07/18/2019 Tweet - "Militarizing our border won't make us safe. Walls won't make us safe. Caging kids won't make us safe. Cities like El Paso are the safest in America--not in spite of the fact that we're cities of immigrants, but because of the fact that we're cities of immigrants."
07/15/2019 Tweet - "They separated families. Locked children in cages. Raided homes. Then, they decided no deterrence policy was cruel enough--so now, they're banning asylum seekers from finding safety in our country. Their cruelty won't stop until we stand up and stop them."
07/13/2019 Tweet - "Human beings locked in crowded cages not even allowed to shower. This is how we treat asylum seekers and refugees when @VP and reporters are visiting. When the cameras are off, it's even worse. This will define us as a country--until we stand up and change it."
07/08/2019 Tweet - "This is wrong. As president I'll prohibit DHS from using facial recognition to go after immigration offenses. Instead of abusing the privacy of those in our communities, we'll provide pathways for immigrants to further contribute to society & the economy."
