Hold Maxine Waters Accountable!

You may recall that in June 2018, we filed a House ethics complaint against Rep. Maxine Waters for inciting violence and assaults on former-President Trump's cabinet.

Ms. Waters took an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States, which includes the rights accorded to Officer Chauvin to a fair and impartial trial by a jury of his peers and to due process.

House Rule 23, Clause 1, of the Code of Official Conduct of the Rules of the House of Representatives states: "A Member, Delegate, Resident Commissioner, officer, or employee of the House shall conduct himself at all times in a manner that shall reflect creditably on the House."

Maxine Waters is a repeat offender, and it is urgent that the House Ethics Committee quickly acts to hold her accountable.

"As a result, many convicted criminal aliens have been released to society after their sentences, contrary to Congress's mandate that they be detained pending their removal from the United States," according to their complaint, filed this month in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas Victoria Division.

The lawsuit begins by stating that "The Biden Administration is refusing to take custody of criminal aliens despite federal statutes requiring it to do so." Instead, the document reads, defendants "Have issued and implemented unlawful agency memoranda that allow criminal aliens already convicted of felony offenses to roam free in the United States. Such aliens belong in federal custody, as Congress required."

In Louisiana ICE is not removing individuals subject to mandatory deportation, the complaint says, causing convicted felons incarcerated in state facilities to be released in local communities throughout the Bayou State.
