All Minneapolis Mothers- another mother’s Black son was murdered on our streets last night in N. Mpls. (73rd), what if it was your son? If you truly care about black lives, Please VOTE ‘NO’ to ballot question #2. With no plan, now is not the time to abolish the police dept! & Chf

The democratic cities that are reversing defunding the police at the height of a violence epidemic impacting Black folks the most all have twice as many Black & Brown citizens as Mpls. Here 75% of Black folks polled say they DO NOT WANT FEWER COPS. (1 of 2)

Many more White Allies in Mpls. Say they DO WANT FEWER COPS SO THAT THEY PROTECT US, BLACK PEOPLE including the 75% who say they want the opposite of what they want for us- again, WE DO NOT WANT FEWER COPS WE JUST WANT BETTER COPS.

This is what happens when our Chief speaks in N. Mpls- where 51% of the shooting victims are shot in our city- he is embraced! We want better not fewer cops. Minneapolis Police Chief Arradondo speaks to friendly crowd about hopes for future of department strib.mn/2Ye6SS3

When our Black Chief speaks to a Black Audience, one begins to understand how 75% of Black Respondents, in the recent poll, do not want less police. m.startribune.com/minneapolis-po…

BOTH/AND- We can reform policing, increase public health supports, AND have a fully functioning police dept. with a Chief. Vote ‘NO’ to ballot ? #2. Without a plan, and a new council, now is not the time to remove the department. Here’s what happened tonight in my neighborhood.

This happens too frequently- 3 ppl shot at Winners gas station; a hit & run collision & person hit (cars don’t stop for red anymore); Lyft driver carjacked (like 14 were robbed/carjacked at gunpoint last week and guns, stabbings, shootings abound. We are losing good neighbors.

As we get closer to the final day, 11/2, of one of the most consequential elections and ballot decisions in Minneapolis ever, my prayer is that we can passionately disagree when someone has a different opinion than our own and still honor our shared humanity & interconnection.

I have never experienced & witnessed more hatefulness being spewed than on social media. I have never seen more caring white people attacking Black folks to protect Black folks. We may not like it but we are sisters and brothers with different ideas of how to move forward.

This was the message that went out to folks when Instagram went down yesterday. I know there are people who are still kind on Twitter- the better angels of our nature.

Come on now, why can't Council Member Cunningham tell us the truth? Northsiders deserve better. #VoteforVetaw #ComeOnNow #VetawWard4

Many allies care too much about us To care what we want. 75% of black folks don’t want less cops. Only 42% want a new department. Don’t vote for us. Vote with us

I deleted a tweet because it I became defensive about a remark from my opponent’s staffer about the most devastating day in our lives. Twitter isn’t the medium for that conversation & I capably showed why. I’m sorry.

Thank you Jenny Kraft for the great box of books for the little library.

Mr. Khaire’s comments are deeply unsettling, inconsistent with the values our community holds, and not reflective of the views of the Somali voters my campaign and I have spoken with. These comments represent a cynical divide-and-conquer approach to politics. Rep. Ilhan Omar
