WASHINGTON, D.C. – Rep. Earl L. “Buddy” Carter (R-GA) today introduced a House Resolution condemning the violent riots in Los Angeles, California targeting our brave Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.

The Resolution expresses the House of Representatives’ vehement opposition to the lawless clashes between illegal immigrants and federal law enforcement that left the city of Los Angeles in shambles and required deployment of the National Guard and Marine Corps.

“It is our duty in the House of Representatives to send a clear message to those who harm our local and federal law enforcement: You have no place here. As disturbing images emerge from the violent riots in LA, including foreign nationals harming officers while waving other countries’ flags, we in Congress must make our stance perfectly clear. We back the blue, we support our ICE officers, and we will defend our cities from rioting, lawlessness, and destruction,” said Rep. Carter.
