Family of Renee Good Urges Congressional Action After Tragic Death

In a poignant hearing at Capitol Hill, the brothers of Renee Good, a U.S. citizen killed by federal agents during an immigration crackdown, expressed their deep sorrow and called for significant reforms in the operations of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Border Patrol. They lamented the lack of change in aggressive tactics employed by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) since her death and described the emotional toll their family has endured. Their appeals for action resonated with Democratic lawmakers, who decried the brutality of DHS tactics. The brothers highlighted the disturbing frequency of violent encounters with immigration officials and shared their hope for a legislative response to prevent further tragedies. The hearing saw testimonies from other victims of aggressive immigration enforcement, yet it was noted that no Republican lawmakers attended the session.
