Members of Congress had their first opportunity this week to question leaders of ICE as well as Customs and Border Protection since the deadly shootings of two U.S. citizens by federal officers during protests in Minneapolis.
Congresswoman Julie Johnson of North Texas was among several lawmakers who grilled the leaders of ICE and CBP who went before the House Homeland Security Committee this week.
Johnson says they pressed them on due process and the use of force.
"Their refusal to apply and adhere to warrants before entering people's homes," Johnson said. "And the recklessness by which how they executed Renee Good and Alex Pretti."
Johnson also questioned the numbers regarding how many of those detained had a history of violent crime.
"Only two percent," Congresswoman Johnson said.
"That is, to me in my opinion, not a sufficiently high enough number to justify the horrific violations of civil rights that we are having in this country."
Meanwhile, the Department of Homeland Security faces the possibility of funding running out at the end of the week.
ICE as well as Customs and Border Protection likely won't be affected as they both received a large amount of funding in the so-called 'One Big Beautiful Bill' several months ago.
