These corporations are enabling violence on the streets and death behind barbed wire.
It’s time to boycott them. Watch.
Marylanders from across the state have seen the results of an unaccountable agency with seemingly unlimited resources: Five-year-old children detained. Mothers dragged out of cars. Communities living in fear.
We will continue to work in partnership with local law enforcement to keep Marylanders safe. This is just the latest step.
Mississippi Democratic Congressman Bennie Thompson, the ranking member of the House Homeland Security Committee, is boycotting this Tuesday's State of the Union address. He says he only attended one of Trump's State of the Union addresses during the Trump years. He attended that speech only to prevent Republicans from shaking the president’s hand.

This #BHM we celebrate civil rights and women’s suffrage leader Ida B. Wells. As a fearless investigative journalist, her nationwide anti-lynching campaign saved countless lives from white supremacist violence.
Wells was an essential figure in the early civil rights movement, whose life of dedicated activism included co-founding the NAACP, owning and editing newspapers that advocated for equal rights, and founding Chicago’s first kindergarten for Black children.
We honor her memory as we continue to fight against violence, racism, and patriarchy.

On this day in 1965, Malcolm X was assassinated. But his voice, his vision, and his legacy continue to echo through generations.
