficient.
Five times as many Vermonters have dropped their ACA health care plans this year compared to last year.
Millions of families around the country are going to be filled with anxiety that an accident or an unexpected illness could bankrupt them.
And it's because of President Trump.
Under Secretary Noem, ICE is no longer about immigration enforcement. It's about terrorizing communities.
Noem must go.
Congress must stop giving even more money to this agency on a rampage.

Another shocking murder in Minnesota by ICE—an agency that has become a paramilitary force terrorizing American communities. This must stop, immediately.
No more blank checks from Congress. Secretary Noem must resign.
ICE is out of control.
Under Secretary Noem’s leadership, rather than focusing on targeted immigration enforcement, ICE agents are demanding random people on the street “show their papers.”
She must resign.
President Trump didn’t get a peace prize so now he’s threatening to start a war.
President Trump is threatening war because of his fragile ego.
It’s stupid and dangerous.
On Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we must recommit ourselves to Dr. King's work of racial equality, human rights, and economic justice for all.
Only by working together can we fulfill the promise of America.
An update from Denmark on President Trump’s attempted land grab of Greenland.

So now President Trump says, “I may put a tariff on countries if they don’t go along with Greenland."
When he alienates our allies like this, it puts so much at risk.
It risks intelligence sharing. It risks alliances. It risks trade and open markets.
It makes America less safe.
First, the Pentagon attempted to force the press to agree to gag rules.
Now, they’re attempting to use Stars and Stripes—which is congressionally mandated to be independent—for propaganda.
An administration with nothing to hide doesn’t fear or attack the free press.
I’m pleased that my bipartisan bill with Senator Cornyn and our colleagues passed out of the Judiciary Committee.
It will help restore trust in our government by banning former Senate-confirmed government employees from lobbying on behalf of countries of concern to the U.S.
These are the words of a dictator.
Americans don’t want Greenland they want health care.
President Trump can find money to launch an attack in Venezuela. He can find money to bribe the people of Greenland. He can find money to give billionaires and corporations tax breaks.
But he can't find any money to protect your access to health care.
