Our students deserve better. Tell your senator to vote NO tomorrow on the inadequate Republican education bill: https://t.co/Cz0YOY1Yaa #mnleg#fundourfuture#redfored

This is unacceptable and wrong. We are better than this.
The ppl of #Minnesota voted for @IlhanMN to represent them in Washington. Agree to disagree. That civility. Anything else is simply another form of hate.
