Duckworth Reacts to Trump Removing Kristi Noem as DHS Secretary

[WASHINGTON, D.C.] - U.S. Senator Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) today issued the following statement after Donald Trump removed Kristi Noem from serving as Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary:

"Kristi Noem should've been fired a long, long time ago. Next, the Trump Administration needs to work with Democrats to enact the commonsense DHS reforms that the American people are crying out for.

"Helping prevent more Americans from being executed by their own government is the very least they can do."
