Quick Summary

Rep. Delia Ramirez (D-Ill.) has introduced the "Reimagining Safety Act," proposing to abolish the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in response to recent controversial actions such as the ICE shooting of Oscar Belgal and a raid on Rep. Ilhan Omar's home. The bill aims to replace DHS with a new Department of Community Safety, which would fund violence intervention programs instead of conducting immigration detentions and other duties currently handled by DHS. Ramirez argues that DHS has been used to persecute minority groups and dissenters since its establishment in 2001.

Story summary

Rep. Delia Ramirez introduced the "Reimagining Safety Act" after Oscar Belgal was shot by ICE agents while his 5-year-old son watched, calling for an end to all immigration detentions and the abolishment of DHS. The bill aims to dismantle DHS, which was established in response to the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, citing its role in targeting marginalized communities. Ramirez asserts that DHS has been used as a tool to persecute Muslim-Americans, Haitian refugees, Latinos, and dissenting voices over the past 23 years. Democrats have increasingly called for ICE's abolition during the 2026 midterm election cycle due to aggressive immigration enforcement operations initiated by the Trump administration.
