Outrage Erupts as Tennessee Congressman Denies Due Process to Non-Citizens in ICE Raids
Tennessee Congressman Andy Ogles sparked outrage Monday when he claimed non-citizens arrested in ICE raids are not entitled to due process. The statement came during a press conference where Ogles announced investigations into Nashville Mayor Freddie O’Connell, a Democrat, for allegedly assisting illegal immigration. "No," Ogles said when asked if those arrested have due process rights, adding that "a non-citizen can be removed in an expeditious manner." Outside the Tennessee State Capitol, protesters reacted angrily. One protester stated, "Protect due process." Mayor O’Connell has criticized federal immigration raids in Nashville. The incident highlights the ongoing debate surrounding immigration policy and due process rights.
