Dear neighbors,

Last Friday, tens of thousands came together to peacefully protest. Minnesota has been terrorized by the federal government for months, but Minnesotans have stood up, defended one another, and reminded the world why our state is so special. Until ICE stops occupying our state and our streets are safe again from the federal government, Minnesotans will continue to use their rights to peacefully protest. Our bravery in continuing to raise our voices against this unlawful action and our kindness in caring for our neighbors in these challenging times are showing the rest of the nation a way forward.

PeacefulProtest

One day after this peaceful protest, federal agents killed yet another Minnesotan in broad daylight. Alex Pretti was a neighbor, a son, an ICU nurse who cared for veterans. Alex was a good man, and GOP elected officials at all levels have started attacking his character and making ridiculous, baseless statements to somehow justify what we can all see on video. There’s no justification; Alex should be alive today. He and his family don’t deserve this.

MplsStatement

We’re in a terrifying moment in our nation’s history, where the federal administration is more concerned with spreading propaganda than reporting facts of the case. We see with our eyes and think for ourselves - and we can’t take the administration’s comments at face value anymore. They’ve lost all credibility – and people are noticing and calling that out. 

There’s work to be done. I’m continuing to provide regular community updates [ [link removed] ] with local and state elected officials in Minneapolis to keep our community informed and engaged as events unfold. In the House, DFLers are working on bills for this session to protect Minnesotans’ rights and hold these federal agents accountable - but this doesn’t meet the immediate need to get ICE out of our state. 

We’re on the ground in our communities, supporting mutual aid, food banks, and rapid response, as well as sharing the information and resources necessary to continue the fight. Every day, we’re doing our best to do our part - as should every elected official. We’re calling on our GOP colleagues to find a spine and stand up for Minnesota, even when it means breaking with what Trump wants. We’re calling on Congress to block ICE funding. We’re calling on our state to provide rental assistance for people afraid to leave their homes. 

Thank you to everyone in our community who is speaking out, protesting, donating time and money, and defending our city. I’m right there with you, and I will continue to be no matter how long this takes.
