YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

A proposed $70 billion expansion of ICE funding is raising serious concerns on Capitol Hill.

Rep. Rob Menendez warns that without clear limits, this kind of enforcement power could be used to interfere with elections, specifically elections in blue states. Republican supporters say it’s about security but its critics in the Hispanic Caucus say it’s about unchecked power.

So the question is where are the guardrails and can the Democrats actually do anything to stop it?
