My statement on Minneapolis Public Schools’ proposed “school transformation” plan.
Text above a signature reading: “STATEMENT FROM SENATOR OMAR FATEH ON MINNEAPOLIS PUBLIC SCHOOLS' PROPOSED
"SCHOOL TRANSFORMATION" PLAN:

"This decision is too big and affects too many families across the city to be made quickly.

This plan puts two schools in my district on the chopping block: Heritage Academy and Field Elementary, which has been open for more than a century.

The district has not made the case for these closures. Initial cost savings they have floated are insignificant to their financial picture, and no full analysis has been conducted of fallout effects.

This kind of major disruption deserves proper engagement from parents, educators and administrators, neighborhood and city leaders, and the current timeline doesn't allow for that.
The board should delay this vote and let those voices be heard.””

Our communities deserve to live with dignity, not fear. After Trump’s agents killed our neighbors & terrorized our communities, we’re pushing to allow the American public to sue ICE agents I’ll reintroduce the North STAR Act next session. Let’s win a DFL trifecta & get it done.
Text reading “CBS NEWS
Minnesota state Sen. Fateh joins national lawmakers in push to let Americans sue ICE agents”, a picture of ICE agents, more text reading “By Stephen Swanson | July 29, 2026
Lawmakers from across the U.S., including Democratic Minnesota state Sen. Omar Fateh, gathered in Chicago Wednesday morning to push for the public's ability to sue federal immigration officers.
The event centered on the unveiling of "a new, nationwide initiative to introduce or reintroduce legislation allowing Americans to sue ICE agents for constitutional violations," according to the State Innovation Exchange, which hosted the news conference.
Fateh was joined by three other state senators:
Colorado's Mike Weissman, Illinois' Graciela Guzman, and Utah's Luz Escamilla.”"The killings of Renée Good and Alex Pretti in Minnesota, Lorenzo Salgado Arauj in Texas, and Joan Sebastian Durán Guerrero in Maine at the hands of ICE agents show the urgent need for accountability against an armed and well-funded force that has been terrorizing communities in total impunity," said a State Innovation Exchange spokesperson in a press release.
"To date, no federal immigration agent has ever been convicted of criminal wrongdoing nor held personally liable while on duty."
Fateh, who represents the south Minneapolis district where Good and Pretti were killed in January, co-authored a bill this past legislative session that sought to allow Minnesotans to sue for compensation for civil rights violations at the hands of federal agents.
The bill failed. Legislatures in Connecticut, Illinois, Maryland and Vermont have successfully passed similar laws.Text reading “"On May 11th, that package passed the Senate, 34 to 33, meaning not one single Republican voted for it," Fateh said. "And in our tied House, the Republican leadership spent the session pretending the bill did not exist, that [Operation Metro Surge] had not happened, and saying that even if it did happen, Minnesotans had it coming."
Fateh said in Wednesday's conference the bill would've also banned federal immigration officers from wearing masks, barred them from detaining people in places like courthouses, daycares, hospitals and schools.
"Next year, when we come back into session with the new legislature, we will renew the fight to defend rights, restore local control and hold agents and their bosses accountable for what happened in the state of Minnesota, so that that can never be allowed to happen anywhere ever again,"
Fateh said.”The Hennepin County Attorney's Office has filed criminal complaints against federal immigration officers accused of committing crimes during the ICE surge earlier this year.
In late May, the office charged ICE agent Christian Castro with multiple counts of second-degree assault and a count of falsely reporting a crime following the shooting of Venezuelan national Julio Sosa-Celis on Jan. 14 in north Minneapolis.
In April, the office also charged ICE agent Gregory Morgan Jr. with assault in connection to an incident in early February where he allegedly pointed a gun at two people on a Twin Cities highway.
No charges have been filed yet against ICE agent Jonathan Ross in Good's Jan. 7 shooting death, and against the still-unidentified Border Patrol agents who killed Pretti on Jan. 24.
Earlier this month, federal investigators began sharing evidence in these cases with Hennepin County and state prosecutors after a months-long lack of cooperation.

Representing District 62 in the Minnesota Senate
STATEMENT FROM SENATOR OMAR FATEH ON THE RECENT STRING OF SHOOTINGS IN SOUTH MINNEAPOLIS
MINNEAPOLIS, MN - "I am heartbroken for our community by this recent string of gun violence. This neighborhood in my district has suffered due to a lack of public attention and investment, leading to conditions of poverty and despair that create cycles of violence.
We must address this tragic issue with every tool available, including strong gun violence prevention, effective public safety measures and economic development.
The city and state should recognize this need with urgency before more Minnesotans are lost to preventable violence."

My statement responding to the repeated racist and Islamophobic attacks by All of Minneapolis (AOM)
Text reading “FATEH
for MINNESOTA SENATE
STATEMENT: SENATOR OMAR FATEH RESPONDS TO RACIST & ISLAMOPHOBIC ATTACKS BY ALL OF MINNEAPOLIS (AOM)
MINNEAPOLIS, MN - "Today, we all saw yet another instance of a racist and xenophobic dog whistle from Karin Birkeland and the All of Minneapolis PAC - red-baiting and directly attacking my public service to the people of Minnesota as a State Senator.
The statements made in All of Minneapolis' email from this morning are absolutely disgusting. It is this exact kind of harmful rhetoric that is driving the hatred and divisiveness in our politics.
This is the latest example of a repeated pattern of discrediting and dehumanizing our elected leaders of color. Leaders like myself face countless death threats, racist comments, and violent messages daily - but this is a new low. All of Minneapolis continues to go back to their same old disgusting dirty tactics, spreading blatant lies and fear-mongering.
After the year we have been through with Operation Metro Surge, Minnesotans are sick of this politics of fear and division- point blank period.
DFL Party Leadership cannot continue to stay silent on the blatant harm and lies spread by All of Minneapolis. I am disheartened by the culture of enabling this kind of racism, xenophobia, and red-baiting by individuals in positions of power like Chair Richard Carlblom, who has yet to release any statement condemning this type of behavior. It is a complete and utter failure and sadly has been what I have come to expect from the politics of the DFL and its State Chair.
I represent the district with the most unmet needs and have fought tooth and nail every day to improve the lives of my neighbors and fellow Minnesotans. This is what the Southside is all about, and that's the leadership we deserve.
Now, more than ever, we need leaders who will not fold. We will not back down.
Solidarity, comrades."
