Mandela Barnes Says ICE Is ‘Making Communities Less Safe’ and Will Be Arrested if They Defy Wisconsin Laws If He Becomes Governor

EXCERPT:

BARNES: "We can all agree that if a person is in this country and they’ve committed a crime, they’re not here legally, of course, that person should be deported. But that is not — we’re talking about dangerous, violent crime. And that is not what we’re experiencing right now. We’re experiencing Donald Trump in the run-up to a midterm election, where he is almost assured defeat, try to use his heavy hand once again to be some sort of strongman leader. And it is ultimately making our communities less safe. It is creating unknown amounts of chaos, and we have agents that are running afoul of the law. There’s a mask ordinance in Milwaukee that says that ICE agents cannot wear masks. They are defying the law. And I can tell you, if I become governor of the state of Wisconsin, ICE agents will be fined, they will be prosecuted and arrested if they run afoul of the law, whether it’s state or local."
