Friend — Ilhan was attacked at a town hall in Minneapolis tonight.
We hosted a town hall to discuss ICE’s ongoing, violent occupation of our city. As Ilhan was giving her remarks, a man rushed up to her and squirted her with an unknown substance from a syringe. Thankfully, our security team apprehended him immediately.
Friend, Ilhan’s okay. This small agitator isn’t going to intimidate her from doing her work. We don’t let bullies win.
But this proves something important. For months now, Trump has personally attacked Ilhan and sent his MAGA followers after her. Just minutes before this attack, Trump was at a rally in Iowa, insulting Ilhan and talking about killing Somali people.
This is why we’ve reached out to you before about helping us afford a personal security team. Tonight, that very team helped avoid a much worse situation.
No one, from the President of the United States to a random attacker, is going to stop Ilhan Omar from speaking out about what is happening in our city and state right now.
This administration is tearing the Constitution apart and killing people in the streets. We will not back down as we fight to defund and abolish ICE, impeach Kristi Noem, and seek justice for Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
In the meantime, if you want to help Ilhan continue to afford her security team as the threats remain, use this link or the button below to chip in.
In solidarity,
Team Ilhan
