Schumer outlines Democrat demands to pass DHS funding bill

Senate 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.

They're trying to kneecap ICE. Demand they cooperate with local law enforcement, and then... stop local law enforcement from coorperating with ICE.
When you look up "two-faced" in the dictionary, Chuck Schumer's portraits are both there.

Since he's for the red bolded text, I wonder if he'd be okay with mandating a prison sentence with at least a 5+ year sentence for anyone who doxes an agent or harrasses/assaults an agent's family?

The way you asked the question tells me that even a retired fictional spirit guide has a pretty shrewd notion of what the answer actually is...
:hi5: :cheers1:

And of course, it was all grandstanding by Schumer. Not only did the Senate pass the funding bill, but ICE was already funded through 2029 in Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" (silly me, even I forgot that). :thatsright:

illegal aliens didn't fill out proper paperwork when they invaded our country, why bother with paperwork to remove them?
a ban on agents using masks while on duty
This, coming from the side that was threatening people with arrest for not wearing a face mask just 5 years ago...

If I'm not mistaken, there's a vast number of people in the US with deportation orders already against them. Why hamstring ICE even more in trying to remove these people?

The loss of Dem voters, current and future.

How about 30 years?
