About 700 Somalis are covered by TPS. To end that status and deny these community members the basic protection they’ve been promised is—like so much of what Trump does—just cruel. It throws people and families into chaos, and is a direct attack on our community.

Trump says he’s terminating legal protections for Somali migrants in Minnesota
Minnesota has the nation’s largest Somali community. Many fled the long civil war in their east African country and were drawn to the state’s welcoming social programs.

Tonight, the Department of Homeland Security announced that on Tuesday they detained 14 of our neighbors on immigration charges. What they initially reported as a targeted criminal enforcement action was in fact an identity-based raid on people who had done nothing but show up for work that day.
November 21, 2025 at 12:31 AM
Sorting through my memories of everything that happened on Tuesday, and reflecting on how some of the first phone calls I got and first people I saw onsite were union leaders in Saint Paul. I don’t know that unions ever get the credit they deserve for showing up for ALL workers, all the time.
November 20, 2025 at 3:09 PM
It’s been almost 48 hours and we still don’t know with certainty how many people were detained on Tuesday, the grounds (if any) on which they’re being held, or what will happen next for these members of our community—all of whom have families and friends and people who love them.

This isn’t normal.

Stop whatever you're doing and read this piece by @pemalevy.bsky.social & @ariberman.bsky.social laying out how John Roberts has spent his entire adult life constructing the scaffolding for Trump's authoritarian takeover, and why he's so invested in rigging the system to continue to help Trump.
Using racial profiling in immigration sweeps. Defying Congress' power of the purse. Firing independent agency commissioners.

President Trump owes his corrupt and abusive reign to one man: John Roberts
This is all John Roberts’ fault

We welcomed @mollycoleman.bsky.social to the Transportation Advisory Board today! It’s been great serving on this regional board with so many amazing community leaders. Today we’re voting on how hundreds of millions of regional transportation spending will be allocated for the next 5 years 🚌🚲

Today, our community experienced what too many across the country have been forced to endure in recent months. Federal agents from multiple law enforcement agencies, including ICE, came into our neighborhood and have detained and arrested multiple individuals.
Immigration Resources
Though the City Attorney’s Office does not represent or provide legal guidance to residents, we have compiled a list of community partners and other resources that may help during the immigration proc...

Update as of 10:55 AM:

Federal agents have left the Territorial/Hampden location. Mayor Carter and I are on site.

We have heard reports of several individuals that have been taken by the federal government. At least one person was arrested.
November 18, 2025 at 5:06 PM
Our office is on site as the situation continues to evolve. There is a visible ICE presence, but we continue to be told this not a widespread immigration raid. We are working with community and government partners to monitor and ensure any action remains within the scope of a valid warrant.
November 18, 2025 at 4:25 PM
There have been reports of federal government activity in Ward Four this morning. As of right now, we believe the entities involved are FBI and DEA, not ICE. We’re continuing to work to get official confirmation of this, and to monitor the activity in the area closely. I’ll share more as I’m able.

Last week, our community suffered a tremendous loss when Amber Deneen was killed just trying to cross the street. I hope folks will join us at tonight’s memorial to honor Amber’s life and help us fight for safer streets.

Talk to me when Minneapolis has an entire side of the Council table that went to the same high school.
Ok, we have confirmed ELLISON and CHOWDHURY and lots of heat behind CHAVEZ. Let’s complete the set! Currently we have as many as 5 raised-in-Minneapolis Council Members on the current 13-member council and the new council.

I spent the morning at Temple of Aaron for an Elected Leaders Shabbat talking about how Jewish people have made STP home since the 1850s, and I’m spending the evening at the 50 Years of Progress Gala, celebrating the arrival of the Hmong people. I love this diverse, welcoming city of immigrants.

Today at 1:00 ET, @peoplesparity.bsky.social, @acslaw.bsky.social, @democracyforward.org, @lambdalegal.org, and many more are rallying for democracy in front of the Supreme Court.

I had the chance to talk about it with @legalafmtn.bsky.social.

Guess what, we don't have to accept a Supreme Court that allows Trump to crown himself king! We can demand court reform to protect democracy from the courts. @mollycoleman.bsky.social and I wrote about our recent report for @peoplesparity.bsky.social for @ballsandstrikes.org

Worked in legal organizing for the last few years, and I never would have thought a movement of lawyers was possible until I had the displeasure of doing this job under Trump 2.0.

Recent history has shown that attorneys and jurists can play a big role in bringing their nations back from the brink of autocracy. That day is coming for us as well.
