Minnesota 50501 “Fifty-Fifty-One” is a grassroots, non-partisan 501(c)4 nonprofit organization dedicated to building connections across Minnesota. We organize for progressive change - and a strong, representative democracy built on community, equity, and justice for all. We provide a space for activists to collaborate, share resources, and mobilize for direct action across Minnesota. In addition to organizing rallies and protests to help people use their voice for change, we are active in numerous mutual aid efforts to help ensure that our neighbors have safe access to food, including local, heathy produce grown by our volunteers this summer. Proceeds from the flash tattoo event will be used to fund our mutual aid efforts in Rochester. If you would like to learn more or get involved with our organization, visit mn50501rochester.org

Hey Governor Tim Walz,

Financial fraud doesn't need to be addressed with ICE.
Financial fraud doesn't need to be addressed with battering rams.
Financial fraud doesn't need a mass coordinated action to create harm and fear in the community.

Until you bust white collar criminals and corporations the exact same way, you can f**k off with your justifications for again harming an already terrified community.
