Friend –
This week brought devastating news. Renee Good was killed during an encounter with federal immigration enforcement in Minneapolis. It is a loss that never should have happened, and it is part of a broader pattern of violence carried out with little accountability.
When federal agencies are allowed to operate without meaningful oversight, the consequences are deadly. Communities are left to absorb the harm while officials deflect responsibility and continue business as usual. That cycle must be confronted, publicly and collectively.
In response, People For the American Way is partnering with our allies to mobilize communities nationwide for the “ICE Out For Good” Weekend of Action on Saturday, January 10, and Sunday, January 11. These actions are a direct response to violence and abuse of power, and a demand that federal immigration enforcement be held accountable for the harm it causes.
These events are community led, nonviolent, and lawful, and they are a direct demand for accountability in the face of ongoing federal violence. They make visible the real human cost of unchecked enforcement and apply public pressure where oversight has failed. Showing up together is a way to insist that lives cannot be treated as collateral damage.

No event near you? Sign up now to host one in your community. >>
Whether you attend a gathering near you or help organize one in your own community, your participation matters. Public presence is how pressure builds, how patterns of abuse are exposed, and how silence is broken.
If you are able, we urge you to join us this weekend and invite others to do the same. Accountability does not happen on its own. It happens when communities demand it.
In solidarity,
People For the American Way
