California Representative and gubernatorial candidate Eric Swalwell said he would pursue criminal charges against federal immigration agents if elected governor, arguing that ICE officers operating in the state should be charged with offenses including kidnapping and assault.
Swalwell launched his bid for governor last month, seeking to replace incumbent Governor Gavin Newsom. During an appearance on MSNOW (formerly MSNBC), Swalwell was asked what he would bring to the role and pointed to opposition to immigration enforcement efforts under the Trump administration aimed at detaining individuals in the country illegally.
