Our colleague, Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, is being targeted by Trump’s allies.
Hi friends,
I need to be very clear about what’s happening.
Our colleague, Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, is being targeted by Trump’s allies. In May, LaMonica showed up at an ICE detention facility in Newark to do her job: conduct oversight, demand accountability, and stand up for the dignity of those being detained.
For that, Trump’s handpicked prosecutor is trying to silence her with politically motivated charges that could carry up to 17 years in prison.
This is about intimidation. It’s also about punishing those of us who fight for our communities — especially Black women — and making an example of us. But we won’t back down, and we know that history is watching.
Yvette Clarke is the ONLY Black woman representing New York in Washington. As Chair of the Congressional Black Caucus, she’s brought together moderates and progressives to pass legislation that helps communities of color, low-income families, immigrants, and more. If you'd like only the most important updates, you can opt for fewer emails here, but if you don't want to keep Yvette proudly representing Brooklyn, you can unsubscribe.
