This killing is part of a broader pattern of unchecked violence, impunity, and abuse carried out by federal immigration enforcement agencies against members of our communities.A broad coalition of groups across the country is calling for coordinated Ice Out For Good actions on Friday, January 23rd in solidarity with Minnesota, and to demand accountability, honor the life lost, and make visible the human cost of ICE’s actions.Click here for a link to details about the event. Please share!OUR DEMANDS:**ICE must leave Minnesota now – ICE is not welcome in Arizona.**The officer who killed Renee Good must be held legally accountable.**No additional federal funding for ICE in the upcoming Jan. 30th Congressional budget and ICE should be investigated for human and Constitutional violations of Americans and our neighbors.We call upon MN and national companies to become 4th Amendment businesses, cease economic relations with ICE and refuse ICE entry or using their property for staging grounds.We especially call on Target, Home Depot, Delta, Hilton and Enterprise to take a stand against ICE and to do more to protect our communities from ICE.A core principle behind all ICE Out For Good events is a commitment to nonviolent action and no civil disobedience. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values, and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events. |
