Americans donβt want to see people who have contributed to communities for decades deported.
Make no mistake, the Trump Admin has not changed. They want their cruel mass deportation campaign out of the headlines while ICE continues to target our communities.
Americans are rejecting Donald Trumpβs mass deportation assault on America. Americans donβt want to see students who are good enough and safe enough to perform at the U.S. Capitol and Carnegie Hall deported. Americans donβt want a five-year locked up at a trailer prison.
The GΓ‘mez-CuΓ©llar family has been reunited.
We are grateful for the release of the GΓ‘mez-CuΓ©llar family and we will not stop until we #FreeOurChildren. All of them.
The GΓ‘mez-CuΓ©llar family has been released. We are taking them now to reunite with their son Antonio.
When I returned to the Dilley trailer prison today, I brought my colleagues in Congress to meet with the children and families and to bear witness to their stories.
The GΓ‘mez-CuΓ©llar family has been released from Dilley! We just picked them up.
Antonio and Caleb GΓ‘mez-CuΓ©llar went from performing with the Mariachi Oro vocalists before Congress to being imprisoned by ICE. I am doing everything in my power to make sure the boys and their family return home safely. #FreeOurChildren
Her detention exposes the Trump Adminβs machine of cruelty that is attacking the free press and violating our rights. This lawlessness and cruelty must end.
ICE arrested a journalist yesterday without a warrant.
She is an asylum seeker, has valid work permits, and is married to a U.S. citizen.

Despite her removal, Trumpβs cruel mass deportation campaign rages on. The Congress must hold her and her successor accountable.
She was never qualified for the role, and she proved it during her tenure. Under her leadership, ICE has targeted our communities, killed U.S. citizens including a San Antonio resident, sent hundreds of children to a trailer prison, and abused her power.
Kristi Noem operated without regard for the rule of law or basic decency as DHS Secretary. She denied reality, including the fact that U.S. citizens have been arrested and detained.
Americans do not want and cannot afford another forever war. For 25 years, U.S. servicemembers have sacrificed so much because of regime change wars in the Middle East. Trump is now asking yet another generation to do the same.
How is this America first? I am voting against Trump's war with Iran.
The single biggest buyer of crude oil from the Persian Gulf is China - as much as 40 percent.
This certainly looks like the United States will be subsidizing and protecting oil shipments to China.
The President just announced that the United States government will provide insurance and U.S. Navy escorts for oil tankers in the Middle East after causing a regional crisis by going to war with Iran.
Very few, if any, of these tankers are coming to the United States.
The Trump Administration needs to do more than just offer travel tips to Americans stranded and in danger in the Middle East.
If other countries can send planes to evacuate their citizens then our country should be able to as well!
Secretary Rubio's remarks indicate that Israel put U.S. forces in harm's way by insisting on attacking Iran. And the administration was complicitβjoining their war instead of talking them down.
This is unacceptable of the President, and unacceptable of a country that calls itself our ally.
Trump ripped up the Iran Nuclear Deal in his first term. Then he used the threat of Iran gaining nuclear capabilities as a justification for war.
We need to get back to the negotiating table, block Trumpβs war that taxpayers do not want, and protect American troops.
Congress must continue to work to end the scourge of gun violence in our country.
A horrific shooting in Austin early this morning outside a popular bar took the lives of three people and injured fourteen more.
No one should fear facing violence on a night out. The victims and their families are in my thoughts and I am praying for the recoveries of those hospitalized.
Rather than making life affordable for Americans, the President has dragged our country into yet another war in the Middle East. When Congress returns, we must immediately vote on the War Powers Resolution to stop this war that the American people did not vote for and do not want. My full statement:
I am urging Secretary Noem and DPS Director Martin to immediately release all body-camera and dash-camera footage, along with radio, text, and phone communications from officers before and after the shooting.
For nearly a year, ICE and Texas DPS covered up an ICE shooting that left San Antonian Ruben Ray Martinez dead. His family deserves justice and the public has the right to know the truth.
One teen boy I met had excruciating stomach pain and was made to wait several hours to see a doctorβhe had appendicitis. ICE cannot meet the basic needs of the children itβs imprisoning. Dilley must close and we must #FreeOurChildren.
There have been at least 11 medical emergencies at Dilley trailer prison requiring EMS. I have heard story after story of ICE failing to provide proper medical attention to children and families. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...
Shah Alam's death is a tragedy. Trumpβs mass deportation campaign is costing lives. It must be stopped.
I am devastated to hear of the passing of Nurul Amin Shah Alam. He was a refugee of the Rohingya genocide living in Buffalo, New York. Border Patrol agents wrongfully detained him and dumped him on the street in brutal winter conditions. Blind and walking with a cane, he died trying to get home.
