Nationwide protests were held calling to get “ICE out for Good” on Saturday and Sunday. There were more than 1,000 events scheduled nationwide.
These protests were led by groups such as Indivisible, MoveOn Civic Action, the American Civil Liberties Union, Voto Latino, United We Dream, 50501, the Disappeared in America Campaign of the Not Above the Law coalition and others. They come in response to the death of Renee Good, a 37-year-old Minneapolis woman who was fatally shot by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer on Jan. 7.

Federal officials said the woman tried to “run over” agents in an “attempt to kill them.” But local officials and witnesses at the scene said she was no threat to the agents and the shooting was unjustified.
Indivisible noted in a statement that there have been other instances of ICE shootings. An ICE agent shot and killed Silverio Villegas González, in Franklin Park, Illinois in September. On New Year’s Eve, Keith Porter of Los Angeles, California, was fatally shot by an off-duty ICE agent.
Indivisible also pointed out that more than 30 people have died in ICE detention.
“Renee Nicole Good was a wife, a mother of three, and a member of her community. She, and the dozens of other sons, daughters, friends, siblings, parents, and community members who have been killed by ICE, should be alive today,” Leah Greenberg, co-executive director of Indivisible, said in a statement before the protests. “ICE’s violence is not a statistic, it has names, families, and futures attached to it, and we refuse to look away or stay silent.”
There have been other protests and vigils in the days since Good’s death as well.
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo that the federal government is sending “hundreds more” agents to Minnesota on Sunday and Monday.
“If they conduct violent activities against law enforcement, if they impede our operations, that’s a crime, and we will hold them accountable to those consequences,” Noem said.
