Summary
Trump signed the Laken Riley Act into law, expanding mandatory detention for undocumented immigrants accused of theft-related crimes and allowing state attorneys general to sue over immigration enforcement.
Despite warnings from civil rights groups and some Democrats about racial profiling and due process violations, the bill received bipartisan support.
Critics like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Cory Booker argue that Democrats who backed it succumbed to conservative fear-mongering, potentially harming immigrants and undermining civil rights.
The Democrats vowed to fight with everything at their disposal though! And promised to never cooperate!
Except on key votes where Republicans need a few votes…
I just cannot with the DNC right now. They want to know why people don’t vote for them, it’s this. They aren’t willing to let the GOP fall on it’s face and call it out publicly.
