In NYC, criminals posing as ICE agents tied up a restaurant worker and bagged their head.
Trump’s policy of militarized, masked raids doesn’t stop crime. It encourages it.
Real ICE agents must identify themselves and stop turning law enforcement into a tool of fear. Public safety isn’t a costume.

Families are feeling the squeeze. Energy prices are up, & this should be the moment to double down on affordable, proven solutions, not pull the plug. Ending grants would break promises, waste taxpayer dollars, & force some families to choose between paying the electric bill or feed their families
Slashing $7B in Solar for All grants is a setback to working families and our clean energy future.
