Many people have been unable to work for over a month due to fear of ICE abducting them. Hey @governorwalz.mn.gov, I think it's time for another eviction moratorium during this current crisis.

Some good ideas on what policies the state government can do in response to the federal invasion 1) reinstate the eviction moratorium that was in place during COVID. 2) change the law so that absences from school due to fear or deportation do NOT count towards truancy totals for students

Former St. Paul police officer critiquing ICE: "How much of this ICE behavior is incompetence and how much is a result of the impunity granted to the agency by the current administration? It is likely a mix." www.minnpost.com/community-vo...

It sounds weird when you put it that way. But 100% true.

All this week, my kids elementary school is not allowing the kids out for recess. They tell the kids its because it's "too icy" outside. How true! Gallows humor, people. SPPS Teachers are the best people I know.

I do NOT support the St. Paul city council's refusal to fast-track strengthening our city separation ordinance, which delineates how the city can or can not cooperate with the federal government. The 3 council members who voted against this need to see the urgency! www.twincities.com/2026/01/15/s...

It's disgraceful. Minnesotans will remember who stepped up and who kowtowed. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

ICE detaining American Indians as illegal immigrants is the height of irony. I would be laughing if I wasn't crying. www.startribune.com/ice-detainin...

In the wake of ICE atrocities in Minnesota, this is a call to reject fear, choose moral action, and build the kind of community that makes resistance possible. #ICEoutofMN

I am so saddened and angry at the horror and chaos unleased yesterday in Minneapolis, ultimately due to the presidential administration enacting revenge on their political opponents and trying to look effective to their political base. This ICE operation is illegal and immoral. #ICEoutofMN
