Firefighters Detained? Trump's Sick Policy? | JQJO

Senator Patty Murray criticized the Trump administration for detaining two firefighters battling a large wildfire in Washington state. Federal immigration agents arrested the firefighters, part of a contract crew, during a raid at the Bear Gulch fire. Murray demanded answers about their whereabouts and the administration's immigration policy, calling it "fundamentally sick." She also criticized budget cuts to the US Forest Service, leaving the country underprepared for wildfires. The incident caused distress among fellow firefighters, who were prevented from saying goodbye to their detained colleagues. While authorities claim firefighting efforts weren't hindered, Murray raised concerns about the broader implications of this policy.
