The idea that the government needs a judicial warrant to enter your home is obvious to anyone who's read our Constitution.
Trump's ICE and CBP don’t get a pass to ignore our rights.
An ICE whistleblower told Congress that the Trump Admin. cut training for their new recruits on the use of force, firearms, and our basic Constitutional rights.
It's unacceptable. In what world does rapidly hiring thousands of agents while lowering these standards make us any safer?

Ranking Member @peters.senate.gov on @ms.now — The Trump Administration is basically thumbing their nose at the U.S. Constitution when it comes to DHS’ current immigration enforcement tactics.

Ranking Member @peters.senate.gov continues to lead HSGAC Democrats' calls for DHS Secretary Noem to testify before the Homeland Security Committee.
Secretary Noem must take accountability for the department’s unlawful immigration enforcement actions. The American people deserve answers.
@peters.senate.gov led HSGAC Democrats in asking the Chairman to hold the Trump Admin accountable for its immigration enforcement actions. We thank him for calling for a hearing. The American people still need to hear from Secretary Noem, and we urge her to testify before the Committee.
I will be voting no on the DHS funding bill because it lacks necessary reforms to immigration enforcement.
Another person has been shot and killed by ICE officers in Minneapolis. The Trump Administration must turn the temperature down and stop this horrific violence.
ICE’s Minneapolis operations are not protecting the residents of the city, but are instead causing chaos and fear. Immediately, there needs to be a full and impartial investigation by local police into this incident, as well as the tragic death of Renee Good.
ICE’s secret memo authorizing agents to enter people’s homes and arrest them without a judicial warrant is unlawful. This Administration’s disregard for our Constitution threatens all of us. Our government is not above the laws it enforces.
Ranking Member @peters.senate.gov continues to push for a long-term extension of critical cybersecurity protections that safeguard our nation from threats posed by cybercriminals and foreign adversaries.
