U.S. Rep. LaMonica McIver was indicted Tuesday on federal charges alleging she impeded and interfered with immigration officers outside a New Jersey detention center in May during a chaotic shoving match in which the mayor of Newark was arrested.
“While people are free to express their views for or against particular policies, they must not do so in a manner that endangers law enforcement and the communities those officers serve,” Acting U.S. Attorney for New Jersey Alina Habba said in a statement on X announcing the grand jury indictment.
