People are still being abducted, the missing are still lost, people are still terrorized.
A reminder that ICE hasn’t slowed down in Minneapolis at all.
Outside of Minnesota, it might feel like everything has changed since Alex Pretti’s murder. But ICE hasn’t actually lost any power and they’re continuing to terrorize our communities.

If your congressperson hasn’t backed this, call them and tell them to.
It is one tiny step, and of course, it will not change everything. But people need to face consequences for their actions.

146 House Democrats back the articles of impeachment I introduced against Secretary Noem.
Secretary Noem has blood on her hands. Under her leadership, Alex Pretti and Renee Nicole Good were murdered.
Impeach Noem. Get ICE out of our cities.

Old enough to remember times when cruelty to children created massive political shifts.
Reminder that, in recent days, children have rallied and protested for their freedom inside an ICE detention center where water has been described as "putrid" and meals reportedly contain “bugs,” dirt, and debris. This is where the kidnapped 5-year-old Liam Ramos is being held.

2. Alex Pretti's murderers are still at large, unnamed and still working on our dime.
