PITTSBURGH — Dozens of people gathered Downtown on Wednesday night, calling for Immigration and Customs Enforcement to stay out of the city.
The protest was one of hundreds that took place across the country after an ICE agent shot and killed a woman in Minnesota.
Pittsburgh had a non-cooperation policy with ICE under Mayor Ed Gainey. Now, community members are calling on the new administration to uphold that policy.
“The call for our new mayor to continue the policy of no cooperation with ICE in the city of Pittsburgh,” said Guillermo Perez of the Labor Council of Latin America. “And I’d take it just one step further. We call on Gov. Josh Shapiro — no state police cooperation."
