NO FUNDING FOR ICE

Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 24 (Tuesday, February 3, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 24 (Tuesday, February 3, 2026)] [House] [Pages H1968-H1969] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] NO FUNDING FOR ICE (Mr. SWALWELL asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.) Mr. SWALWELL. Mr. Speaker, Donald Trump promised that he would cut prices. Instead, his administration is killing people. No Democrat should vote to give ICE another penny for public executions. ICE started by chasing people through the fields and factories where they work, then deporting U.S. kids with stage IV cancer, pulling women by their hair down the street, and now just murdering citizens in daylight. We have an unqualified, masked militia eager to escalate. One lady who I met recently in San Jose asked me: We have only been through 1 year of this. How will we survive 4 years? We won't. Not until we do the right thing. No other policy matters if we can't protect our people. Today, let's send a message. That is why I voted to shut down their funding so that we never again see the murder of a nurse named Pretti or a mom named Good. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Members are reminded to observe proper decorum in the House. [[Page H1969]] ____________________
