Costa’s Silence Speaks Volumes: Enabling Anti-ICE Hate, Endangering Lives

Not even a week after Gavin Newsom signed an unconstitutional law stripping law enforcement officers of basic protections and just one day after he went on national television to spew inflammatory anti-ICE rhetoric, a shooter opened fire on an ICE field office in Dallas, with a shell casing engraved with the phrase “ANTI-ICE.”

Radical Democrat Jim Costa is standing silently by Newsom’s side, enabling the same dangerous rhetoric that paints law enforcement officers as villains and emboldens violent extremists.

“Out of touch Democrat Jim Costa is complicit in Newsom’s reckless crusade against law enforcement. When Democrats demonize ICE, they don’t just play politics, they put lives at risk. Silence is siding with extremism, and Californians won’t forget it.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
