As Democrats in Congress call for Immigration and Customs Enforcement reforms in light of ICU nurse Alex Pretti’s shooting death in Minneapolis, Sen. Shelley Moore Capito told reporters Thursday she can agree with some of their demands.

Capito, R-W.Va., said Thursday she can support a rule requiring ICE agents to wear body cameras and have de-escalation training. She hesitated to support prohibiting ICE agents from wearing face masks. Capito said she has safety concerns about a no-mask rule.

“I think we have to look at that more objectively,” Capito said. “Our agents, I think, are subject to being doxed at the same time… I don’t know where that one would go, so I do have questions about that, for safety reasons.”

The U.S. government moved closer Thursday to a partial shut down as Democrats and a handful of Republicans declined to advance a funding bill that included funding for the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Capito and Sen. Jim Justice, R-W.Va., both voted to advance the legislation.

ICE agents shot and killed Pretti in Minneapolis on Saturday. His was the second shooting death in that city by ICE agents. Agents shot and killed Renee Good on Jan. 7.

Senate Democrats have called for “common sense” changes they want to implement for federal immigration enforcement. The reforms include ending roving patrols, tightening rules about the use of warrants, requiring ICE to coordinate with state and local law enforcement, barring wearing masks, requiring use of body cameras and mandating that agents carry proper identification.

Democrats say the reforms must be added to a funding package that needs to become law before the weekend to avoid a partial government shutdown.

“We need to make sure that they’re figuring out a way to have enforcement of our immigration laws, but still have orderly execution of that,” Capito said. She added that the Trump administration announced plans to move ICE agents out of Maine, and she expects to have fewer agents in Minneapolis.

She said ICE’s focus should be on removing “violent criminals” who are in the country illegally.

“I think almost to a person, everybody in this country would agree with that tactic,” Capito said. “But it’s gone beyond that, and I think that’s where the problem has been. And I think you’ll see the administration rethinking those decisions.”

When asked about Pretti’s death, Capito said the videos are sad and difficult. She reiterated comments she made after Good’s death, that an ICE agent’s job is difficult.

“I think that we’ve got to tone the rhetoric down,” Capito said. “Not just the rhetoric — we’ve got to tone the whole thing down. I think that’s why you saw President Trump send (border czar) Tom Holman there to turn the dials back to work with local officials and the state officials, which we should have been doing all along. I don’t think they were interested in working with the Department of Homeland Security.”

She added that local officials in places where ICE is working should concede not to harbor “violent criminals” in their jails and prisons.

“I think that’s a safety issue, and I think that’s abiding by the federal law,” she said. “So I think maybe concessions on both sides would help move this forward.”

A partial shutdown of the government would affect the Departments of Defense, Education, Health and Human Services, Homeland Security, Housing and Urban Development, Labor, State, Transportation and Treasury, according to reporting by States Newsroom. The Executive Office of the President, Supreme Court and judicial branch would also go without funding.

Capito said she is frustrated over the potential of another shutdown just months after a shutdown that stretched on for more than a month last fall.

“Basically, Homeland Security, while it does have Border Patrol and the ICE agency in it, it also has extremely critical agencies” like the Federal Emergency Management Agency, Capito said.

After Winter Storm Fern brought snow and ice that disrupted power for thousands of West Virginians over the weekend, forecasters say another snowstorm is possible this weekend on the East Coast.

“We need to have our FEMA disaster funds and FEMA disaster folks at the ready, and they would be in danger in a shutdown,” Capito said.
