Billie Eilish has joined a growing number of artists criticizing U.S. immigration enforcement following the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer in Minneapolis, prompting a sharp response from the Department of Homeland Security.

In a series of posts shared with her millions of followers, Billie Eilish described ICE as a "federally funded and supported terrorist group" and urged Americans to contact their members of Congress to demand that the agency be defunded. She also called for the arrest and prosecution of the officer involved in the shooting and circulated a list of people who reportedly died in ICE custody last year.
