Tuesday, January 27, 2026 - Pop star Katy Perry has joined the growing list of
celebrities speaking out against the actions of United States Immigration and
Customs Enforcement (ICE).
The 41-year-old singer took to Instagram to urge her
followers to move beyond outrage and take concrete action, following the fatal
shooting of Alex Pretti by a U.S. Border Patrol officer in Minneapolis.
In a post shared with her over 200 million followers, Katy
wrote, “Turn anger into ACTION,” alongside slides instructing Americans to call
their senators. She explained that lawmakers have until January 30 to block an
additional $10 billion in funding for ICE, on top of the $75 billion already
approved.
She also shared a call script, urging senators to filibuster
the upcoming homeland security appropriations bill, while condemning reports of
arrests, assaults, and deadly force involving ICE officers.
While comments on the post were disabled, it has already
gained massive engagement.
