Jailed for “Standing Up”: DHS Assault Victim Aliya Rahman Arrested at State of the Union Address

We speak with Minneapolis resident Aliya Rahman, who attended Tuesday’s State of the Union address as a guest of Congressmember Ilhan Omar. Rahman was removed from the chamber Tuesday and spent several hours in jail following what she describes as an aggressive arrest by Capitol Police — all for silently challenging Trump during the speech. “There are only two things you can do at the State of the Union, and they are sit down and stand up,” says Rahman. “I was arrested for standing up.” Rahman, a U.S. citizen, was violently dragged out of her car and detained by federal immigration officers last month and later released without charge.
