Another Murder by Federal Agents in Minneapolis. Congress Must Act!

Following another killing at the hands of federal agents in Minneapolis, we renew our demand to end Trump’s war on our streets. Alex Jeffrey Pretti was a south Minneapolis resident, a U.S. citizen, and a licensed VA nurse. He should still be alive.

DEMAND AN END TO TRUMP’S WAR ON OUR STREETS
Donald Trump is unleashing masked federal agents and military troops into our neighborhoods—dragging people off the streets, terrorizing families, and treating American communities like occupied zones.

Congress has the power to stop this abuse of power. As veterans, military family members, and civilian supporters, we are demanding they act now.

This is not normal.

Yesterday, more than 50,000 Minneapolis residents joined a peaceful general strike to reject this authoritarian overreach. And today, federal agents shot and killed another person in the street. It’s painfully clear that ICE and DHS are out of control.

OUR STREETS, OUR VOICE: ADD YOUR NAME TO STOP FEDERAL OVERREACH IN OUR LOCAL COMMUNITIES
We are calling for an immediate end to all ICE operations in Minnesota—and across the country—before more of our neighbors are killed by Trump’s intimidation force.As veterans who swore an oath to the Constitution, we call on every American to stand up against this lawlessness and reject the occupation of our beloved communities.

In solidarity,
Jacob Thomas
Director of Communications and Air Force Veteran
