Congress would need to pass and the president would need to sign the bill before it takes effect. None of its proposed changes to immigration enforcement are currently in force. DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin criticized the proposal.Radical leftists are calling to defund the police and abolish DHS. Its NEVER going to happen. Our 270,000 DHS patriots are keeping Americans SAFE- unlike this open-borders politician who refuses to prioritize Americans over illegal aliens, Mullin said. A DHS spokesperson also criticized Ramirez, saying she should be thanking our law enforcement for removing these dangerous criminals from her district-NOT vilifying law enforcement.DHS Mullin criticizes progressive abolition planRamirez previously defended her proposal in a statement to Fox News Digital. She argued the current department should be dismantled and replaced with an agency focused on community safety. Every day, Americans wake up with a new reason to dismantle DHS, reimagine safety, and build something that honors our shared humanity, Ramirez said. The bill represents a radical proposal that would fundamentally overhaul federal immigration enforcement.The legislation follows calls from Democrats to dismantle DHS amid the Trump administrations crackdown on illegal immigration. DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin discussed those calls on Sunday Night in America. He said DHS does not pick and choose which laws to enforce. The debate over the future of DHS and immigration enforcement remains ongoing in Congress.Elizabeth Elkind contributed to this reporting.
