US Attorney General Pam Bondi is demanding in a letter that the immigration agency ICE be given more room to operate in Minnesota - shortly after a person was fatally shot during an ICE operation.

She again calls on Minnesota's Democratic Governor Tim Walz to repeal the "sanctuary policies" applied in several of the state's cities that limit local police cooperation with federal authorities in the hunt for undocumented migrants.

She also reiterates the Trump administration's demand for access to documents from local health care and food assistance programs, with the express purpose of investigating fraud. Minnesota fears they will be used to track migrants.

Bondi is also demanding access to the state's voter rolls to review how voter registration is being handled, a demand she has made before.
