Schumer outlines Democrat demands to pass DHS funding billhttps://justthenews.com/government/congress/schumer-outlines-democrat-demands-pass-dhs-funding-billSenate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer on Wednesday outlined his party's list of demands for changes to the Department of Homeland Security's funding bill, which faces a Friday deadline to avoid a partial government shutdown.

The Democratic leader said the demands include requiring judicial warrants for immigration arrests, a ban on agents using masks while on duty, mandates on agents wearing body cameras and IDs and creating a “uniform code of conduct and accountability,” per Politico.
“These are common sense reforms, ones that Americans know and expect of law enforcement,” Schumer said. “If Republicans refuse to support them, they are choosing chaos over order, plain and simple. They are choosing to protect ICE from accountability over American lives.”
The proposals also include a prohibition on patrols by ICE officers and a requirement that they coordinate with local and state police, according to The Guardian.
My emphasis. The demand I highlighted sounds like it would empower sanctuary cities to block ICE/CBP arrests.
