Fetterman urges Minneapolis ICE op to stand down as city spirals to ‘ungovernable and dangerous’ levels
This affects the entire country.
Democratic Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman is calling for an immediate end to the Minnesota immigration crackdown after the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti Saturday by federal law enforcement, he said in comment to Fox News Digital.
"The operation in Minneapolis should stand down and immediately end," Fetterman said Monday in a comment to Fox News Digital. "It has become an ungovernable and dangerous urban theatre for civilians and law enforcement that is incompatible with the American spirit."
"As a very pro-immigration Democrat and Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Border Management, I believe our nation deserves a secured border and that we should deport all criminal migrants," he continued. "I also believe there needs to be a path to citizenship for those hardworking families who are here."
Fetterman's comments on the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operation follow his vocal support of federal law enforcement officers, breaking with many Democrat colleagues who have called for the end to the Trump administration's immigration crackdown and for ICE overall to be defunded.

Fetterman added in his statement Monday that he continues to buck calls to defund ICE.
Fox News Digital reached out to Fetterman's office Monday morning inquiring about his wife's X post blasting the Trump administration’s immigration policies, even as her husband has publicly backed federal immigration officers.
"For more than a decade, I lived undocumented in the US. Every day carried the same uncertainty and fear lived in my body - a tight chest, shallow breaths, racing heart," the senator's wife, Gisele Barreto Fetterman, wrote Sunday. "What I thought was my private, chronic dread has now become a shared national wound."
"This now-daily violence is not 'law and order.' It is terror inflicted on people who contribute, love and build their lives here," she continued. "It's devastatingly cruel and unAmerican."
Gisele Barreto Fetterman previously has discussed moving to the U.S. from Brazil as a child, including as an illegal immigrant for a decade.
