A letter signed by multiple senators expresses concern about a plan to purchase devices that can administer electric shocks. The senators question the need for such devices and the ability to use them safely. They cite past incidents of force misuse, which raises doubts about the agency's capability to deploy these tools without causing harm.

The letter was sent to the acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, urging cancellation of the plan. The devices in question are gloves that can deliver painful shocks. Further details about the plan and the letter are available.

The letter was signed by a group of senators, led by a Democrat from Nevada, along with several colleagues from the Democratic caucus and Independents.
