WASHINGTON, D.C. — Democratic lawmakers once again called on the Department of Justice to reign in ICE officers, fearful that mass deportations will make illegals afraid to vote.
"I am afraid that if we don't end these ICE raids soon, illegal aliens will be too afraid to illegally vote in our elections," Senator Chuck Schumer said. "That's why I'm calling on our president to step in and do the right thing by no longer executing the law."
According to sources, undocumented migrants are much less likely to vote as a result of ongoing ICE arrests and may not even bother voting at all if they get deported.
"We have to put a stop to ICE or we're through!" warned Representative Ilhan Omar. "Everyone knows real Americans won't vote for us."
As Democratic lawmakers continue to wrestle with the president over mass deportations, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has already hit the streets to get out the vote among the illegal community well ahead of the midterms.
"Voting in free American elections is not just an American right, but a human right!" the congresswoman said. "It's, like, literally in the Constitution."
At publishing time Democrats took to the streets to protest the deportation of another several thousand of their voters.
