Illinois Democrat Rep. Delia Ramirez introduced the "Reimagining Safety Act," which would eliminate ICE and CBP and replace the Department of Homeland Security with a new department.
Rep. Delia Ramirez, an Illinois Democrat, introduced a bill Tuesday that would shut down Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection and dismantle the Department of Homeland Security, according to The Hill.
The bill is called the "Reimagining Safety Act." The Hill reports it would replace DHS with a new "community-centered" department. Its report was cut off before naming the new agency.
Fox News reports the bill would also bar federal funding for a border wall and close Guantanamo Bay. The Hill's available text does not mention those provisions.
Fox News described Ramirez as a member of the "Squad." Neither report says whether the bill has any Republican or Democratic co-sponsors, or whether it will get a vote.
