Ilhan welcomes challengers in her congressional race as part of a healthy democracy, team.
But a GOP challenger’s recent tactics weren’t politics as usual. After tweeting out a baseless conspiracy theory, she said Ilhan should be “tried for treason and hanged.”
As Ilhan pushes for progressive reforms like Homes for All and a Green New Deal in Congress, extremists like her GOP opponent will continue to invoke violence. Will you rush $10 or more to stand up to the hate Ilhan came to Congress to stop?

This GOP challenger’s violent words show just how far the Republican Party has fallen. The GOP has made it clear that their issue with Ilhan isn’t her progressive policy platform -- it’s her very existence as a Somali-American refugee.
While Twitter suspended the Republican candidate’s account, they still allow racist tweets from Donald Trump and other GOP elected officials without consequence. Ilhan is up against online vitriol 24/7. Vitriol that often includes threats against her life.
Ilhan came to Congress to send hate-filled policies and rhetoric to the dustbin of history where they belong. Please rush $10 or more to support her fight.
Thank you for standing with Ilhan and our for-the-people agenda when it matters most. Together, we’re going to stamp out hate and create a brighter future for all.
Team Ilhan
