Federal authorities have dismissed allegations of wrongdoing in connection with the Minneapolis ICE shooting, stating that there is "no basis" for a civil rights investigation. The Department of Justice (DOJ) maintained its stance in response to mounting pressure from community leaders and lawmakers.
Lawmakers from the Minnesota House of Representatives have condemned the Trump administration's decision to terminate Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Somalis next month, calling it a "significant departure from decades of bipartisan humanitarian policy." They argue that ending TPS will not change the dire circumstances in Somalia but rather create fear, disrupt families, and destabilize communities here in the US.
The Minneapolis delegation has voiced its opposition to immigration policies that tear apart families and erode public trust. The group's statement highlights the human cost of such policies, stating that they "undermine community stability" and "separate families."

... I mean, can't we just treat everyone with dignity and respect? It's not like they're going to magically become Americans overnight, you know? 
The fact that lawmakers are standing up against this is a great start, but what about the people who don't have a voice in all this? The ones who are already living in fear because of these policies? 
We need to do better, we need to listen and understand. Ending TPS for Somalis next month just doesn't seem fair to me... 
I think it's super concerning that the federal authorities are basically saying there's no wrongdoing in the Minneapolis ICE shooting 
. Like, what even is going on here? The fact that community leaders and lawmakers are pushing for a civil rights investigation just goes to show that there needs to be more transparency and accountability 
.
. It's like, we know the situation in Somalia isn't great, but does ending TPS really solve anything? It's more likely to create fear and disrupt families 
. Our lawmakers should be advocating for solutions that actually help people, not just tearing them apart 
. It's like, you're already dealing with so many challenges in Somalia, and then you get stuck in the US system that's supposed to be helping you, but instead is just tearing families apart 
. I'm thinking of all these parents who are going to have to say goodbye to their kids, or vice versa... it's just too much 
. Can't we just try to find a way to make things better for everyone involved? 
and now lawmakers are going straight to the Trump admin about TPS for Somalis... it's like, come on, fam! 
It's not just about politics, it's about human lives. Those people who lost loved ones at that ICE shooting deserve justice 
. Can we please have a more compassionate approach to this? We gotta keep our communities stable & make sure everyone is treated fairly 
.
its crazy how authorities are saying theres no basis for a civil rights investigation tho like what even is the point of having those if we dont use them? 
i mean, isnt it already hard enough for ppl who have to deal with immigration stuff, now they gotta worry about families getting torn apart? 
That's what's gonna happen to these Somali people... or at least that's how it seems.
instead, we're tearin' people apart, leavin' 'em with nothin'. it's just so... human. 
Anyway, back to the news... I think it's really sad what's going on with immigration policies in the US. Ending TPS for Somalis is just cruel
