Washington, D.C. - Earlier this month and ahead of the murder of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, Congresswoman Marilyn Strickland (WA-10) slammed Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) for inciting violence, killing innocent citizens, and terrorizing the American public.
"This is domestic terrorism. American lives have become an afterthought to this Administration's ultimate goal of scaring people, declaring martial law, and using ICE as the President's personal police force," said Strickland. "They're going around Congress, they're disrespecting the rule of law, they are disrespecting our role as a check and balance, and the American people deserve so much better."
