ICE has lied before. Houston needs an independent investigation.
The Houston Chronicle has an exclusive op-ed from City Council Member Alejandra Salinas demanding an independent investigation into ICE fatally shooting a man who had lived in Houston for more than 30 years. Here's a key quote:
>ICE’s account of Salgado Araujo’s death echoes a story ICE has told America before. After ICE agents killed Renee Nicole Good, a mother of three, and Alex Pretti, a nurse who cared for veterans, the Trump administration rushed to defend its agents and discredit those they killed.
>Now, before an independent review, ICE is asking Houstonians to accept a nearly identical story about Mr. Salgado Araujo.
>We must not allow ICE’s violence to become normal in the streets of Houston.
>What we are witnessing is the direct result of President Donald Trump’s reckless decision to flood cities with federal agents, prioritizing fear, intimidation, and political theater over public safety. Time and again, this administration has shown that it is willing to endanger lives, even when local leaders and communities make clear that these tactics make cities less safe, not more.
