Dan Goldman's five-bill blitz: How and why the New York congressman is fighting to reign in ICE | amNewYork
"People have always sought refuge here from terrible conditions elsewhere, and that's why people want to come here to pursue the American dream, and the idea that this administration is trying to shut down immigration of all kinds... is so offensive to me."
"For nearly a year, ICE has intentionally violated its own policy and the law by arresting immigrants at immigration courthouses, and then engaging in a massive cover-up."
"Now that we know the truth that thousands of ICE arrests around the country should never have taken place, those responsible for allowing these arrests must be held accountable."
U.S. Rep. Dan Goldman has become a prominent advocate for immigration rights, proposing five new bills in response to ICE's actions in immigration courts. He emphasizes the importance of the U.S. as a refuge for those fleeing persecution, drawing on his family's history of immigration. Goldman criticizes the current administration's stance on immigration, arguing that it unjustly targets individuals regardless of their circumstances. A recent court filing suggests that ICE may have acted unlawfully in making arrests at courthouses, prompting Goldman to demand accountability from the Department of Homeland Security.
