🚨 Trump is investigating Ilhan.

This is a major escalation. Help us fight back. Friend — This is a major escalation. Trump has been going after Ilhan for weeks, calling her “garbage”, insulting her religion, and spreading dangerous and racist conspiracy theories. But now, Trump’s “Border Czar”, Tom Homan, has confirmed t…

Tomorrow ⏰

Friend, last night Trump gave a big speech from the White House. In the little time he had to address the nation, he attacked my home of Minnesota and again went after Somali-Americans. It’s a distraction. Tomorrow, the Epstein files will begin to be released after Congress voted to finally…

Republicans have a White Nationalist problem

These are the people driving policy at a national level right now Friend — This is the Republican party. When one of their Senators says “Islam is not a religion”, nobody steps up to disavow them. Nobody steps up to disagree with his calls to deport all Muslims from the US, even the millio…

I’m unfazed

We have a historic responsibility to organize against this corrupt presidency Friend — I told the Washington Post exactly what I told you. I will not back down to Trump, no matter what he throws my way. Because as racist and unbecoming his attacks on me are, they pale in comparison to the …

My mom.

Friend: The auto factories of Detroit built more than cars, they built futures for families like mine. My mother worked in the auto industry for years. Like so many Detroiters, she played her part to help put the world on wheels. Her work wasn’t just a job. It was dignity, stability…

Sign On: Expel Randy Fine from Congress

Far-right GOP Congressman Randy Fine really said this No, this isn’t a “hot mic” moment. This isn’t a mistake, or a misunderstanding of words. Far-right GOP Congressman Randy Fine really said this. And he was so proud of it that he tweeted it out, too. Randy Fine is a disgusting, violent r…

Send AIPAC packing

Friend, let’s talk about the elephant in the room: AIPAC. Since Ilhan first ran for Congress, putting forward principles of universal human rights and dignity for all, AIPAC has been one of her biggest opponents. That’s because Ilhan stands against their far-right views on Israel and Palest…

ICE is terrorizing Minneapolis

Over the last week we have seen ICE ramp up its racial profiling and violent attacks on Minneapolis residents. Friend — A 20 year-old US citizen and constituent of mine in Minneapolis was dragged out of a restaurant, put in a chokehold, arrested, and detained for hours before being release…

I know exactly what this feels like.

Ilhan and I will always be targets for the GOP When I saw Trump’s latest attacks on Ilhan and the Somali-American community, my heart dropped — not just because of how hateful and dangerous they were, but because I know this playbook far too well. For months now, one of Trump’s closest alli…

Is Elon playing dumb?

Republicans like Elon and Trump really hate democracy Friend, Elon Musk is from South Africa but lives in Texas, which is really far from South Africa. That’s never stopped him from receiving billions in government subsidies, spending millions to influence our elections, and joining the Tr…

Let’s make this official

Friend, When Summer Lee announced her re-election campaign, the energy, the power, and the PEOPLE showed up so powerfully that the Super PACs trying to take Summer out are already scrambling. And now we have the chance to turn that momentum into something even more powerful: FOUNDING MEMBER…

“With her little turban”

Trump’s attacks have consequences

These are the real-world results of reckless rhetoric Friend, Trump’s constant attacks on Somali-Americans have consequences. His lies, his conspiracies, and especially his threats of violent immigration crackdowns have sown fear and pain for no reason other than to scapegoat a vulnerable c…

Thank you.

This was a tough week. Friend, Ilhan here. I want to say thank you. This was a tough week. Trump and the extremist far-right decided to go all-in on racism, hatred, and cruelty. They have singled out Somali-Americans, called my friends and me “garbage”, targeted us with ICE, and rallied the…

“Ilhan Omar is garbage”

Trump just can’t stop attacking Ilhan. Friend — Trump just can’t stop attacking Ilhan. We explained to you how these racist attacks from Trump led to ongoing harassment and constant threats to Ilhan’s life, requiring us to hire our own security. We told you how Trump’s rhetoric is putting …

Our community is under attack

Hey Friend, it's Ilhan Omar. Something I’m really proud of is that, in addition to being one of the first Muslim women in Congress, I’m also the first Somali-American to serve in Congress. Over the last few decades, Somali refugees and immigrants have come to America to find safety and economi…

2018

The night we won our first race for Congress. August 14th, 2018. That was the night we won our first primary race for Congress. Just a few years before that moment, nobody would have guessed that a Muslim, refugee, woman of color could win a seat on the national stage. But we shattered all o…
