ICE Arrest Sparks Outrage: Congresswoman Maxine Waters Denied Access to Detained Union President
Congresswoman Maxine Waters was prevented from seeing SEIU President David Huerta, who was arrested by ICE. The incident took place at an ICE facility in Los Angeles. Waters stated to reporters, "I just want to see David Huerta. He is the head of SEIU local union here. I don't know why he was targeted. I don't know what they're doing with him. I want to report back to my caucus about what's happening." The video shows Waters attempting to enter the facility, being stopped by security, and expressing frustration at the lack of information. The incident has sparked outrage among labor unions and raised concerns about due process. A peaceful protest is planned in response to Huerta's arrest. The situation underscores the ongoing conflict between ICE and labor organizations and highlights the limitations of congressional oversight.
