CNN To Host Town Hall On Minneapolis “State Of Emergency”

Anderson Cooper and Sara Sidner will host a CNN town hall on Wednesday from Minneapolis, reeling from the shooting deaths of Alex Pretti and Renee Good by federal agents.

State of Emergency: Confronting the Crisis in Minnesota – A CNN Town Hall will include Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and will include a live audience with participants across the political spectrum, the network said. It will take place in a community center in the city.

The town hall will air at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on the linear network and streaming channel.

Frey has urged the Trump administration to end its immigration crackdown in the city, where masked ICE agents have swept up citizens in their enforcement operations and have clashed with protesters. On Monday, Trump announced that he would be sending Tom Homan, his border czar, to the city, with Border Patrol official Greg Bovino reportedly set to leave the state.
