Senator Pepper-Sprayed at ICE Protest
U.S. Senator Andy Kim was reportedly pepper-sprayed by federal agents during a chaotic demonstration outside the Delaney Hall detention center in Newark, New Jersey.
Protesters had gathered to support migrants inside the facility who are currently on a hunger and labor strike over 'inhumane' conditions.
The incident has led to a sharp escalation in the national debate over immigration enforcement.
Several other New Jersey politicians were present at the rally, which saw multiple clashes between activists and ICE personnel.
