ICE is not a neutral security force. ICE and federal agents have been militarizing our cities and terrorizing our communities—murdering civilians, pointing their guns at protesters and observers, and kidnapping our neighbors off the street. ICE has consistently met any peaceful protest with more state-sanctioned violence. They’ve abducted toddlers and murdered Minnesotans Renee Good and Alex Pretti. They’re countering whistles and cameras with guns and tear gas. Even when we have video evidence of their violence, they're telling us not to believe our own eyes. The presence of Homeland Security Investigations, a branch of ICE, at the Winter Olympics is allegedly to “mitigate risks from transnational criminal organizations.” But we already know the agency has a documented history of making false claims to justify raids, deportations, and politically motivated operations, like the recent kidnapping of Venezuela’s president. Team USA should publicly oppose ICE’s involvement at the Winter Games and ensure that U.S. participation reflects global unity and respect for all, not intimidation and fear. Demand the U.S. Olympic Team opposes ICE at the 2026 Winter Olympics!

Students around Georgia have been missing or dropping out of school due to fear of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Our parents are scared and our families are in crisis. Immigrants make 20% of all people in Dekalb County. They are active members of the community contributing every day and deserve to be protected from the attacks. We deserve to have a safe learning environment in school and feel supported by our elected leaders.  Dekalb County prides themselves on diversity and inclusion, this is the time to show immigrants are included in that diversity. We need to show up for each other and for our leaders to be courageous in the stand against ICE. 

Minnesota families are living in fear. With federal agents menacing our neighborhoods and the horrifying loss of two community members, we need action. The sports team owners who profit on Minnesota’s deep passion for athletics must speak up. Renee Good and Alex Pretti sacrificed their lives to protect our community. The owners of these teams have an obligation to keep their fans safe while representing the values of our community. Minnesotans competing in the Olympics are united with us in this struggle. Team USA curler Rich Ruohonen emphasized, “We have a constitution. What’s happening in Minnesota is unjust.” Vikings legend John Randle passionately voiced his support, stating, “I love Minnesota and stand with my entire community. #iceout.” It’s time for our Minnesota team owners to demonstrate leadership and firmly declare that ICE and federal agents will not be permitted to intimidate fans at games. Additionally, these owners should use their influence with President Trump to convey a clear message: Minnesotans want ICE permanently removed from our state!

DHS under Secretary Noem can be quickly summed up: Impunity. Injustice. Slanderous propaganda. Violence. As out-of-control ICE and CBP agents kill with impunity in our communities, Kristi Noem has proven herself to be utterly unfit to lead the Department of Homeland Security and rein in this violence. Indeed, she’s often spurred it on. We will never get the accountability we deserve so long as Noem is leading DHS, which is why Congress must take matters into its own hands and push her out.

The Constitution guarantees American citizens and immigrants rights and liberties. We elect our leaders to uphold the Constitution and to protect our rights and freedoms; not to look away as federal agencies are given license to strip them away. Currently, ICE and BP officers are disappearing people off the streets and detaining them with no due process, they’re smashing car windows to gain access to people, requiring people to provide proof of citizenship on the spot, and killing people without cause. These actions are antithetical to our democracy, our security and our liberty. We elect our leaders to represent us, the American people, and our democracy not to uphold the extreme tactics of an administration. We need our leaders to fulfill their vows to the constitution. We need our leaders to step forward with courage to protect the people who voted for them and that pay their salaries. We need them to do so now before our precious democracy is lost.

As long as ICE exists, even with "safeguards" like body cameras and training, then we aren't safe.  Minnesota knows too well there is no real solution but to disband ICE.  Furthermore, other solutions to immigration can be found.  Spain announced on January 27 that it is granting legal status to hundreds of thousands of people already living and working there but lacking authorization.  Instead of ICE enforcement, we could do something like that and stop wasting taxpayer money pretending it will help anything to hunt innocent, hard working people down.

We can't let ICE and other federal agents to keep terrorizing our kids and neighbors. DC Council needs to stand up for us NOW. They must ban MPD from collaborating. They must hold ICE accountable. They must use their voices instead of being silent.  

Georgia is fourth highest in the nation for ICE arrests - and it is in no small part because of state and local law enforcement cooperation with ICE/DHS. The Georgia Department of Public Safety - under which the Georgia State Patrol falls - has a so-called 287(g) agreement to cooperate with ICE.

Georgia is fourth highest in the nation for ICE arrests - and it is in no small part because of state and local law enforcement cooperation with ICE/DHS.

We will succeed in passing the Safe Communities Act (S.1681/H.2580) in the current 194th session at a time when it is most needed, given the militant excesses of NHS ICE agents.

Masked, unidentified federal agents have been militarizing our cities and brutalizing our communities in order to carry out Trump’s extreme deportation agenda. These agents—outfitted for war—are showing up at schools, work places, immigration courts, and people’s homes, kidnapping and deporting our neighbors without any due process.  Vice President JD Vance argued that federal agents are protected by “absolute immunity” and boasted that their efforts are being ramped up, saying agents will soon be “going door to door.” This terrifying escalation of state violence makes it clear—something must change.  Our communities deserve safety, dignity, and justice. Minnesotans are showing up for Renee Nicole Good, Alex Jeffrey Pretti, Kieth Porter, 5-year-old Liam Ramos who was abducted by ICE, and countless others. Now it’s time for Congress to show up for us and put an end to this terror. Congress can refuse to give ICE another dime and demand real accountability for the harm these agents inflict. But they need to hear from us, loudly and clearly, that we will not tolerate more funding for any agency that treats our neighbors as enemies. 

Friends in Seminole County,  Please consider signing this petition to get ICE out of our beloved County. Let's let their cruelty strengthen our solidarity. 💪 Recent atrocities committed against both immigrants and citizens under the Trump administration have shone a light on abuses of power by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and its parent agency, Customs and Border Protection (CBP). Since ICE and CBP were established in 2003, the agencies have terrorized immigrant communities, conducted unconstitutional border checkpoints, torn apart families, denied immigrants their due process rights, and subjected detained immigrants to physical, sexual, and mental abuse. The killing of Renee Good in Minnesota was the 9th ICE shooting since September 2025. ICE also received an influx of billions in additional funding from the so-called "One Big Beautiful" bill. The bill placed no guardrails or conditional oversight on the use of this money, essentially creating a $75 billion slush fund for ICE to continue their violent attacks on communities across the country. This lawless and violent agency must be defunded and dissolved for good. Thank you for standing up for our Community and making our streets safer for everyone.
