• Democrats issue 10 demands for ICE reforms, threaten to block DHS funding — Following fatal shootings of U.S. citizens Renee Good and Alex Pretti by federal agents in Minneapolis, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries issued a formal letter to GOP leadership on February 5, 2026, laying out 10 conditions Democrats will require before supporting long-term Department of Homeland Security funding. The demands include judicial warrant requirements for property entry, prohibition on agent masks, mandatory ID display, protection of sensitive locations, racial profiling bans, use-of-force standards, state/local coordination, detention safeguards, body-camera mandates, and restrictions on paramilitary equipment. Democrats signaled intent to introduce legislation codifying these proposals.
• Democrats demand conditions on DHS funding including warrant requirements and agent accountability — Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) sent Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) and House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) a letter outlining conditions Democrats demand be incorporated into DHS appropriations legislation. Demands include requiring judicial warrants for home entry, visible agent identification, prohibition of racial profiling, restrictions on raids of sensitive sites (schools, churches, polling places, courts), use-of-force policies, body cameras, and state jurisdiction over federal agents who break the law. Republicans called the demands "unrealistic" and "radical."
• Democratic leaders released 10-point DHS funding negotiation list with immigration enforcement safeguards — House and Senate Democratic leaders submitted a formal list of 10 policy demands to Republican leadership for DHS funding negotiations, including judicial warrant requirements, prohibition of enforcement in schools and churches, ban on race-based stops, mandatory body cameras, officer identification requirements, use-of-force standards, detention standards, state investigation authority, and prohibition of officer masks. Republican leaders dismissed the demands as unrealistic and a non-starter, with Senate Majority Leader John Thune and GOP Whip Tom Barrasso claiming the list had expanded and represented radical demands designed to appease left-wing groups.
• Senate Minority Leader Schumer detailed ICE enforcement abuses — Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer described widespread ICE enforcement abuses across U.S. cities, including warrantless arrests, detention in "dark chambers" without phone access, and two American deaths. Schumer stated that 90% of Americans surveyed had viewed videos of the enforcement operations and rejected them as un-American. He outlined Democratic objectives: stopping roving patrols, prohibiting enforcement in sensitive locations, establishing accountability mechanisms, and requiring officer identification and body cameras.

• Fulton County files motion to challenge FBI document seizure — Fulton County attorneys filed a motion in federal court requesting an order mandating the return of property seized during the FBI raid. County Commissioner Marvin Arrington Jr. argued that the FBI violated a prior judicial order by Judge Thomas W. Thrash that had denied them access to original election documents, and that the statutes cited in the criminal warrant are misdemeanors with expired statutes of limitations, making prosecution impossible.
• Fulton County files motion to unseal FBI warrant affidavit and return election documents — Fulton County Commission Chair Robb Pitts announced at a press conference that the county filed a motion requesting the return of seized 2020 election documents and the unsealing of the FBI's warrant affidavit.
