Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis both reaffirmed their support for refugee resettlement.

On Friday, the Minneapolis City Council voted in favor of a resolution to reaffirm the city's pledge to support refugee resettlement in the city.

The vote comes after President Donald Trump issued an executive order instructing federal officials to receive written consent from local governments before they can accept refugees.

"The Mayor and City Council do hereby affirm the City's status as a Welcoming City, and a city that strongly supports resettling refugees without regard to race, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, nationality, or country of origin," the resolution reads.

In a letter to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Walz on Friday said “The inn is not full in Minnesota.”

It’s not safe to go downtown Minneapolis on a weekend eve. The murder rate is up in the city. Relocated Somalians have sent money overseas to terrorists. The city is turning into a scummy Los Angeles. That’s what happens with liberals in charge.

They want to be Mogadishu on the Mississippi.
Change the state name to Minnesomalia.
