Protests against ICE planned across US after shootings in Minneapolis and Portland, OregonProtests against immigration enforcement have been planned across the country after federal officers shot three people in Minneapolis and PortlandByThe Associated PressJanuary 10, 2026, 12:40 AMMINNEAPOLIS -- Protests against immigration enforcement are planned for cities and towns across the country on Saturday after one federal officer fatally shot a woman in Minneapolis and another shot and wounded two people in Portland, Oregon. The demonstrations come as the U. S. Department of Homeland Security pushes forward in the Twin Cities with what it calls its biggest-ever immigration enforcement operation. President Donald Trump's administration has said both shootings were acts of self-defense against drivers who “weaponized” their vehicles to attack officers.

Key Highlights

  • Indivisible, a social movement organization that formed to resist the Trump administration, said hundreds of protests were scheduled in Texas, Kansas, New Mexico, Ohio, Florida and other states.
  • Many were dubbed “ICE Out for Good” using the acronym for the agency Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
  • Indivisible and its local chapters organized protests in all 50 states last year. In Minneapolis, a coalition of migrant rights groups called for a demonstration at Powderhorn Park, a large green space about half a mile from where 37-year-old Renee Good was shot in a residential neighborhood on Wednesday.
  • They said the rally and march would celebrate Good’s life and call for an “end to deadly terror on our streets.”Venezuela live updates: US forces board 5th oil tanker linked to VenezuelaJan 9, 1:28 PMMinneapolis ICE shooting live updates: New video shows different vantage pointJan 9, 3:49 PMFBI releases images of seized motorcycles as search for Ryan Wedding continuesDec 30, 4:51 PMProtests held in the neighborhood so far have been peaceful, in contrast to the violence that hit Minneapolis in the aftermath of the killing of George Floyd in 2020.
