Nadler calls aide’s brief DHS detention ‘deeply troubling’
- Department of Homeland Security officers entered Representative Jerrold Nadler’s New York district office on Wednesday and briefly handcuffed a staffer without making an arrest.
- The incident followed DHS concerns about protesters and observers inside Nadler's office, who were watching immigration agents detain immigrants one floor below.
- Nadler condemned the tactics as totally unacceptable, highlighted the separation of powers, and accused DHS of lying about the events leading to the staffer’s detention.
- A video published by Gothamist shows a uniformed DHS officer confronting a woman while another staffer was handcuffed and heard requesting to call her boyfriend, but was released after Nadler arrived.
- Nadler is drafting a letter to Jim Jordan, who leads the House Judiciary Committee, urging him to hold a hearing to investigate DHS’s conduct and cautioning that these methods pose a risk to all congressional offices.
