Stand with Minnesota
On January 23rd, tens of thousands of Minnesotans marched in subzero temperatures to call for an end to the federal occupation of our state.
The morning of January 24th, that occupation claimed another life. Alex Jeffery Pretti was killed by ICE agents while trying to aid a neighbor who had been pepper sprayed.
We demand the immediate removal of this dangerous force from our neighborhoods. They have shown no regard for human life or the Constitution.
Like the courageous Minnesotans demonstrating peacefully, we call upon the rest of the country to speak up. Contact your Members of Congress immediately. Do not look away.
NCJW|MN stands with our community and the loved ones affected. We reaffirm our commitment to Justice, accountability, and building systems that protect, not harm, every member of our state.
