Ilhan Omar

Best way to fight back? Vote. Minnesota: You can vote now or cast your ballot by November 3.

The pedophile protection party’s president is laundering right-wing conspiracy theories through the most corrupt DOJ in American history. Whenever the news turns bad, this creep reaches for one name: mine. So let’s make it crystal clear. My name has always been Ilhan Omar.

Maybe you should focus on what your VP’s real name is.

Less scrolling, more strolling. Enjoying our beautiful Minnesota lakes. 🥰

Trump’s goal is to intimidate me and get me to back down. That’s not going to happen. I will not be silenced, and I will not stop fighting for my constituents.

Thanks for always having my back ❤️ see you on the campaign trail.

Thank you to everyone who stood with me over the years. It’s been a scary journey but I have always been grounded in my work and ability to provide exemplary service to my constituents. Trump and his administration have been after me since I arrived in Congress.

NEW: Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) responds to Trump's plan to try to strip her of her U.S. citizenship and deport her: "No basis in the law and has no precedent,” says Omar's spokesperson. "An authoritarian move to silence an opponent right before an election." www.huffpost.com/entry/live-u...

💅🏽

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

Trump’s obsession with demonizing the Somali community is dangerous and reprehensible. Hate to break it to him: Somali Minnesotans are resilient. We will not let Trump intimidate us. Our neighbors have our back.

Trump tries to start a race war: "The once Great State of Minnesota is being taken over by Somali Immigrants ... The Somalians should not be allowed to get away with what they are doing. They view you as weak and stupid people. Fight back Minnesota, fight back!"

Full blown fascism. We have the Fourth and Fifth Amendments for a reason: to stop government agents like ICE from becoming the president’s secret police. Where's the outrage from “constitutional conservatives”?

ProPublica@propublica.org

NEW: The Trump administration keeps denying and downplaying that immigration agents have been detaining Americans. It’s wrong. We’ve found more than 500 U.S. citizens have been held against their will, including handcuffed or held at gunpoint.

Two-thirds of Americans support Medicare for All. Americans are done with a healthcare system that puts profits before people. Medicare for All can save 114,000 lives and $1 trillion a year—turns out, progressive policies can be good politics AND good policy.

The president should never joke about American cities getting bombed. Don’t normalize his constant pathetic, insane, and completely unhinged behavior.

Deal with it. 🕶️

I’m a proud Minneapolis Public Schools alum and parent. After talking with MPS families, I’m deeply concerned about the district’s current plan to close 14 or more schools.

This is a major decision that will affect kids, families, and educators across our city. MPS should slow down, hear from more families and educators, and delay the vote so we can get this right.

Like so many women, I’ve experienced a miscarriage. Years ago, when my doctor couldn’t find a heartbeat, I was given medication to help me through it. I was grateful to have access to the care I needed during an incredibly difficult time.

💔 Rep. Ilhan Omar shares her story about have a miscarriage

That’s why protecting access to mifepristone and medication abortion matters. These medications are an essential part of medical care, including during miscarriage. No woman should have to navigate an experience like this without the care and choices she needs.

Africa’s future is our future. Honored to have hosted the CBC ALC Africa Braintrust panel to discuss innovation on the continent. As the only African-born member of Congress, I’m proud to work to ensure Africa's future is inclusive and built for the people.

It is barbaric that Americans owe $220 BILLION in medical debt. In the richest country on Earth, healthcare should be a right—not a debt sentence. We must *finally* eliminate medical debt and deliver Medicare for All.

A year ago today, we lost two beautiful children at Annunciation School in Minneapolis—Fletcher Merkel and Harper Moyski.

27 Aug

One powerful way to honor and remember them is to show up for others and move your feet. Through service and generosity, we can carry forward the love, courage, and care that have sustained the Annunciation community this past year.

27 Aug

But remembrance must be coupled with action. Every child deserves to feel safe and protected in all spaces. It is up to all of us to ensure this never happens again.

Special interests think they can buy this Senate seat. They've spent $20 million to do it. But I have seen what Minnesotans can do when we organize together. So when it comes down to the many or the money, I'm betting on us.
