当地周二休斯顿的一次执法行动中,一名移民官员击毙了一名非法移民,一名左翼议员随即加大了对国土安全部(DHS)的抨击力度。

伊利诺伊州民主党众议员迪莉娅·拉米雷斯在社交媒体上宣称,国土安全部是“我们安全面临的最大威胁”,她声称墨西哥籍男子洛伦佐·萨尔加多·阿劳霍在一次交通拦截行动中拒捕,是该机构最新的受害者。

国土安全部表示,萨尔加多·阿劳霍涉嫌驾车试图冲撞联邦探员后,执法人员出于自卫开枪将其击毙。

“对我们安全威胁最大的是国土安全部,”这位来自芝加哥的议员周二写道,她此前曾呼吁废除移民海关执法局(ICE)。“海关与边境保护局(CBP)和移民海关执法局持续暴力攻击我们的邻居,践踏我们居民的权利。”

移民海关执法局:官员遭驾车冲撞后击毙非法移民

民主党近期针对国土安全部的移民执法和边境安保职能采取强硬反对立场——这个庞大的机构下辖特勤局、海岸警卫队和运输安全管理局等多个部门。

今年早些时候,特朗普政府在明尼阿波利斯开展有争议的移民执法突击行动,导致两名美国人被联邦官员杀害,多名民主党高层随即拒绝为国土安全部拨款。

该党采取的强硬策略导致了美国历史上最长时间的联邦政府部分停摆,随后共和党推动通过了第二项“宏伟法案”,为特朗普任期剩余时间内的移民海关执法局和海关与边境保护局提供资金支持。

拉米雷斯并未提及国土安全部的声明,即萨尔加多·阿劳霍在联邦当局试图将其拦下时拒捕,且他本无权留在美国。

“根据我们收到的信息,他冲撞了移民海关执法局的执法车辆,拒绝听从多次口头命令,并将车辆作为武器,试图撞倒一名移民海关执法局的执法人员,导致我方警员出于自卫开枪,”国土安全部在一份声明中写道。

“司机被击中后,我们立即联系了急救服务,”该部门补充道。“司机被送往医院,最终因伤势过重去世。”

拉米雷斯的发言人未立即回应就国土安全部的说法置评的请求。

国土安全部表示,该部门监察长办公室正在对这起枪击事件展开调查。根据国土安全部的声明,联邦调查局休斯顿办公室也针对“移民海关执法局警员可能遭受的袭击”展开了独立调查。

代表萨尔加多·阿劳霍遇刺所在的Magnolia Park社区的得克萨斯州民主党众议员西尔维娅·加西亚发表了更为审慎的声明。

“移民海关执法局已发布初步说法,但必须对事实进行独立且彻底的调查,包括导致使用致命武力的具体情况,”加西亚在社交媒体上写道。“所有可用的录像、通讯和其他证据都应被保存,并作为全面公正调查的一部分进行审查。”

作为极左翼团体“Squad”成员的拉米雷斯还呼吁共和党控制的众议院通过她提出的《废除移民海关执法局法案》,该法案将有效切断该机构的资金,并制定时间表关闭所有移民拘留设施,释放被拘留的非法移民。

该法案由同为“Squad”成员的密歇根州民主党众议员拉希达·特莱布、宾夕法尼亚州民主党众议员萨默·李、马萨诸塞州民主党众议员阿雅娜·普雷斯利和明尼苏达州民主党众议员伊尔汉·奥马尔共同发起。在共和党普遍反对,且可能遭到部分民主党人反对的情况下,该法案暂无明确通过途径。

拉米雷斯倡导废除移民海关执法局之际,她并未就6月在其家乡伊利诺伊州被捕的多名有犯罪背景的非法移民事件发表评论。

联邦特工近期逮捕了委内瑞拉籍男子梅赛德斯·莫雷诺·奥奇平蒂,他涉嫌协助2024年发生在芝加哥一处家庭聚会的阿拉瓜火车帮成员参与的大规模枪击事件。

上个月,当局还在伊利诺伊州圣查尔斯拘留了墨西哥籍非法移民诺埃·莫雷诺-萨拉扎尔。根据国土安全部的信息,他此前曾因性虐待和严重非法使用 loaded武器等多项罪名被定罪。

拉米雷斯似乎也未就3月委内瑞拉籍非法移民在芝加哥杀害18岁的谢里丹·戈尔曼一事发表评论——这起事件因肇事者此前曾被捕而引发公愤。

‘Squad’ member calls DHS ‘greatest threat to our safety’ after ICE-involved shooting

DHS says Lorenzo Salgado Araujo tried to run over a federal agent before being fatally shot

One leftist lawmaker is ramping up her attacks on the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) after an immigration officer fatally shot an illegal alien during an enforcement operation in Houston on Tuesday.

Rep. Delia Ramirez, D-Ill., declared DHS the “greatest threat to our safety” in a social media post, arguing that Mexican national Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, who allegedly resisted arrest during an attempted traffic stop, was the agency’s latest victim.

DHS said Salgado Araujo was shot in self-defense after he allegedly attempted to run over a federal agent with his vehicle, prompting the officer to open fire.

“The greatest threat to our safety is DHS,” Ramirez, a Chicago-based lawmaker who has called for the abolition of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), wrote Tuesday. “CBP and ICE continue to violently attack our neighbors and trample the rights of our residents.”

ICE SAYS OFFICER SHOT AND KILLED ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT WHO TRIED TO RAM HIM WITH CAR IN HOUSTON

Democrats have recently taken a hard line against DHS — a sprawling agency that oversees everything from the Secret Service to the Coast Guard and TSA — over its immigration enforcement and border security functions.

Top Democrats refused to fund the department earlier this year following the Trump administration’s controversial Minneapolis immigration enforcement surge that led to the killing of two Americans by federal officers.

The party’s hardball tactics led to the longest partial government shutdown in history and later prompted Republicans to pass a second “big beautiful bill” that funded ICE and CBP for the rest of President Donald Trump’s term.

Ramirez did not mention DHS’ statement that Salgado Araujo allegedly evaded arrest while federal authorities attempted to pull him over or that he was not authorized to be in the country.

“From information we are receiving, he rammed an ICE law enforcement vehicle, refused to follow multiple verbal commands, and weaponized his vehicle in an attempt to run over an ICE law enforcement officer, resulting in our officer firing his weapon in self-defense,” DHS wrote in a statement.

“The driver was struck, and emergency services were immediately contacted,” the department continued. “The driver was transported to the hospital where he passed away from his injuries.”

A spokesperson for Ramirez did not immediately respond to a request for comment on DHS’s account.

DHS said the department’s Office of Inspector General is probing the shooting. The FBI’s Houston Office launched a separate investigation into the “potential assault” of the ICE officer, according to DHS’ statement.

Rep. Sylvia Garcia, D-Texas, who represents the Magnolia Park neighborhood where Salgado Araujo was shot, issued a more measured statement.

“ICE has released an initial account, but the facts must be independently and thoroughly investigated, including the circumstances that led to the use of deadly force,” Garcia wrote on social media. “All available footage, communications, and other evidence should be preserved and reviewed as part of a full and impartial investigation.”

Ramirez, who is associated with the far-left cohort known as the “Squad,” also called on the Republican-controlled House to pass her Melt ICE Act, which would effectively defund the agency while laying out a timeline to shutter all immigration detention facilities and releasing detained illegal aliens.

The legislation is sponsored by fellow “Squad” members, Reps. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., Summer Lee, D-Pa., Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., and Ilhan Omar, D-Minn. It has no clear path to passage amid widespread opposition from Republicans and likely from some Democrats.

Ramirez’s ICE abolition advocacy comes as she has not commented on a spate of illegal aliens with criminal backgrounds who were arrested in her home state of Illinois in June.

Federal agents recently arrested Venezuelan national Mercedes Moreno Occhipinti, who allegedly assisted in a 2024 mass shooting involving Tren de Aragua members at a house party in Chicago.

Last month, authorities also detained Noe Moreno-Salazar, an illegal alien from Mexico, in St. Charles, Ill. He was previously convicted of sexual abuse and aggravated unlawful use of a loaded weapon, among other offenses, according to DHS.

Ramirez also did not appear to comment on the March killing of 18-year-old Sheridan Gorman by a Venezuelan illegal alien in Chicago — an incident that sparked outrage over the perpetrator’s previous arrest.
