Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. KHANNA. Mr. Speaker, no one in America is safe from ICE today. Joe Rogan said that ICE agents are acting as ``villains,'' stripping away freedoms from Americans. This agency has gone rogue. It is lawless, and it needs to be reined in.

The ICE agents who pepper sprayed an elderly couple in Minnesota need to be arrested and prosecuted. The ICE agents who dragged out a disabled woman from her car who was going to a doctor's appointment need to be arrested and prosecuted. The ICE agent who shot and killed Renee Good needs to be arrested and prosecuted.

When you have people in the MAGA base, when you have people like Joe Rogan talking about the lawlessness of a private police force--ICE acting as the President's private police force--then we know we have a crisis of freedom in this country. It is time to rein in this lawless agency.
