flag Senator Susan Collins is calling for a temporary pause in ICE enforcement operations in Maine and Minnesota, citing concerns over their scope and conduct following the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti, a U.S. citizen, by a Border Patrol agent. flag She urged Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to review operations, express concern over training and targeting of lawfully present individuals, and requested an independent investigation. flag While supporting the broader DHS funding bill with accountability measures like body cameras and de-escalation training, Collins opposes altering it to avoid a government shutdown. flag Her stance has drawn criticism from Democrats and activists, who demand deeper reforms or cuts to ICE funding.
