@BreeMinneapolis @BullyCreative @willhailer Unlike other firms that claim to be progressive they live those values. Tim’s arrangement with the firm will not allow him to profit from the work that eStreet does for our campaign. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

@BreeMinneapolis @BullyCreative @willhailer Tim and Will take a salary in line with other staff at the firm. Both make less now than they were prior to the firm because they actually provide their employees full health care, 401k, dental, life insurance, short and long term disability. Fellows make $17.50/hr and get 401k. — PolitiTweet.org

Whether it’s housing or Indigenous rights, @peggyflanagan has fought for marginalized Minnesotans for years. Proud to have her support and to continue the fight together! — PolitiTweet.org

@BullyCreative And I appreciate that. Thank you. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

@BreeMinneapolis @BullyCreative @willhailer Bree, I hear you, but I can tell you that is not the case here no matter how much it’s insinuated. The firm is also not “run” by him, he is a partner. I pay for work that this firm does with multiple employees who do that work. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

@BullyCreative I meant campaigns, since this conversation is solely about that. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

@BullyCreative I think that has been the goal, for those that have made this an issue know my burn rate is low and we have been effective in raising money. People have even accuse Keith for setting it up, even though Will and I have been friends for years. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

@BreeMinneapolis @BullyCreative No, why hire a new firm for a job our current firm does and does it well. They know our district and how to be effective. Our ad placements, aren’t all over the place like others have been and that’s because @willhailer is brilliant and effective. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

@BullyCreative I disagree, folks who are donating and supporting others starting recruiting the day I won my last primary. Many have their spouses working for them directly, I don’t. What I pay the firm, pays for the work that gets done by multiple staff at any given moment. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

@BullyCreative Thank you for the support. Now to your question, they do the ad buys as our consulting firm for us. Tim + Will used to work for Keith, and they became partners in this firm right after he ran for AG. Fortunately, I knew Will and hired them right away. It was easy and convenient. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

We are motivated by radical love of country. We fight for universal healthcare because of love. We fight for a livable planet because of love. We fight for equitable housing because of love. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

Working everyday to address this pandemic, police violence, and economic disparities is how we show our love for our country and everyone living in it. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

Refusing to put together a national response to a pandemic that has killed 150k people is not loving our country. Prioritizing profits over people is not loving our country. Refusing to unite our country is not loving our country. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

@ErinMayeQuade @done_enough This is also a case of not recognizing each other’s humanity and dignity. Yes, as members of Congress we have a duty to vote, but as humans we also have unforeseen illnesses, deaths and health crisises. Treating people w/compassion is really missing in our society. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

@ErinMayeQuade @done_enough I also lost a family member to cancel and that was a hard choice to make as well. Workers are forced to choose everyday on matters of health, funerals and unrecognized holidays and their jobs/paychecks. This is why I fight for paid sick/safe time and offer it to my staff. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

@fiveburger @The_Birchman We have. I also lost a family member to cancel and that was a hard choice to make as well.

So proud to have the support of @Tim_Walz! I look forward to our continued partnership in addressing deep disparities in our state and fighting for a more progressive Minnesota. — PolitiTweet.org

Today is Eid, Congress is yet again in session. For me and the few other Muslims, it means we miss celebrating it with our families. My time in Congress so far has been making this difficult choice, between votes and family. Isra, Adnan and Ilwad, I am sorry. Eid Mubarak. https://t.co/SsBjNpgxHu — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

Eid Mubarak! ❤️ Wishing everyone peace, safety, and prosperity this #EidAlAdha. We need it now more than ever. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

Thousands of Minnesotans are losing their expanded unemployment benefits — $600 more a week they’re counting on to keep a roof over their head and food on the table. The House has already moved to extend the extra benefits. The Senate must act before the August rent is due. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

Healthcare is a human right. Not "access" to care. Not "affordable" care. Just care, period. We need Medicare For All to provide comprehensive care to every person in this country, regardless of income, at no cost at the point of service. Anything less isn't enough. https://t.co/ltcUJUvvYx — PolitiTweet.org

No child in America should face the hunger I experienced as a young refugee. I just helped introduce a bill to guarantee #SchoolMeals4All during this pandemic so we’re one step closer to eliminating child hunger for good. — PolitiTweet.org

War is not a game. Video games should not be recruitment tools for the military. And it’s particularly concerning that users were blocked from platforms by the US military for asking about war crimes, raising serious first amendment concerns. I am proud to work with @AOC on this. — PolitiTweet.org
