I’m disgusted by the lack of accountability within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the needless loss of life we have seen in this country due to unchecked ICE operations. That is why I continue to call for the impeachment of DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and cannot support funneling taxpayer dollars to DHS without meaningful safeguards and transparency measures in place. Lawless, masked ICE agents must be held accountable. 

 

Reps. Meeks and Meng Hold "Protect Our Communities from ICE Brutality" Press Conference with Local Faith Leaders 

I held a press conference alongside Rep. Grace Meng and local faith leaders calling on U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to immediately cease its operations in Minnesota and stop terrorizing communities nationwide. There must be a comprehensive, independent investigation into the recent killings and illegal arrests carried out by ICE agents, without interference from the Trump administration.

 

Rep. Meeks Advances Over $8.2 Million in Funding for Local Transportation, Infrastructure and Community Safety Projects

Rep. Meeks Questions Waste and Destruction of Taxpayer-Funded Health 

Congressional leaders have asked Secretary of State Marco Rubio for answers about the repeated waste and destruction of taxpayer-funded contraception and other essential health supplies. These publicly funded resources could be put to immediate use serving communities in Queens, instead they are reportedly sitting unused in warehouses in Belgium awaiting destruction.
