Dear Secretary Noem, Mr. Lyons, Ms. Fenton, and Mr. Homan: As members of the Democratic Women’s Caucus, we write with grave concern regarding the violent attacks on women by masked U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers and those who are using this moment to impersonate immigration enforcement officers.1 All our lives, we are taught to fear masked men in unmarked vehicles. We learn we should run from such men to avoid being kidnapped, sexually assaulted, or killed. Yet, ICE is increasingly conducting raids and arrests in masks, plain-clothes, without visible identification or badges, using unmarked vehicles – tactics that cause confusion, terror, and mistrust among the public. These tactics invited perpetrators of violence against women to take advantage of the chaos by impersonating masked ICE agents in order to target and sexually assault women.2 This cannot continue and must be addressed immediately. The Democratic Women’s Caucus is committed to defending the rights of all women and girls to live in safety. We call on the Department to recognize this pervasive issue and to take immediate action. We demand that ICE agents visibly and clearly identify themselves when conducting immigration enforcement activities to stop enabling impersonators who leverage women’s uncertainty and fear of immigration consequences to rape, harass, and abuse them.
