  3. U.S. Lawmakers Demand Reforms to #Immigration Officers’ Use of #TearGas and #PepperSpray

    3 US senators have called for an overhaul of federal agents’ use of tear gas & pepper spray, citing a ProPublica investigation that found at least 79 children were left screaming, coughing or hurt by these chemicals during Trump’s immigration crackdown.

    "El-Zabri, the Palestinian activist surveilled at Standing Rock, was among 79 people arrested this week while protesting at the #UniversityOfTexas at #Austin. 'It really felt like the same as Standing Rock, when we were facing the police,' he said.

    "''There was a whole army that looked like it was at war in #RiotGear. They eventually used #TearGas and #PepperSpray.'

    "'They're afraid of what we have to say and the people that we can touch,' said Cornell senior Yanenowi Logan, who is Deer Clan from the #SenecaNation and has been negotiating with campus administrators.

    "Logan said that by standing up for Gazans, she and other Native organizers are also standing up for themselves. 'We want to be able to show them that, hey, we're still here,' she said. 'You can try to kill us. You can burn our crops. You can do whatever you want to do, but we're still going to persist.'"
