More than 1,000 protests, vigils and rallies are planned across the US this weekend after ICE agents shot three people, killing one, in Minneapolis and Portland, sparking nationwide outrage and calls to remove ICE from communities.

More than a thousand protests are planned across the United States this weekend following the fatal shooting of a civilian by ICE agents in Minneapolis and the shooting of two migrants in Portland, Oregon.
The actions are being organized as part of the “ICE Out for Good Weekend of Action,” coordinated by Indivisible, the group behind last year’s No Kings protests, alongside the American Civil Liberties Union, the National Day Laborer Organizing Network and the 50501 movement.
“This weekend, people all over are coming together not just to mourn the lives lost to ICE violence, but to confront a pattern of harm that has torn families apart and terrorized our communities,” said Leah Greenberg, co-executive director of Indivisible.
On January 7, Minneapolis resident and US citizen Renee Nicole Good was fatally shot by an ICE agent during an immigration sweep. Video footage filmed by community members attempting to disrupt the operation spread rapidly online, prompting thousands to gather at the site of the shooting. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey told ICE to “get the fuck out” of the city, while some Democratic lawmakers threatened to withhold funding from the Department of Homeland Security.
The following day, ICE agents shot Venezuelan immigrants Yorlenys Betzabeth Zambrano-Contreras and Luis David Nico Moncada outside a hospital in Portland. Protests continued to grow nationwide, while six demonstrators were arrested during clashes in Portland.
Indivisible said events are planned in every state, from Honolulu, Hawaiʻi, to Machias, Maine, with its online tracker continuously updated to list vigils, rallies and marches.
“We demand justice for Renee, ICE out of our communities and action from our elected leaders,” Greenberg said. “Enough is enough.”
Steven Eubanks, 51, who planned to attend a protest in Durham, North Carolina, told the Associated Press that the killing of Good compelled him to act.
“We can’t allow it,” he said. “We have to stand up.”
