Aliya Rahman, a guest of Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, was arrested by Capitol police during President Trump‘s State of the Union address. Rahman is a US citizen living in Minneapolis who was invited by Representative Omar to highlight the impact of immigration enforcement on ordinary people.
Back in January, Rahman was forcibly removed from her car and dragged by immigration agents in Minneapolis. According to The Guardian, she had told officers at the time that she was disabled and trying to get to a doctor, which was why she hadn’t moved her car. The incident left her with shoulder injuries.
