    My office has directly engaged with @MohanadElshieky, @ACLU_WA, and the @ACLU national chapter about this specific incident and the broader issue of Customs and Border Protection conducting these searches.https://twitter.com/MohanadElshieky/status/1089631310606266368 …

    This morning, ICE agents got on my Greyhound bus that was headed from Spokane to Portland. They walked around before they asked me and few others to step outside and took my documents and interrogated me for around 20 mins then claimed my papers were fake and that I’m “illegal”.

        Searches like this violate civil liberties & must stop. I will work with other Congressional offices & partners like the ACLU to conduct oversight, demand answers from CBP & explore potential legislative solutions to ensure these kinds of searches do not occur in our communities.

        I think we have a LOT of rogue ICE & CPB agents that are going to HAVE to be weeded out out once the traitor leaves OUR house! That they would put obviously legal people through this kind of crap is scary!

        This is why a wall is the best border security option. Democrats call for systems that require human intervention and then criticize the responders.

        At the very least whoever “supervises” the ICE thugs should be dismissed and those agents should be required to make public apologies. They are paid by US taxpayers not be the ass in the White House
