Blue States Push Back on ICE

Lawmakers in blue states are pushing back against federal immigration enforcement, following the fatal shooting of Renee Good by an ICE agent in Minneapolis. Bills aim to limit cooperation with ICE, ban data collection in schools and hospitals, and even prevent ICE hires from working in local police jobs. The controversy has sparked widespread outrage, with lawmakers comparing ICE agents to the Gestapo and warning of eroding public trust. Even in conservative states, lawmakers are filing bills to restrict federal agents access to schools. As state sessions begin this week, momentum builds for these sanctuary-style policies.
