MN Rep. Kaohly Vang Her isn’t undocumented. She shared a childhood immigration error caused by her father after her mother’s death. She’s a U.S. citizen now, fully eligible to serve. The right is twisting her story to spread lies. Don’t fall for it.

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE.

Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it.

Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.
