Ayanna Pressley Says She Was Already Calling for Abolishing ICE in 2018

‘I ran on an agenda that people tried to marginalize and radicalize’

EXCERPT:

PRESSLEY: "In 2018, when I was elected, I ran on an agenda that people tried to marginalize and radicalize. In 2018, I was calling for the abolishing of ICE. I was calling to cancel student debt. I was calling for Medicare-for -all. I was calling for radical criminal legal reform and ending qualified immunity. And, you know, those attempts to marginalize me were an attempt to marginalize a movement, an attempt to silence the voices of the most disenfranchised. But that movement has only multiplied. It has only multiplied.”
