NEW: A federal court dismissed the DOJ’s lawsuit seeking access to Georgia’s unredacted voter registration data, because it filed the suit in the wrong district. The ruling marks the department's third straight loss in its unprecedented legal fight to obtain states’ voter rolls.

This is a cruel disgrace. ICE agents in Minneapolis chase, tackle, and handcuff a child in the freezing cold and snow while he yells “I’m legal! I’m legal!” How does this make us safer? How does this target “the worst of the worst?” Horrifying and shameful.

Today I visited Delaney Hall to provide some measure of oversight and accountability to an out of control DHS. I announced legislation that ends private detention centers and protects immigrants. I will not vote for another dollar for a reckless ICE & DHS.

The level of consolidation in our health system helps explain why Americans feel anxious about their health care – because the coverage they have, the drugs they rely on, and the doctors they can see, are increasingly controlled by the same corporate families.
