I saw Wilber in ICE detention yesterday, in a wheelchair with a bullet still in his body.

Here’s what’s next: He needs surgery. And ICE needs to cooperate with the independent investigation. by @repcasar

DHS keeps tweeting at me instead of answering a simple question:

I'm heading to the Pearsall ICE detention facility to check on Wilber Garces Perez, a man who was shot in the back by an ICE agent in Austin on Sunday.

He needs a doctor, not deportation. I'll report back on what I find. taken in Texas by @repcasar

You may have heard about my AI bill with
@SenSanders.

We're introducing the legislation today, and I wanted to highlight one of the most important aspects: A ban on “recursive self-improvement.”

What does that mean? Swipe to see. by @repcasar

Wilber Garces Perez was shot in the back by an ICE agent in Austin. Now he's in detention with the bullet still in his body.

Today, 100+ Members of Congress are demanding that ICE get him medical care, stop trying to deport a key witness, and immediately release the video footage. taken in Austin, Texas by @repcasar

ICE shot a DoorDash driver in the back of the neck, denied him basic medical care, and now they want to deport him before he can testify about what happened.

The government shouldn’t be allowed to shoot you from an unmarked vehicle and then cover it up.

Wilber Garcés Perez must be released immediately to a doctor, and ICE needs to get the hell out of Austin. taken in Austin, Texas by @repcasar

ICE wants to deport Wilber Rafael Garces Perez, a DoorDash driver who they just shot in Austin yesterday. The federal government can't shoot someone and then try to make them disappear to escape scrutiny.

I’m demanding answers from DHS and ICE about today's shooting in Austin.

They must preserve every piece of evidence, release the body cam footage, suspend the agent, and brief Congress.

ICE has lied before. We deserve the truth.

ICE shot a man in Austin today.

I’m demanding transparency, accountability, and safety.

Release the footage and records. Hold any officer who broke the law responsible. And get ICE out of our city. taken in Austin, Texas by @repcasar

The horror has come to our city: ICE has shot a person in Austin this morning.
As the facts emerge, I am demanding a full, independent investigation, immediate release of the body camera footage, and accountability for any ICE officer who broke the law.
Over and over, ICE has shot people and then lied about what happened. We can see the lies with our own eyes. We will demand truth, transparency and accountability.
Just like Americans have from Minneapolis to Houston, Austinites will speak out peacefully against this deadly mass deportation machine.
ICE has been terrorizing our country for far too long. We will not be silent. taken in Austin, Texas by @repcasar
