Democrat Rep Tom Suozzi apologizes for DHS vote after ICE-involved shooting
WASHINGTON, D.C. (Fox News) — Rep. Tom Suozzi, a House Democrat, apologizes for voting in favor of a Department of Homeland Security spending bill following a deadly clash involving ICE agents in Minnesota.
## Apology and Accountability
Suozzi admits his mistake in supporting the bill and acknowledges criticism from constituents over ICE’s actions in Minneapolis.
## Growing Opposition
Senate Democrats are showing reluctance to pass the DHS bill amid concerns over funding ICE, especially after the recent death of Alex Pretti in a confrontation with ICE officers.
## Calls for Reform
Progressive lawmakers like Rep. Ilhan Omar demand accountability for ICE and refuse to support any spending bill that doesn’t include reforms to prevent deadly clashes.
## Diminishing Support
Support for the DHS funding bill among Democrats is dwindling further, with Suozzi calling on Trump to end ICE’s deportation campaign following Pretti’s death.
## Senate Vote
The Senate is expected to vote on the bill package soon, with questions on potential modifications to prevent a government shutdown if Democrats maintain their opposition.
