Indivisible Sequim, which has organized several peaceful demonstrations against the policies and actions of the Trump administration, continued its efforts with a candlelight vigil held at Sequim’s Centennial Place on Tuesday evening, Jan. 27. The gathering, which according to organizers drew about 150 people, was in honor of Minneapolis residents Alex Pretti and Renee Good, both 37 and both U.S. citizens, who were fatally shot by federal agents sent to Minneapolis to enforce immigration policies.
U.S. Rep. Emily Randall (D) of Washington’s 6th Congressional District attended the vigil.
Pretti, an ICU nurse, was killed around 9 a.m. Saturday, Jan. 24 by a Border Patrol officer while Pretti was protesting and filming federal agents. Good was killed on Jan. 27 by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent.
In a press conference on the morning of Thursday, Jan. 29, border czar Tom Homan, sent to Minneapolis by President Donald Trump following the removal of Greg Bovino as US Border Patrol commander at large, said federal authorities are working on a “draw-down plan.” He also said that agents will continue to enforce immigration laws.
“President Trump wants this fixed, and I’m going to fix it with your help,” he stated.
