As Immigration and Customs Enforcement continues its crackdown in Minneapolis and President Donald Trump threatens to invoke the Insurrection Act, Democrats are targeting the money Republicans gave to beef up the agency as a way to slow the agency’s aggressive deportation push.
Some have called on Congress to pull funding for ICE as a way to rein in the agency. The calls have intensified after the shooting of Renee Good in Minnesota by an ICE agent, which sparked protests. The Trump administration has refused ot change tactics and surged even more officers into the area to make deportation arrests.
