Minnesota Open Letters

From a verified voter in Minneapolis, MN

I am writing to express urgent concern over the Department of Justice’s arrest of journalists; Don Lemon and Georgia Fort for covering a protest in St. Paul.

Demand resignation of Miller/Bondi/Noem

I'm write to urge Congressmember Omar to demand the immediate resignation of Stephen Miller as deputy chief of staff for policy, Kristi Noem as head of DHS, and Pam Bondi as Attorney General.

Keep fighting to abolish ICE; no new funding!

I’m glad to hear that the DHS bill has been carved out from the other 5 budget bills and that the Senate is now in discussions about how to rein in ICE. I want to be clear—we want NO NEW ICE FUNDING ever. But we want more. We want Miller, Noem, and Bondi gone. We want to see ICE agents’ faces and ba

I demand you bring Liam Ramos home and take action against this administration.

What is Congress doing? How are you standing there letting this happen to our country and our people? You are letting history repeat itself while the people are in the streets demanding change and dying for it. DEFUND ICE AND GET THOSE PEOPLE OUT OF THE CONCENTRATION CAMPS IN OUR COUNTRY ESPECIAL

END THIS NOW

All of you have the power to stop this. People are dying. You need to stop ICE and border patrol from destroying our cities, draw up impeachments, and end this fascist takeover of the USA. Do you not love this country?

From a constituent in Minneapolis, MN

I just learned that the MN State Patrol used an LRAD, a literal weapon of war, against protestors. This is completely unacceptable. Protestors are not enemies of the state. Rein in the force being used by the State. We are getting attacked enough by the Federal government. Link to story: Minnesota

Please support Fourth Amendment is Not For Sale Act

Please vote yes on the Fourth Amendment is not For Sale Act (HR 4639). DHS wants to use data collected by apps for immigration enforcement, data that was originally created for marketing purposes. There are many errors in this data as detailed by people who have worked on the programs that collect t

Hold the line on defunding DHS

Continue to hold the line on defunding ICE and DHS. The removal of some agents and Greg Bovino from Minnesota is a good thing, but not enough. Before funds are released, serious reform must occur, including: removal of Kristi Noem from DHS, proof that agents are following the constitution and uphol

ICE out now!

Hi, I’m a constituent reaching out from Apple Valley, MN. I’m calling to demand that Senator Klobuchar and Senator Smith vote NO on the DHS funding bill until we’ve gotten some real concessions on ICE. They must agree to pull out of Minnesota, for starters.

I am writing to request clarification regarding several statements made in your latest newsletter. First, I strongly disagree with your continued support for opening the region near the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness to foreign‑owned mining companies. The BWCA is one of Minnesota’s most prec

From a verified voter in Princeton, MN

I have been wondering what it takes for you to show concern about killings associated with ICE activities in the state. I know that the GOP administration has been quick to label the persons killed malcontents or subversives. Kristi Noem, in particular, has been quick to condemn the victims witho

If Donald Trump’s government can execute a registered nurse in broad daylight by pumping ten bullets into him while he lies on the ground. What will stop them from murdering any of us?

Oppose ICE. Condemn murder, stand up to evil.

I'm writing to you today to ask you to oppose the DHS's unconstitutional overreaching by continuing to allow ICE to operate in our state.
