Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar Thrown Out of Minneapolis ICE Facility
BREITBART
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) was booted from a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility on Saturday where she claimed she and other lawmakers went to exercise “oversight.”
The incident happened at a facility in Minneapolis, Fox News reported Sunday. Video shows lawmakers gathered in the snow outside the building.
Democrat-run Minneapolis is where an ICE agent recently fatally shot a woman, Renee Good, who was accused of using her vehicle as a weapon during an immigration operation, per Breitbart News.
After the shooting, leftist groups mobilized to protest ICE in cities across the nation.
Omar told reporters, “We were initially invited in to do our congressional oversight and to exercise our Article I duties. When we made it in, it was with the authorization of someone who’s been here for a really long time, who understood that we had a congressional duty to enter the building and see the facility.”
“Shortly after we were let in, two officials came in and said they received a message that we were no longer allowed to be in the building and that they were rescinding our invitation to come in and declining any further access to the building,” the Democrat added.
