US EditionDemocrats propose state laws to limit ICE after Minneapolis shooting of Renee Good
Democrats seek to limit federal immigration enforcement powers and protect constitutional rights after Renee Good's shooting; New Jersey passed three bills Monday, expanding legal protections.
- After the Jan. 7 shooting in Minneapolis, Democratic lawmakers across the country propose state laws to rein in Immigration and Customs Enforcement, accelerating long-floated measures.
- The encounter involved an officer firing three shots, once through the windshield and twice through the open window, while Renée Nicole Good was unarmed and not fleeing, raising officer‑created‑danger doctrine concerns.
- On Monday, New Jersey's Democrat-led Legislature passed three bills including one barring state law enforcement from cooperating with federal immigration enforcement, while New York, Oregon, and California proposed measures targeting ICE practices.

- Across red and blue states, legal experts warn many laws raise novel constitutional issues, with federal courts almost guaranteed to adjudicate disputes as Georgia Democrats and New Hampshire's Republican majorities enact conflicting measures this month.
