Ilhan Omar for Re-Election to Congress in MN-05
Our Revolution is proud to endorse Ilhan Omar for re-election to Congress in Minnesota’s 5th District.
From the moment she entered Congress, Ilhan has been one of the clearest and most courageous voices fighting for working people, immigrants, peace, racial justice, and democracy — even as she’s faced relentless attacks from the far right, corporate interests, and the political establishment.
At a time when too many politicians stay silent in the face of authoritarianism and corporate power, Ilhan Omar continues to stand up and fight.
According to her campaign, Ilhan is running to continue building a future rooted in:
- Economic justice
- Universal healthcare
- Housing affordability
- Climate action
- Immigrant rights
- Democracy reform
- End endless war
Her campaign emphasizes that government should work for ordinary people — not billionaires, corporations, or political insiders.
And that’s exactly why powerful forces continue targeting her.
Ilhan has long been one of Donald Trump’s favorite political targets. In recent months, Trump escalated his attacks even further — suggesting she should be jailed or deported and amplifying false conspiracy theories targeting both her and Minnesota’s Somali community.
Despite the threats and intimidation, Ilhan has remained outspoken against ICE and MAGA extremism. She will always stand strong for immigrant communities and progressive values.
Right now, she faces multiple challengers in both the Democratic primary and general election, while outside groups and right-wing media continue pouring attention and attacks into the race.
At a moment when authoritarian politics, billionaire influence, and anti-immigrant attacks are intensifying across the country, we need leaders who won’t back down under pressure.
Ilhan Omar has shown that courage time and time again.
That’s why Our Revolution is proud to stand with her once more.
When we organize, we win. ✊
