WASHINGTON (WCAX) - Sen. Bernie Sanders condemned the recent actions of federal agents in Minneapolis during remarks on the Senate floor Wednesday night. “America is not and must never be about federal agents shooting American citizens down in cold blood, breaking down doors to arrest people, or sending 5-year-olds to detention centers -- all in clear violation of our Constitution,” Sanders said. Lawmakers in Vermont and several other states are also looking at reforms for federal agents. A pair of Senate bills at the Statehouse would ban agents from wearing masks and also restrict ICE arrests in “sensitive” locations like schools, churches, and courthouses. Copyright 2026 WCAX.
