On January 23, 2026, clergy-led anti-ICE protesters staged a sit-in at Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport during a statewide “ICE Out of Minnesota: Day of Truth and Freedom” action; organizers said roughly 100 clergy were arrested after demonstrators moved beyond a permitted area, while airport officials said operations remained uninterrupted and arrests were made to protect safety and access to Terminal 1. The protests — in frigid subzero weather — were fueled by outrage over the Jan. 7 killing of Renée Good by an ICE agent and broader deportation flights; organizers urged airlines to stop cooperating with ICE and drew attention.
