Milwaukee Democratic Socialists of America condemn FBI arrest of Milwaukee County judge

The Milwaukee Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) condemn the FBI’s arrest of Judge Hannah Dugan, accused of obstructing ICE agents from taking a man into custody at the federal courthouse during the recent escalation in arrests of immigrants and minorities throughout the country at the behest of President Trump and his backers.

“ICE’s presence in our courthouse is an unconscionable assault on our public safety,” Milwaukee DSA leader Andy Barbour said. “We must all oppose this administration’s efforts to harm the immigrants in our community, as well as this administration’s attempts to intimidate those who fight for justice.”

The chapter will continue to support Dugan and others targeted by oppressive government forces in the days ahead.
