WEEK OF ACTION IN HONOR OF ALEX PRETTI, RN AND ALL OTHERS KILLED BY ICE

Veterans Affairs ICU registered nurse Alex Pretti, who saved veterans’ lives at the Minneapolis VA, was killed by ICE agents on Jan 24 during ongoing protests over immigration enforcement operations. Pretti upheld his oath to advocate for and protect his patients and community to the very end as a peaceful, public legal observer of ICE atrocities. Nurses across the Country are holding actions to honor the fallen nurse. While this vigil has been brought about by Nurse Pretti's death, we must never forget all those who have lost their lives in ICE's radical increase of enforcement tactics, we will be honoring their lives as well and call for justice.

Join National Nurses United RN members to honor Pretti and all who have been murdered by ICE, as well as demand that Congress vote to immediately abolish this violent, racist, and lawless agency that poses a dire public health threat to all of our communities.
