This is the Mark Simone show on 710 W.O.R. In for Mark today, here's Ken Rosado. And it's so good to be with you that day before Thanksgiving. And our friend here, Billy Prempa, is an Air Force veteran who is running for Congress in New Jersey's 9th Congressional District, which includes the city of Patterson, a heavily Hispanic district, which

voted for President Trump. The New Jersey State Senate recently introduced a bill that would

make it illegal, illegal for ICE agents to wear masks when doing their work. It would be

punishable by a fine of up to $1,000 time behind bars so we say good morning to

billy preppa what do you think about the nuttiness of the new jersey state senate

i mean i think you nailed it right there it's straight up muddiness i mean i think

democratic party is trying to find any opportunity to obstruct what president

trump is trying to do in this country the people want safer streets we want to have these people out of our country. And the truth is that working as an ICE agent, it's a very difficult job. It can be very dangerous. It even puts you at risk. And I think that having someone arrested and put in jail and fine, it only, it's only done to try and disincentivize or ice agents from getting their work

done, but it only empowers a criminal at the end of the day. You know, Billy, I thought the Democrats

were the party that loved masks. Think about it. Exactly. But they are saying there would be an

exemption to medical masks or to masks that are see-through, like the face

shields. So here's what I would do. If I was the head of ICE in the region, I would say, well,

these are medical masks. They're medically required because every one of our agents was exposed

to a substance at work, so they have to wear medical masks. I mean, technically, there's vagueness

in the way the law is written.

But, I mean, it's unenforceable nonetheless because, right, the supremacy clause of the Constitution says state and local laws cannot be enacted that would supersede federal laws.

Yeah, and that's the issue that I think that the Democratic Party is doing here.

It's like the rules for the, rules, not for me kind of scenario.

When the pandemic was going on, they all were in favor for it.

But now when people are trying to do their job, they're completely against it.

And the issue is that you also bring up a very valid point. It's like like we don't know who's coming in, what they have or what the situation may be.

I think it's no different than police officers even covering their face when they're entering
