Senate Democrats are working to pass the five funding bills that have bipartisan support and make changes to the DHS budget to add common-sense safeguards to rein in ICE’s very real and very dangerous abuses. The American people support law enforcement, a secure border, and safe communities — but they oppose the tactics ICE has used to terrorize neighborhoods and kill American citizens. Donald Trump is 17 points underwater on the issue of immigration, and a majority of voters — including 62% of independent voters — believe that increases in ICE funding are a bad use of taxpayer dollars. DNC Chair Ken Martin released the following statement:“Senate Democrats are united in doing what is right — refusing to give ICE a blank check with zero accountability. As we honor the memories of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, I call on Senate Republicans to find their conscience and work with Democrats to restore safety, justice, and accountability to the Department of Homeland Security.”
