Organizers in Minnesota are putting their lives on the line for justice. It’s time for us to show up for them. Join @AyannaPressley, @AOC, @RashidaTlaib, and me. https://t.co/BzDULI4Zxs — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

Today, the president of the United States invoked the words of white supremacists not once but twice to call for violence against American citizens. Is it surprising? No. But it is shameful, and we cannot become numb to his racism. https://t.co/npxuMoyAV4 — PolitiTweet.org

It doesn’t take a prosecutor to see that what that police officer did to George Floyd was not third-degree murder — it was chilling, cold-blooded, and intentional. — PolitiTweet.org

We can’t just continue to watch our communities be brutalized by the police. I am proud of my sisters in Congress for joining me in condemning police brutality and look forward passing this resolution. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

This is a first step on the long path ahead of us towards justice. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

George Floyd was murdered in broad daylight in our city. Charges need to be brought immediately. Deep injustice begets social unrest. We can’t ask for peace without delivering justice. If the county attorney is unwilling to do that, a special prosecutor needs to be appointed. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

Why are they being arrested after clearly identifying themselves and complying? This is outrageous and not helpful. — PolitiTweet.org

These are the questions we need to ask ourselves as a society: Whose life is deemed valuable and whose isn’t? Whose rights are protected and whose rights are not? https://t.co/6BtxF1HeKV — PolitiTweet.org

We should and must protest peacefully. But let us end the cycle of violence now. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

Violence only begets violence. More force is only going to lead to more lives lost and more devastation. We must prioritize the safety of our community. We can rebuild, but we cannot bring back lives. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

Our anger is just. Our anger is warranted. And our priority right now must be protecting one another. — PolitiTweet.org

Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN

I am heartbroken. Horrified at the needless death of George Floyd, another innocent black man murdered by police in our community. Frustrated that we keep finding ourselves in this position as a city. Angry that justice still seems out of reach. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m holding the @ShirTikvahMN community in my heart today, whose synagogue was vandalized with anti-Semitic graffiti yesterday. Many learned of this while protesting the police murder of #GeorgeFloyd. We must fight anti-Semitism, racism and all forms of hate together. ❤️ — PolitiTweet.org
