FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

NFHA Condemns Horrendous Recent Immigration Enforcement Actions in Minnesota 

The National Fair Housing Alliance® (NFHA™) releases the following statement on the recent federal immigration enforcement actions in Minnesota:

“The National Fair Housing Alliance® (NFHA™) condemns in the strongest terms the Trump Administration’s horrific recent immigration enforcement actions that have sown fear, destabilized communities, and resulted in yet another tragic loss of life of a Minneapolis resident. These dangerous tactics undermine public safety and trust the people of America place in the federal government. We stand in solidarity with the community—especially the families—grieving these senseless killings, local residents demanding accountability, and the civil rights advocates calling for a full independent investigation. Enforcement that relies on intimidation and deadly force has no place in our democracy. NFHA calls for de-escalation and policies that center human dignity and keep all families and communities safe.”
