It’s been 30 years since I arrived in America. As a 12 year old refugee, I could have never imagined I would have the opportunity to represent the community that welcomed me with open arms 🥰. I'll be forever grateful for the American people who gave me and my family a second chance at life.

There's been a lot of talk on my finances. Here's the deal: My salary is $174,000 before taxes, I don’t own a home and I'm still paying off my student loan debt. I don't own or trade any stocks or accept corporate pac money. Our campaign is funded by the people for the people. I don’t work for corporations or special interests. I work for YOU.

First week of October in the books and it was an amazing one 🥰 We have one month left until Election Day and early vote has already begun in Minnesota. Check your registration at Iwillvote.com 🗳️

Thank you @Bill Nye for standing with us and fighting for bold climate action now to save our planet! We must vote for leaders that want a better, cleaner future. ✌️🌎

Ice, ice, baby ❄️

I ran for Congress because I saw communities like mine getting left behind. I came here to pass Medicare for All, cancel student debt, and build a just foreign policy. Together, we can accomplish that and more. 💪🏽

There’s no better place to close out the summer than the Minnesota State Fair! I stopped by some of my favorite booths like the MN AFL-CIO, Farmers Union, and of course the DFL booth. I even tried the deep fried ranch 😜. 10/10!

Happy Election Day CD5! Polls are open until 8pm. Find your polling place here: pollfinder.sos.state.mn.us #ilhanomar #ilhan

Sorry @isra couldn’t resist 😜

We have 26 days until our primary election on August 13. Honored to be joined by Tennessee State Rep. Justin Jones to knock on doors to get the word out. From ending the gun violence epidemic, passing Medicare for All, and combating the climate crisis—we’re fighting to deliver real progress for our communities. ✊🏽 #ilhanomar #justinjones #justinjonesfortennessee #minnesota

More than 1 in 3 women across our country live in a state where reproductive rights are under assault—many with no exceptions for rape or incest. We need leaders who will fight for reproductive freedom. I will ALWAYS have your back. #ilhanomar #reproductiverights #minnesota

Minnesota might be cold. But those who call this place home, you are warm, caring, resilient, and proud. And you are who I fight for every day. I am glad to be in the ring to fight for our values. Join me in the fight for progress: ilhanomar.com

Yes, Trump, “I am a hater” of yours. You traffic in hate, have 91 felony charges, and have a history of sexually assaulting women. Miss me with your faux outrage, while I keep delivering for my district. #ilhanomar

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz: “I’m surrounded by states who are spending their time figuring out how to ban Charlotte's Web in their schools while we're banishing hunger from ours with free breakfast and lunch." Proud to represent a state that passed universal school meals! Time to pass my bill to do the same at the federal level.

I stopped by All Square – a nonprofit restaurant in Minneapolis that provides job opportunities for justice-impacted individuals in Minnesota and helped serve some food! Always love serving customers and seeing the surprise on their faces as part of our “Ilhan on the Hi-Job” series.

🚨 🚨 🚨 Matt Gaetz just filed a motion to oust McCarthy as Speaker. Vote could come any day. I do not plan to bail out Kevin McCarthy. Kevin McCarthy is a Speaker who has made it his mission to target women’s ability to make decisions about their bodies, who has made it his mission to cover up a criminal conspiracy from Donald Trump, and is himself a threat to our democracy. He literally voted to overturn the 2020 election results, overthrow the duly elected President, and did nothing to discourage his Members from doing the same. He represents one of the state’s most affected by climate change, but actively fights any efforts to address the climate crisis. Kevin McCarthy is a weak Speaker, who has routinely put his self-interest over his constituents, the American people, and the Constitution. #politics #congress #mccarthy #trump #biden #squad #ilhanomar #2024 #republican #democrat #government
