This morning, federal immigration agents publicly executed an observer at 26th and Nicollet Ave South. Observers are out in the community because they care about our immigrant neighbors. They do this out of love and helping keep families together. 1/

The tax bill does what shuttering USAID did, except domestically. Millions of Americans will lose their healthcare. Millions of Americans will go hungry. Call you Senator and tell them to vote "No."

ICE was present at the incident on Lake & Bloomington. Our community saw it with their eyes. Federal agencies were militarized on our streets. Community members were assaulted by them and local jurisdictions were present for it. Our community deserves answers and to be heard. 1/

Mr. Abrego Garcia was illegally abducted by the Trump Admin and, by their own admission, wrongly deported to El Salvador. He shouldn’t have to spend another second away from his family.
I'm flying to El Salvador tomorrow morning to check on his condition and discuss his return.
