WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, U.S. Senator Pete Ricketts (R-NE) released the following statement following the death of Alex Pretti:
"The nation witnessed a horrifying situation this weekend. My prayers are with the family of Alex Pretti.
"My support for funding ICE remains the same. Enforcing our immigration laws makes our streets safer. It also protects our national security. But we must also maintain our core values as a nation, including the right to protest and assemble.
"I expect a prioritized, transparent investigation into this incident."
