Statement on the Cold-Blooded Murder of Renee Nicole Good by ICE in Minneapolis

We condemn the brutal killing of Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old community observer gunned down by ICE agent Jonathan Ross in Minneapolis on January 7, 2026. We all saw video evidence that shows ICE officers surrounding her vehicle and opening fire. It was an execution in broad daylight.

We understand this killing in the context of the Trump administration’s escalating campaign of terror against immigrants. It has been months of mass deportations, family separations, detention camps, and open violence. Trump has deployed ICE to enforce a racist anti-immigrant agenda targeting Chicanos, Mexicanos, Central Americans, Somalis, and others. People standing in solidarity with immigrants, like Renee Nicole Good, acting as a community observer, are apparently targets too. The death toll is mounting. And the very next day, Luis David Nico Moncada and Yorlenys Betzabeth Zambrano-Contreras were shot and hospitalized by ICE in Portland.
