Krishnamoorthi Renews Demand for Trump Administration Accountability in the Wake of Portland and South Minneapolis DHS Shootings

WASHINGTON — Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL) issued the following statement in response to a shooting in Portland involving federal immigration enforcement personnel:

“Only a day after the shooting in South Minneapolis, the country saw another incident tied to DHS’s militarized immigration enforcement in Portland—underscoring a dangerous national pattern. In Chicago, operations like the so-called ‘Midway Blitz’ have already shown how these tactics escalate risk and erode trust in our communities. Secretary Kristi Noem and the Trump administration must fully account for why this approach continues and how it is putting civilians in harm’s way. I will use my position on the Oversight Committee to demand accountability, transparency, and testimony from Secretary Noem for the abuse and misconduct that have flourished on her watch.”
