DOJ Serves Subpoenas to Minnesota Officials in Immigration Crackdown Investigation

The US Department of Justice has served subpoenas to several high-ranking officials in the state of Minnesota, including Governor Tim Walz and Mayor Jake Frey. The subpoenas are part of a federal inquiry into immigration enforcement.

According to reports, prosecutors have issued the subpoenas as part of an investigation into the administration’s handling of immigration-related matters. The identities of those being subpoenaed were not disclosed.

The subpoenas were reportedly served on Governor Walz and Mayor Frey in connection with the recent surge in immigration enforcement actions in Minnesota. The Department of Justice has been investigating the state’s response to these actions, which have sparked controversy among some lawmakers and advocacy groups.

Additionally, sources close to the investigation have confirmed that the Department of Justice plans to subpoena Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison as part of the inquiry. Ellison is the chief law enforcement officer for the state and has been a vocal advocate for immigration reform.

The subpoenas are part of a broader effort by federal prosecutors to gather information about the administration’s handling of immigration-related matters. The investigation is ongoing, and it is unclear what specific questions will be asked or what evidence will be sought as part of the inquiry.

The Department of Justice has declined to comment on the specifics of the investigation or the subpoenas being served.
