88,359 New Yorkers have already lost their coverage after Trump and Republicans made the largest cuts to health care in history, and an estimated 450,000 New Yorkers will lose their health care by 2034. @lawler4ny, it's time to invest in care, not ICE! #FundCareNotICE #ReconciliationBill

@BrianFitzUSA, Due to Republicans' devastating cuts to American health care, 42,000 Pennsylvanians are at risk of losing their Medicaid coverage, and 378,342 Pennsylvanians cannot afford coverage without health care tax credits. It's time to invest in care, not ICE. #FundCareNotICE #ReconciliationBill

93 hospitals, nursing homes, and care facilities across California are reducing services, laying off workers, closing their doors, or are at risk of doing so, stranding entire communities without essential care. @RepDavidValadao: Support local economies and communities by investing in care, not ICE! #FundCareNotICE #ReconciliationBill

.@repgabeevans, Colorado hospitals are expected to lose $8.2 billion in Medicaid funding, $79 million in ACA funding due to the cuts, and $444,962,991 in state hospital funding cuts. Our local economies need investments in care, not ICE! #FundCareNotICE #ReconciliationBill

URGENT 🚨: TONIGHT or TOMORROW Congress may vote on the reconciliation package, incl. up to $70 billion for ICE & CBP. More money with no restrictions means more violence. TAKE ACTION | Tell Congress to reject any new funds for ICE and CBP's violence: immigrantjustice.org/stopice

Today I visited Delaney Hall as part of my congressional oversight duties, meeting with both those who run the facility and privately with people being held there. After seeing who is being held and the conditions under which they’re detained, I believe most Americans would agree that this facility is a moral stain on our community. In fact, the majority of the people we encountered have NO criminal charges or the kind of violence or criminality that Donald Trump said he was going to be focusing his attention on. This is unacceptable to me. I’ll keep demanding this facility be closed now and to end this administration’s chaotic and cruel immigration policy. I will not vote to give another dollar to ICE.

I choose to help people, all of us. I want Americans to voice their outrage as we did after the deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Let’s work to stop this legislative giveaway to ICE in the coming weeks. The lawlessness that continues must end. END

And in a few days, Republicans in the Senate will try and push forward tens of billions of dollars of more money for ICE with zero reforms and accountability. They won’t spend a dollar to help with your health care, grocery bills, or gas. That’s the choice before America right now. (12/13)

The armed agents pushed through the crowd, throwing several people onto the street. I ran over and stood between the ICE convoy and the crowd, trying to keep physical separation to prevent even more serious clashes. The last vehicle had an agent with a pepper ball gun and he started firing at our feet and past me towards the crowd. (7/13)

We need to focus on solving the problem, but here’s what is standing in the way. It would be easy for ICE and GeoGroup to improve the conditions in the detention center. They could hire more doctors, but that’s less profit for GeoGroup. They could have better food or fix the extreme heat, but that’s less profit. (11/13)

The detainees also told me about how the court system for them is a farce. They showed me a document that shows that a single judge has 74 cases before them in one day (about 1 every 5 min). This has caused many of them to be stuck in detention for 10 months or more. (4/13)

My heart broke to see Americans fighting Americans in our streets yesterday. As I saw ICE agents tackling civilians and firing pepper balls into the crowd, I was overwhelmed by how broken we’ve become. We cannot normalize this violence. Here’s what happened at Delaney Hall: THREAD

Today, I visited the Delaney Hall Detention Facility for congressional oversight. Detainees have been on strike since last Friday, demanding humane conditions after reports of spoiled foods, freezing temperatures, and inadequate medical care. Every person deserves dignity, safety, and basic human rights.
