Congress members hold field hearing in St Paul, warning of future investigation into federal agents’ deadly use of force
People in Minneapolis and St Paul: what is life like in the Twin Cities right now?
A large group of Democratic Congress members, senators and state politicians on Friday condemned the “intense trauma and terror” caused by Donald Trump’s immigration enforcement surge in Minnesota.
One lawmaker warned the homeland security secretary, Kristi Noem, to preserve records for an investigation into the administration’s deadly use of force.
The dozens of leaders staged an “accountability” hearing at the state capitol in St Paul into Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency (ICE) actions as demonstrations continued to spread in the city and elsewhere, along with sporadic clashes with federal officers nine days after Renee Nicole Good was shot and killed by an ICE officer.
