John, after another terrible and horrific killing by federal agents in Minneapolis, I wanted you to see this critical message from our partners at Democracy for America Advocacy Fund.
The Coalition to Hold ICE Accountable Now is making sure ICE agents on the ground know they could be prosecuted and go to jail. And they inform the community of a lawful, powerful and effective way to respond when ICE breaks the law: Call 911.

John,
Our billboards are up across Minneapolis making one thing clear: ICE agents are not above the law, they can be arrested, prosecuted and go to jail for breaking state laws.
Democracy for America AF is partnering with our allies at Democratic Values to take on ICE directly in the streets of Minneapolis. Split a rush donation to keep these billboards up in high-profile, can’t-miss locations across the city now.
Federal agents have once again killed a legal observer in broad daylight on the streets of Minneapolis.
Once again the entire incident was caught on video from many angles. In the videos, you can see that Alex Jeffrey Pretti, a 37-year old ICU nurse for the Veterans Affairs hospital in Minneapolis, was trying to help a woman who was being physically assaulted by the same masked agents who would kill him minutes later.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) -- hundreds of miles away from any U.S. border -- shot him at point blank range while at least 4 agents held him facedown on his knees. Video also contradicts DHS’s claim that Alex intended to “massacre” Border Patrol agents.
Capturing all of it on video is once again proving to be the single best way to expose ICE lies and make sure Americans know the truth. The second best way to create a public record that can’t be erased or hidden from state investigators, the media or the public is to call 911.
That’s why we’ve put up billboards across Minneapolis making it clear ICE agents are not above the law. ICE really hates these billboards, because we’re also making sure the millions of Minnesotans who live in the metro area know how to report illegal ICE activity.
Rush a split donation to keep these billboards up in Minneapolis and help us expand this campaign to hold ICE accountable in other cities across the country now.
Together, we can stop ICE’s lawless conduct and demand accountability.
