You, and all other Senators with a conscience, must vote to defund ICE. There is no β€œcompromise” on more training or body cams. They must be stopped. They are terrorizing and killing my neighbors in Minnesota

Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."

Yall outside of MN need to know that observers are STILL out protecting their neighbors. Right now. They know the news and they’re still out there.

There’s video of them ICE murder that just happened in Minneapolis. 5 agents wrestling a man to the ground. A shot goes off and then an agent pulls and fires multiple times into the man as he lays there. It’s so fucked. So so fucked.

Approximately 48 different Minnesotans offered me hand warmers as I marshaled today. That’s Minnesota

More from Lake Street last night where i'm told a couple ICE agents or ICE contractors were eating at an Indian grill when recognized and called for backup feeling uncomfortable. BORTAC, the Border Patrol high risk tactical unit showed up - walking around holding up canisters of tear gas in the air.

Resolution β€” A Better DFL

People have been asking if there's a resolution floating around for the abolition of ICE. I wrote up some wording that people can use to take to their caucuses and added it to the page describing how to fill out the Resolution form: www.abetterdfl.org/resolution

We're not talking enough about how much the Hennepin County Sheriff's Department run by Dawanna Witt is collaborating with ICE. Arresting at Whipple, working with ICE to arrest legal observers, failing to trespass ICE when not welcome in hospitals and schools. Shame.
