We’ve experienced firsthand this year that elections have real consequences. When we vote, when we show up for our communities, and when we caucus, we take another step toward protecting and standing with our neighbors.

The attack on Congresswoman Ilhan Omar is unacceptable. I’m grateful she is safe, and I commend her strength in the face of hate and intimidation.
I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work.
I don’t let bullies win.
Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

In Minneapolis, I caught up with my friend, AG @keithellison.bsky.social, who is leading the charge to hold ICE accountable in the courts and bring justice to Minnesotans.

We’re in court to preserve the evidence in Alex Pretti’s case, and we’re still fighting to get access to Renee Good’s files too. The feds locked state investigators out before, and we won’t let that happen again. Minnesota deserves a case we can trust, with all the facts on the table.

Ellison: "The Bondi letter reveals what this is all about. This is not about fraud and it's not even about immigration, and it's certainly not about law enforcement. It's about handing over documents of the state of Minnesota, private information, including voting information, to the federal govt."

Having to fight to preserve evidence is absurd and unheard of. But if it’s what AG @keithellison.bsky.social needs to do to pursue justice, he’ll do it every time.

Today at 9 am, I’m in federal court fighting for Minnesota and seeking a restraining order to stop ICE’s unlawful and unconstitutional occupation of our state.
No one is above the law. No Minnesotan is beneath it.

I will always fight to defend the rule of law in Minnesota.
Last night's ruling protects that investigation by barring federal agents from altering or destroying any evidence they captured involving the fatal shooting of Alex.
Justice will be done.

She has got a point! Great job @keithellison.bsky.social or whomever was responsible for this! Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏
I don’t see too many people talking about what an incredible accomplishment it was for MN officials and lawyers to get those affidavits and that motion written and filed and to get a Trump appointed judge to issue a TRO against the feds to stop them from destroying evidence - all in the same day.

Tonight, on behalf of Minnesota law enforcement, I filed a lawsuit against DHS to prevent the destruction of evidence related to the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti.
DHS is not above the law, and Alex sure as hell is not beneath it.

One day after Minnesotans came together 50K in the freezing cold to declare “Protect Our Neighbors” ICE kills again. Can there be any greater proof the Operation Metro Surge must end immediately? Like Now.
