Juneteenth is the commemoration of the end of slavery in the United States. As we celebrate, we must also recognize the work ahead. House Democrats remain committed to the fight for equality and justice for all.

When I asked Secretary Mullin about American citizens being detained by ICE, he told me where he comes from “we’ve got a lot of BROWN PEOPLE.” Rene Good and Alex Pretti were killed and they were not “brown,” Mr. Secretary. We need safeguards in place.

It’s disgraceful that ICE agents have used tear gas and chemical agents on and around children. That’s why @BennieGThompson, @RepShriThanedar, and I sent a letter to DHS, raising concerns on the agency's use of chemical agents on kids. Thank you, ProPublica for highlighting not
