Jeffries, Schumer Blast ICE and Kristi Noem After Fatal Minneapolis Shooting
House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer condemned federal immigration enforcement leadership following the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis. Jeffries described the incident as an “abomination” and accused the Trump administration and DHS Secretary Kristi Noem of pushing extreme policies unrelated to targeting violent offenders. He said Democrats support deporting violent felons but argued that was not the case here. Schumer said video of the incident was deeply disturbing and questioned whether the actions shown were justified, calling for full investigations at both the federal and local levels. Both leaders suggested congressional oversight and funding decisions could be used to hold ICE accountable.
