Rep. Michael Baumgartner calls for congressional hearing after ICE agent shot and killed Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis last week, saying lawmakers need full accounting of incident.
A House Republican is calling for a congressional hearing after an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent shot a woman in Minneapolis last week.
« We need to make sure that people understand what happened and have a full accounting of it », Rep. Michael Baumgartner, R-Wash., told Fox News Digital on Thursday.
Baumgartner is a member of the House Judiciary Committee, which shares oversight of ICE with the House Homeland Security Committee.
He cautioned people against « jumping to conclusions » about the incident in Minneapolis but said of federal agents, « It is so important for everyone’s safety that they’re able to do their jobs without people interfering. »
« You certainly never want to see somebody be killed », Baumgartner said. « When you have a tragedy like this, oftentimes people want to map onto it whatever political partisan view they have on it.
