People of Twin Cities awarded JFK Profile in Courage Award over resistance to ICE surge
The people of Minneapolis-St. Paul are being honored with a John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award for their response to the federal immigration enforcement operation this winter, the JFK Library Foundation announced Wednesday.
The award recognizes residents who risked their lives to protect neighbors and immigrant community members during what the Department of Homeland Security described as the largest federal immigration enforcement action in U.S. history, according to the foundation.
Starting in late 2025, more than 3,000 federal agents from ICE and U.S. Border Patrol were deployed to the Twin Cities metro area.
The foundation highlighted that tens of thousands of residents took to the streets to peacefully protest federal overreach and threats to immigrant families and constitutional protections. Others documented enforcement activity and alerted neighbors to federal agents' presence, including two who were killed by enforcement agents: Renee Good and Alex Pretti.
