Following ICE actions in Minnesota, Sen. Ruben Gallego says Immigration and Customs Enforcement in its current form should not get any more funding.
Speaking with Jake Tapper on CNN’s "State of the Union" on Sunday, Gallego said Arizonans want ICE agents to focus on criminals and security.
"I know the implications of that, I know the political implications potentially of that. But we cannot keep funding this type of goon squads that are just spreading throughout the whole country just to enforce some weird policy position that Stephen Miller has where he thinks we have to punish blue cities," Gallego said.
Gallego also voiced support for a push by fellow Senate Democrats to put constraints and oversight over the Department of Homeland Security in the government funding bill up for vote this month.
