Our public lands tell the story of America and we can’t let Trump rewrite that history. @SenatorHeinrich, @MazieHirono, @SenAngusKing, and @SenJeffMerkley are on the floor NOW:
Working families are already paying the price for President Trump's war with Iran.
He needs to reverse course and focus on pulling Americans out of our affordability crisis, rather than throwing billions of dollars towards an unnecessary war.
Grateful to @SenJeffMerkley for allowing me time to explain the con job that Trump has pulled when it comes to "enforcing the law." As I say: "It's a total misdirection to blame the county when the Department of Homeland Security isn't even following the law that they passed."
People don't know what's happening right now. ICE agents are immune to civil suits for constitutional violations, and now ICE is deputizing state and local cops all over America, cloaking them in this shield of immunity. Glad @SenJeffMerkley is on this issue
