Defending constitutional rights and community prosperity

In the aftermath of the federal government’s politically motivated attack on our state, we need to enact strong protections for our immigrant and refugee communities and establish safeguards to protect the human rights of all Minnesotans. We are seeing increased use of AI in domestic surveillance and a lack of accountability for infringing on our constitutional rights.

• Empower Minnesotans whose constitutional rights are violated by federal agents to sue the federal government for remedy

• Prohibit use of facial recognition and increasingly AI-based domestic surveillance tools to collect data from public and private sources by government entities

• No one should have to fear going to the hospital to seek medical care, commuting to and from work, attending their houses of worship, voting at their polling locations, or going to school. These places are supposed to be safe environments for everyone and must be protected as sensitive locations.

• Support developing proactive policies to ensure continued economic security, ongoing access to healthcare, and housing stability for affected communities in the event of future Metro Surge operations

• Continue to actively work to protect the human rights of our LGBTQ+ community members, especially our trans community members, and strongly oppose efforts to deprive us of equal rights

• Pass an inclusive Equal Rights Amendment to the MN State Constitution
