A memorial on a black background with a photo of former Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman, who was targeted in a political assassination. The text reads, "In Memory of Melissa Hortman, Former Minnesota House Speaker, 1970-2025. Taken far too soon in a targeted attack. A voice for justice, clean energy, and equality. We honor her legacy, leadership, and courage. #RestInPower."

Mourning, today, for a victim of a political assassination.
