“COVID-19 has upended life as we know it...we’ll never forget the countless heroes who continue to put their lives on the line to protect us.” - @GovTimWalz
“As I said during my State of the State speech last month, we toldyou we needed time to prepare for the spread...we know there’s no stopping the storm of COVID-19 from hitting MN. But we’ve now prepared for it.” @GovTimWalz
“We’re not flipping a switch, we’re slowly moving the dial so that people can safely walk near others in public...small business are critical to the social fabric of our communities in Minnesota.” @GovTimWalz
“All gatherings, whether a backyard BBQ or church gatherings, will be limited to 10 people or less.” @GovTimWalz
“Let me be clear, no life is disposable in Minnesota...it has never been more important for you to look out for your neighbors.” - @GovTimWalz
.@GovTimWalz recognizes that small businesses are critical to the social and economic fabric of communities across Minnesota. Retail stores and main street businesses can begin to safely reopen starting May 18th in a way that protects employees and customers. Image
“I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again. No matter how daunting the challenge; no matter how dark the times; Minnesota has always risen up—by coming together.”

Thank you for leading during this pandemic as #OneMinnesota, @GovTimWalz.

BREAKING: The DFL Party just filed a campaign finance complaint against @JimForMN for illegal coordination with an independent expenditure group.

Here are the highlights ⤵️
dfl.org/press-release/…
An independent, dark money group called Minnesota for Freedom has been running ads lying about AG Ellison's record.

That dark money group is using the exact same person to buy their ads as @JimForMN.

This is *very* illegal. Campaigns cannot coordinate with dark money groups.
Since @JimForMN is just a hedge fund lawyer and has never worked in a courtroom, we'll cite the statute for him.

Here's how Minn. Statute § 10A.01, subd. 18 defines independent expenditure groups and what they're not allowed to do ⤵️

BREAKING: this weekend at the @mngop convention, @KimCrockettSOS played a video that portrayed George Soros, a Jewish man, as a puppet master who is secretly controlling Minnesota's elections.

The "Jewish puppet master" is a longstanding and deeply anti-Semitic trope.
The stereotypes @KimCrockettSOS is using to fuel her campaign are centuries old and have caused incredible harm to the Jewish community both here in the United States and across the world.

Crockett owes Minnesota's Jewish community an apology.

The @ADL has a great explanation of what the "George Soros puppet master" conspiracy theory is and why it's so harmful.

Minnesota Republicans have chosen their most extreme and dangerous candidate to lead their party in the fall. We can’t allow Scott Jensen to become governor. #mngov
dfl.org/press-release/…
Scott Jensen has promised to ban abortion, even for victims of rape and incest.
And for his running mate, he chose…this guy. Image

THREAD: We're demanding @mngop Chair @davidhann root out the dangerous political extremism that's taken over his party.

Time and time again, Minnesota Republicans have cozied up to violent extremists. It has to end. Here's just a few recent examples:
dfl.org/press-release/…
Just yesterday, an MN GOP leader embraced the Oath Keepers, a violent, right-wing militia.

Numerous members of that extremist militia have been arrested and charged for plotting and carrying out the attempted January 6th insurrection.
propublica.org/article/oath-k…
While this story is shocking, the GOP's embrace of the most extreme elements of the far-right is not w/o precedence. Just today it was revealed that State Senator @MarkkoranMN is raising money for men charged in the Jan 6 terrorist attack on the US Capitol minnesotareformer.com/briefs/gop-sta…

It is disgraceful that Representatives @JimHagedornMN, @tomemmer, @FischbachMN7, and @PeteStauber continue trying to block efforts to investigate the assault on the United States Capitol.
dfl.org/press-release/…
It is abundantly clear these Republican Representatives don’t want to know whether the January 6th insurrection was pre-planned and who was involved in that planning because they are scared of the answer.
By voting against holding Steve Bannon in contempt of Congress for refusing a subpoena, these Republican Representatives are abdicating the responsibilities of their office and trying to take the teeth out of Congress’ ability to investigate criminal behavior.
