I am writing as a deeply concerned constituent regarding the tragic death of a Renee Nicole Good during an encounter involving federal immigration authorities. Reports surrounding this incident have raised serious questions about the conduct of the ICE agents involved, the directives under which they were operating, and the broader climate of rhetoric and policy decisions from national leaders that may have contributed to this outcome.
Regardless of political affiliation, every American deserves transparency, accountability, and the assurance that federal agencies operate within the bounds of the law and with respect for human life. When a citizen dies during a government operation, it is imperative that Congress exercise its oversight responsibilities fully and without hesitation.
I urge you to support a thorough, independent investigation into this incident—one that examines not only the actions of the individual agents, but also any policies, directives, or public statements from senior officials, including President Trump and Secretary Noem, that may have influenced or shaped the environment in which this tragedy occurred. The American people must not be left with conflicting narratives or attempts to minimize or obscure the facts. Trust in our institutions depends on clear, honest, and comprehensive accountability.
This is not a partisan request. It is a call for the basic principles of justice, transparency, and responsible governance. I ask that you publicly advocate for full disclosure of the facts, support appropriate oversight hearings, and ensure that any wrongdoing—whether at the individual or leadership level—is addressed through the proper legal and administrative channels.
Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. I hope you will act decisively to uphold the standards of accountability that every American has the right to expect from their government.
