"Please get the truth out about our son." Right now, Alex Pretti's parents have no way to hold the thugs who killed him accountable. That's why we have to do more than stop funding DHS and ICEโwe need to abolish qualified immunity and secure justice for these families.

Every Democratic Senator must vote NO on DHS/ICE funding. Continuing to fund this agency that is terrorizing and murdering our people makes you complicit. They EXECUTED Alex Pretti. Every Senator must draw a line in the stand here.

I am not exaggerating when I say ICE functions as a terrorist organization in the Twin Cities. The goal seems to be to harass and frighten people (the ones who are lucky enough to not be abducted, at least) and it's deeply unsettling when you learn they're in your neighborhood.
