ICE Buffalo misleads public as arrests of non-criminals skyrockets Many of the migrants ICE Buffalo has reported arresting were already in prison. Meanwhile, arrests of non-criminals has skyrocketed.

Re: ICE Buffalo: "Fifty-six percent of those detainees, the data shows, have no criminal history or pending charges."

Thank you for highlighting the stories of those who will suffer because of this bill. And thank you for fighting, even when we might not have much hope for a better outcome. The fight is important, so thank you.

Office Locations | Congressman Nick Langworthy

The #MAGAMurderBill is an abomination. NY-23 folks: Rep Langworthy will certainly fall in line, but let's light up his phones anyhow. This bill will be devastating for rural communities and rural hospitals, something he claimed he would stand up for. What a joke. langworthy.house.gov/contact/offi...

To put a finer point on it. Trump’s contention isn’t just that he can deport people without them appearing before a judge, but that he can render them into a life sentence in a foreign dungeon with no process whatsoever.

This is the budget resolution that Republicans have voted for.

Another reminder that we have socialism for the rich, harsh capitalism for the rest.
