.ewarren unveils new immigration plan vowing to remake ICE ahead of planned weekend ICE raids
Ahead of Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent's planned arrest of thousands of undocumented migrants this weekend, 2020 presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren unveiled a sweeping new immigration reform plan on Thursday, which vows to"eliminate abusive enforcement" by decriminalizing illegal border crossings, as well as remodel ICE"from top to bottom.
Warren also vowed to create a Department of Justice task force to investigate the abuses perpetrated by the Trump administration against migrants if she is elected in 2020."Let there be no ambiguity on this: if you are violating the basic rights of immigrants, now or in the future, a Warren administration will hold you accountable," the senator warned.
Commenting on the raids, Trump told reporters:"I don't call them raids. I say they came in illegally. We're bringing them out legally. These are people where we have the papers, we've gone through the court system. They'll be starting fairly soon."
