“So the anti — so, I know for me, for my residents, for years, since 2003, when the creation happened, because we’re a border community in Detroit, I think it’s important to know, when you’re a border community, everybody always thinks the southern border, but in the northern border, over and over again under Obama, under Bush, but even under Obama and under the current president, I had a few incidents under Biden where ICE agents did not follow the law,” the congresswoman said.
