The requirement of a warrant based on probable cause to enter a person’s home is a touchstone of the Bill of Rights. According to John Adams, the British practice of issuing “general writs” authorizing unbounded searches of homes led to the “first Act of opposition” in the Revolution.

American trailblazer Rosa Parks was born 113 years ago today.

Rosa Parks took a stand by taking a seat. Her tenacity and bravery helped reignite the Civil Rights Movement. Let us keep up her fight to push our country towards justice for all.

This would be the first ICE detention center in New England afaik
In the past week we've learned ICE has secured property to build human warehouses in Merrimack, NH and Williamsport, MD. Just some facts I think bear repeating.

Rep. Jason Crow on ICE/CBP expansion: "They have hired people without background checks. They have hired people without training. They have no standards for the use of force. They have created a law enforcement agency that's filled with people that want to abuse our community."

Hugo Lowell told MSNOW that the Trump administration expects that the murder of Alex Pretti will "blow over and go away." They believe that Americans will forget about it in a week or so.

Americans must be eyes wide open that blocking the DHS funding bill will not shut down ICE.

ICE is now sitting on a massive slush fund it can tap, whether or not we pass a funding bill.
Federal agents cannot murder people in broad daylight and face zero consequences.

I will NOT support the DHS bill as it stands.

The DHS bill needs to be split off from the larger funding package before the Senate—Republicans must work with us to do that.

I’ll keep fighting to rein in DHS and ICE.

We want to set the record so he is remembered for what he did. Alex put his body between a woman and imminent danger (murderous thugs(ICE)), and he lost his life.
