Rep. Ilhan Omar
@repilhan.bsky.social
Representing Minnesota's 5th District in the People's House.
US Progressives Deputy Chair.
Account managed by staff.
The Pedophile Protection Party tried everything to keep the Epstein Files from coming out.

That's why we needed to pass a discharge petition to get a vote on the House Floor to get the truth out because GOP leadership refused to act.

It's time for answers and transparency.

Educators are the heart of the Fifth District, working every day to give our kids the quality education they deserve.

That's why I'm working in Congress to ensure our teachers get the fair pay and support they need, inside and out of the classroom. 💙💪🏽

Congratulations to Rep. Adelita Grijalva on her swearing in!

Proud to welcome her to Congress and even prouder that her very first act is signing on as the 218th signature to the Epstein discharge petition.

Incredible to see the northern lights shine down in Minnesota's Fifth District last night!

This Veterans Day, and every day, we honor our veterans for their service and sacrifice.

I’ll continue to fight to ensure our veterans and their families get the support they need. That starts with ensuring they get the best healthcare and benefits they deserve.

Republicans, where you at?

It’s day 17 of the government shutdown and STILL no Republicans to be found.

Leave your vacations and REOPEN the government.

From “you don’t have to vote again” to a Supreme Court ready to gut the Voting Rights Act.

The assault on voting is no coincidence. It’s part of their plan to silence millions of Americans and rig democracy from the bench.

$40 billion for Argentina.

$0 for U.S. soybean farmers, including in Minnesota, who are paying for Trump’s trade wars.

It was great to gather the Fifth’s incredible mayors for my annual CD5 Mayors’ Luncheon!

I’m so grateful to work directly with our mayors to find solutions to the pressing issues facing our communities. This is cogovernance at work! 💪🏽

Republicans control the House, Senate, and White House. The devastating impacts of this shutdown fall entirely on them.

Minnesotans made this clear at my town hall: Republicans need to end this shutdown and stop their efforts to throw millions off their healthcare coverage.

It’s amazing to be back at FAIR School Crystal to visit their new community schoolyard!

Last year, I got to see the designs the students presented for the schoolyard and it’s incredible to see their vision come to life today.

I joined Hennepin County Commissioner Angela Conley for a tour of Hennepin Healthcare’s Center for Addiction Medicine.

I was proud to secure $4.6 million in federal funding for Hennepin Healthcare. They're working everyday to ensure all Minnesotans get the quality the care they need.

Care Providers of MN is an incredible nonprofit working to help post-acute & long-term care providers serve our community.

I visited one of their facilities, Providence Place, to hear from providers about the devastating impacts the Big, Ugly Bill will have on patients and staff.

I gathered Latine leaders from across the Fifth District to recognize and celebrate the incredible work they do everyday to create a better, stronger Minnesota for our future generations. 💪🏽

From the local to federal level, we’re fighting to get Minnesotans the support they need. I joined Hennepin County Commissioner Angela Conley for a tour of Hennepin Healthcare’s Center for Addiction Medicine.

I hosted my October Town Hall in Minneapolis to share directly with Minnesotans what the GOP shutdown will mean for them.

This week, instead of voting to protect healthcare for millions, Republicans shut the government down. Democrats are holding the line - we simply cannot let Americans lose their health care. Here’s how I’ve been fighting for #MN05 (Sept 29-Oct 3):
