Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife.

While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE.

This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

House Republicans voted to kick 16 MILLION people off their healthcare.

These are not careers, they are ways to give back to community.

Reach out to your local elected and share some love, many of us are rattled by the Minnesota murders and shootings.

There are widespread reports of ICE agents abducting people while masked, without warrants or identification. Due to recent events, we strongly advise: do not open your door or car for anyone you don’t know. That’s the message. No need to elaborate.
