(MSC News)--United States Senator Jerry Moran is reacting to the recent, fatal shootings in Minneapolis involving federal ICE agents.

In a Facebook post Monday, Moran called for a full investigation to ensure transparency and accountability. He wrote that he’s “deeply troubled,” and cited constitutional protections, including the rights of free speech, peaceful assembly, and bearing arms.

Moran said law enforcement should reflect the nation’s values, and that citizens should obey the law.

Moran said enforcing immigration laws—removing dangerous criminals from streets and neighborhoods—makes the country safer while strengthening national security.

The Kansas Republican also argued that Americans expect government to protect communities from lawless behavior, saying that can only happen if local, state, and federal officials work together to uphold the law.
