House Democrat Announces Support For ICE Deportations In His State: They Have the 'Right and Responsibility' [View all]

"House Democrat Jared Golden (D-ME) threw his support behind Immigration and Customs Enforcement deportations in his state on Friday, claiming the federal agency has 'the right and responsibility' to remove criminals who are in the country illegally."

"Golden’s position is in stark contrast to that of Democratic officials in Minnesota, who have told ICE to 'get the f*ck out,' as citizen protests continue to rage."

“ 'Federal law enforcement agencies have the right and responsibility to enforce federal laws, including immigration laws, and a targeted law enforcement operation focused on individuals who have engaged in criminal activity serves the public interest,' Golden wrote on social media."
