The shooting and killing of a 37-year-old man by federal immigration officers in Minnesota last weekend has spurred condemnation from politicians across the country, including Colorado lawmakers.
Pretti had taken part in protests after the killing of Renee Good, who was shot by a federal immigration officer on Jan. 7, just over a mile away from where Pretti was killed.
Federal officials said Pretti approached immigration officers with a handgun before he was shot.
Both are opposed to a government funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Customs and Border Protection agency.
Sen. Michael Bennet said in a statement on Tuesday that he is also working on legislation to impose new “guardrails and accountability measures” for the Department of Homeland Security, Customs and Border Protection, and ICE.
