Thank you, Mill City Times! “Samuels Over Omar for Congress” “Samuels’ outcomes-orientated, pragmatic approach to politics is sorely needed in today’s polarized and combative political environment. Minnesota has long served as a haven for this leadership style, and a Samuels’ victory would be a welcome return to a more productive brand of politics.” millcitytimes.com/news/samuels-o…

I'm proud to be endorsed by three previous DFL (Democratic party in MN) state party chairs: Mike Hatch, Brian Melendez, and Todd Otis. The primary election is tomorrow, get out and vote MN-CD5!

Another satisfied constituent....oh wait, no, a celebrity who doesn't live here nor is from here. Also, unfortunately, Rep. Omar voted against President Biden's Bipartisan Infrastructure Act, which has created over 38,300 good-paying union jobs and made a historic investment in combatting climate change.

My opponent, Rep. Ilhan Omar, has failed to stand with Ukraine since Putin's invasion. She voted: ❌ Ending Importation of Russian Oil Act ❌Asset Seizure for Ukraine Reconstruction Act ❌National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2023 I will stand with Ukraine. I will stand with Ukraine. CD5, vote today in the Democratic primary!

In September of 2022, Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old woman from Iran's oppressed Kurdish minority, was stopped and arrested by Iran's 'morality' police, who routinely detain women who do not comply with their abusive and discriminatory religious laws. She was pushed into a police van and beaten and tortured by the morality police. She fell into a coma and died three days later. Congress passed a bill in her honor, to hold Iran's leaders accountable for their repression of women and continued disregard for basic human rights. The bill (The MAHSA Act) passed the house on a vote of: ✅410 - Yes ❌3 - No ❌ - Rep. Ilhan Omar Unlike my opponent, Rep. Ilhan Omar, I would have voted yes on this bill, and I will always fight for universal human rights. amnesty.org/en/latest/news… clerk.house.gov/Votes/2023384
