Foushee’s Statement on Border Patrol and ICE in North Carolina | 2025-11-18 | 2025 | 2025-11 | Democrat | House | NC | Valerie P. Foushee | F000477 | foushee.house.gov | foushee | https://foushee.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON, DC (November 18, 2025) — Today, Congresswoman Valerie Foushee (NC-04) released the following statement condemning the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s deployment of agents in North Carolina. “I am outraged by the continued and expanding deployment of U.S. Border Patrol and ICE agents in North Carolina. Our cities are not border cities, and our state is not a war zone. What is happening in our state, and many others across the country, is completely unconscionable. Yet, the Trump Administration has chosen to initiate policies designed to instill fear, undermine due process, and disproportionately target Black, Brown, and immigrant residents. These aggressive operations conducted with unmarked vehicles, masked agents, paramilitary tactics, and warrantless detentions constitute a deliberate form of racial profiling and intimidation that has no place in our communities. “This is a profound abuse of power, a violation of civil rights, and a stain on our democracy. I call upon federal authorities to cease these operations immediately and demand full investigations into every allegation of racial profiling and abuse. I stand firmly with our immigrant communities and will do everything in my power to hold the Trump Administration accountable for their oppressive and cruel actions.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T19:52:45Z |
