Congresswoman Gwen Moore Statement on Violent, Reckless ICE Arrests in Milwaukee
“I am fully aware of ICE’s escalating presence in our community. ICE agents are showing up masked, dressed in police tactical gear, and using excessive force, including shattering car windows to carry out arrests. Their reckless tactics are terrorizing families and inflicting real harm on our residents, especially across the South Side. ICE is operating like a rogue agency, and its abuses make clear that serious reforms are long overdue. This is exactly why I refused to give this out‑of‑control agency one more penny.
My constituents should know they are entitled to due process in our country. Every person has rights, no matter their status. As Wisconsin’s Fourth District representative, I will continue conducting oversight and doing everything in my power to protect my constituents.”
