Portland Mayor Keith Wilson has called for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to leave the city following a violent confrontation where federal agents used tear gas and other munitions against peaceful demonstrators, including children. Wilson denounced the actions of ICE as unconstitutional and urged agents to resign, stating that the federal presence should not involve violence against the community. He emphasized Portland’s commitment to immigrant safety and announced efforts to hold the federal government accountable for their actions, coinciding with increased scrutiny of immigration enforcement tactics nationwide. The protests were sparked by recent killings of U.S. citizens by federal immigration agents in Minneapolis, raising concerns over enforcement methods.
