On this edition of Your Call, we're hearing testimony from the brothers of Renee Good and survivors of ICE violence.
Last Tuesday, at a congressional hearing, Renee Good’s brothers, Luke and Brent Ganger, remembered their sister and read her eulogy. Aliya Rahman, Marimar Martinez, and Martin Daniel Rascon shared stories of being shot, assaulted, and harassed by ICE agents. Not a single Republican lawmaker attended the hearing.
Later in the show, we'll discuss a new WIRED piece, "ICE is expanding across the US at breakneck speed. Here’s where it’s going next."
What will it take to hold ICE accountable?
