These records, detailing her handling of ICE requests and the termination of the County\u2019s 287(g) agreement, have significant public safety implications. Rep. Nancy Mace, Chairwoman of the Subcommittee on Cybersecurity, Information Technology, and Government Innovation, demands transparency, calling the Sheriff\u2019s deflection of a congressional inquiry as a FOIA request a clear attempt to avoid accountability. If the Sheriff\u2019s office fails to comply, Rep. Mace, alongside the Subcommittee on National Security, the Border, and Foreign Affairs, will issue a subpoena.\n\n\"Documentary evidence of these facts was submitted for the record by Representative Mace at a September 25 hearing entitled, \u2018The Border Crisis: The Cost of Chaos,\u2019 held by the Subcommittee on National Security, the Border and Foreign Affairs. To better understand why your jurisdiction is refusing to facilitate custody by ICE of illegal aliens who have committed crimes\u2014including violent crimes\u2014we request that you provide the following information, covering the time period January 4, 2021 to the present unless otherwise indicated, by November 15, 2024,\" the letter continues. \"If you fail to produce the requested documents by November 15, 2024, the Committee will consider additional measures, including use of the compulsory process, to gain compliance and obtain this critical material.\u201d\n\n\u201cOur message is simple: hand over the documents or prepare for a subpoena,\u201d Mace continued. \u201cStonewalling Congress won\u2019t fly, and I won\u2019t stand by while public safety is put at risk. Graziano needs to answer for her actions, and we\u2019re going to do whatever it takes to make it happen.\u201d\n\nRead the full letter\n\n###\n\nFor press inquiries, please reach out to SC01press@mail.house.gov", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-07T22:07:06Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://mace.house.gov/media/press-releases/rep-nancy-mace-puts-charleston-county-sheriff-notice-comply-records-request-or"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 2.001076005399227, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
