AJC Washington bureau chief Tia Mitchell examines how a deadly federal immigration enforcement shooting in Minneapolis is reverberating through Georgia politics, as Democratic senators Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock threaten to block a government funding bill unless new limits on ICE are included. She explains why a partial government shutdown appears increasingly likely and how Republican challengers are seizing on the issue in a heated election year.

The episode then features a recorded roundtable hosted by AJC reporters Maya T. Prabhu and Michelle Baruchman with state Reps. Yasmin Neal and Clint Crowe, both former police detectives. The lawmakers offer sharply different views on the Minnesota shooting, the role of ICE in Georgia, and how immigration enforcement affects public trust, while also identifying areas where bipartisan cooperation on public safety could still emerge under the Gold Dome.
