Rep. #NydiaVelázquez just introduced BOMBSHELL legislation to UNMASK ICE and stop agents from hiding behind masks:

“You can’t hold someone accountable if you don’t know who they are. This is not Russia…Take the masks off.” Justice lives in the light!

11,200+ people funded this campaign — no corporate cash, no AIPAC, no real estate, no AI or crypto. I'm humbled and energized by all of you.

Together we'll prevail on June 23rd and build the movement to take on the oligarchs and deliver the dignity working people deserve.

Honored to earn the endorsement of @aoc.bsky.social & @NydiaVelazquez — two trailblazing Latinas fighting for a more just and equitable Queens. I’m running for State Senate to deliver transformative change.

As @AOC said: Queens deserves someone who will always show up & fight. I’m ready.💪🏽

Earlier this evening, @RepJerryNadler @nydiavelazquez @repgracemeng and I sent a letter to the Adams Administration detailing our concerns about the recent reporting on guidance sent to NYC staff & agencies, which are not only confusing but conflict with New Yorkers’ core values.

Masked ICE agents. No names. No badges. No accountability.

That’s not law enforcement — it’s intimidation.

Proud to help lead the No Masks for ICE Act with Rep @NydiaVelazquez to bring transparency back to immigration enforcement.

House Democrats move to ban ICE agents from wearing masks
The new bill comes after concerns around agents covering their faces during immigration enforcement actions.
