Día de los Muertos in Congress? Nice nod. Now, how about a pragmatic plan to address those detention deaths?

Dia de los Muertos isn’t just decorations, it’s a call for dignity—we can’t celebrate while people perish in custody.

Nice sentiment, but Congress should focus on law and order, not cultural celebrations tied to immigration grievances.

Celebrating heritage is great, but let’s see if this resolution spurs real action beyond the speeches.

Finally, a bill that honors culture *and* calls out ICE abuses—about time Congress wore a conscience.
