Who you are contacting
Your governor’s office
What you are asking for
Email or call your governor’s office and tell them, in your own words, to direct state police to enforce state criminal law against anyone who assaults, abducts, or unlawfully detains a resident, federal badge or not, and to sign an executive order requiring every armed agent in the state to show a face, a name, and legal authority.
The call to action as published on Aug. 16
The ask takes ten minutes: email or call your governor’s office and tell them, in your own words, to direct state police to enforce state criminal law against anyone who assaults, abducts, or unlawfully detains a resident, federal badge or not, and to sign an executive order requiring every armed agent in the state to show a face, a name, and legal authority. An agent acting outside the Constitution is not acting in pursuance of it. Do as many as you want:
Your governor, the office that can sign the order this week.
Your state attorney general, to commit publicly to prosecuting assault, kidnapping, and unlawful detention committed under color of a badge, as Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty already has.
Your state legislators, to write both into statute so the next governor can’t undo them.
Post the ask publicly and tag the governor, the attorney general, and your state party, so the ask and any non-answer are both public.
Your own words are what works; identical messages get counted once and filed. A form letter back is a lack of courage, and you can say so in a response to them.
