Statement from the Philippine Nurses Association of America on the Death of Nurse Alex Jeffrey Pretti

On January 24, 2026, Alex Jeffrey Pretti, a critical care nurse at the Minneapolis Veterans Affairs (VA) Health Care System, was shot and killed during an encounter with agents from the Department of Homeland Security in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The circumstances surrounding this incident remain under investigation, and significant questions continue to be raised about the sequence of events and the use of force.

Alex devoted his life to caring for others — veterans, patients, and communities in need. His untimely death is a solemn occasion that deeply affects the nursing community, healthcare workers, and all who value public service and human dignity.

PNAA stands in solidarity with the American Nurses Association (ANA), the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses (AACN), and nursing and healthcare organizations across the nation in expressing our deepest condolences to Alex’s family, loved ones, colleagues, and all whose lives he touched. Like our fellow associations, we echo their calls for a complete, transparent, and independent investigation, and we urge that the findings be made available promptly and fully to the public and to Alex’s family.

The loss of a nurse in any context — particularly under circumstances involving violence — is distressing, unacceptable, and a reminder of the urgent need to protect the safety and well-being of nurses everywhere. As an organization rooted in the values of compassion, service, leadership, and community, PNAA reaffirms its mission to:

* Advocate for the safety, dignity, and respect of nurses in all settings;

* Promote equitable health and social policies that support the well-being of patients, communities, and those who serve them;

* Uphold the highest standards of professional practice, integrity, and humanity;

* Stand in unity with nursing organizations nationwide to amplify a voice for meaningful change and safety.

In this moment of collective grief, we also recognize the emotional toll events like this can take on nurses, healthcare professionals, and our communities. We encourage nurses and care teams to support one another, lean into their networks, and seek peer or professional support as needed. Our personal well-being is essential to our continued ability to serve and to care for others with excellence and heart.

PNAA honors the life and service of Alex Jeffrey Pretti. We recommit ourselves to advocating for a just and humane society in which safety, dignity, and well-being are the norm — not the exception.
