Marysville's public looks for ICE answers from their mayor
MARYSVILLE — Questions about immigration enforcement took over the public portion of Marysville’s “State of the City” speech delivered by Mayor Jon Nehring on Wednesday night.
After the mayor announced the city’s 2025 achievements in infrastructure, quality of life, community management and public safety, Marysville residents in attendance and online were allowed to ask questions. A few were about traffic, but many were about the recent actions of federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Minnesota and across the nation.
Renne Good and Alex Pretti were shot and killed by federal agents in Minneapolis this month. Both were U.S. citizens with no criminal record. At the same time, immigration enforcement has increased in Snohomish County, including a recent drug and firearms bust in Marysville.
“If chaos ensues in Marysville, who is responsible? Is it you mayor? Is it the chief of police? Is it the City Council?” asked a Marysville resident who went by Danielle. “Residents deserve to know who will be held accountable if violence occurs, if civil rights are violated or if the state fails to protect its people.”
