Raskin 因苹果公司删除 ICE 应用程序而斥责该公司众议员杰米·拉斯金（Jamie Raskin）要求苹果公司解释为何在特朗普政府的压力下从应用商店中下架了 ICEBlock 应用程序。这位来自马里兰州的民主党议员一直在调查苹果公司对这款应用程序的处理方式——该应用程序曾允许用户监控移民与海关执法部门的行动。在周一发出的信中，拉斯金谴责苹果公司接受了司法部的辩解，即该应用程序对联邦执法人员构成威胁，并写道：“全国各地的联邦法官都对该政府在事实与证据问题上撒谎的行为表示了警觉。无论司法部向苹果公司提供了关于 ICEBlock 及其他类似应用程序的何种信息，你们都应对其进行彻底调查与核实。”
Raskin rebukes Apple over ICE app Rep. Jamie Raskin is demanding answers from Apple over the removal of ICEBlock from its App Store — at the Trump administration’s urging.

In a letter dated Monday, Raskin denounced the company’s acceptance of the Justice Department’s rationale that the app posed a threat to federal agents, writing: In courthouses across the country, federal judges from across the ideological spectrum have raised the alarm about this Administration’s pattern of lying about facts and evidence. Whatever DOJ told Apple about ICEBlock and other similar apps, you would be well advised to interrogate and verify their claims.
