Something that Ilhan speaks about so often is eliminating all student debt and forgiving student debt and really making it possible for people to get an education without a cost.
OpenSecrets.org coverage of the Minnesota District 05 election held in 2020. As women of color, we are held to so many contradictory, unfair, unrealistic standards. Ilhan Omar Has A New Challenger In The Minnesota 2020 Congressional Election.
