Rep. Ilhan Omar@Ilhan·
This appears to be an execution by immigration enforcement. I am absolutely heartbroken, horrified, and appalled that federal agents murdered another member of our community. It is beyond shameful these federal agents are targeting our residents instead of protecting them. This isn’t isolated or accidental. The Trump administration is trying to beat us into submission rather than protect us. This administration cannot continue violating constitutional rights under the guise of immigration enforcement. ICE and CBP must leave Minnesota immediately. Their presence is terrorizing our communities, violating rights, and taking lives with zero accountability. Minnesota was once a place of refuge, and Trump has turned it into a war zone where unchecked federal forces murder our neighbors.

New video shows ICE agents in Minneapolis wrestling a man to the ground, then shooting him multiple times.

The issue was never simply a bill. Black political representation is not a side issue. The issue is whether institutions that benefit from Black talent, Black labor, and Black communities are willing to speak when Black political power is under attack. Let this be a reminder that silence in moments of injustice carries consequences.

I'm relieved to see the Minnesota legislature reach a deal to save Hennepin County Medical Center. HCMC is our state's safety net hospital. I'm glad to know its doors will remain open for thousands of Minnesotans who rely on it to get the critical care they need.
Rep. Ilhan Omar@Ilhan

Hennepin County Medical Center is a lifeline—I know, three of my kids were born there. Republicans’ Medicaid cuts are pushing hospitals like HCMC to the brink. This is about whether people get care in a crisis. Minnesota cannot lose its safety net hospital.

I was proud to secure $1.6 million in federal funding to revitalize Sochacki Park! This money will be used to improve Sochacki Park's water systems, allowing better access to cleaner water, and make the park more accessible to all Minnesotans. #DeliveringForTheFifth

For a decade, Rep. Koegel has worked tirelessly to improve the lives of everyday Minnesotans. It was an honor to serve with Rep. Koegel in the Minnesota State Legislature, and I look forward to seeing the positive impacts of her work for years to come! #MinnesotaMinute

The Nakba never ended. The genocide of Palestinians continues as the Israeli military escalates violence in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon. I'm joining @RepRashida in co-sponsoring a resolution to recognize the 78th anniversary of the Nakba and Palestinian refugees’ rights.
Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib@RepRashida

The Nakba never ended. The Israeli apartheid regime is still committing genocide in Gaza and violently erasing entire communities across Palestine and Lebanon. I'm leading a resolution to recognize the 78th anniversary of Nakba and reaffirm Palestinian refugees' right of return.

When you create policies that make education unreachable for Americans who want it, you are failing at your job. Linda McMahon is failing.

In the richest country in the history of the world, it is simply outrageous that 1 in 5 children will go hungry this year. It’s time to end child hunger and make school meals free and universal.

No child should have to sit in a classroom hungry or worried about where their next meal will come from. Excited to introduce the Universal School Meals Program Act with @SenSanders to feed kids with free breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks to students year-round.

In a moment that is testing me, I’m lucky to have these women standing with me in the fight for accountability from this administration.  I spoke with @MarieClaire about why I’m not backing down—and how it’s easier to stand up with my fellow congresswomen by my side.

I sat down with leaders and advocates from Clare Housing and Sage to ensure we’re doing everything we can to push back against Trump’s cuts to HIV prevention, care, and treatment services. We’ll keep fighting for a world where everyone can get the care and support they need.

Started my day off with some amazing students at Lucy Craft Laney Elementary School in North Minneapolis. We had an interactive reading of "Jayden's Impossible Garden." Always incredible to meet with the Fifth District's brilliant students!
