<p>Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) said during a Sunday interview that her son was recently &#8220;pulled over&#8221; by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents — and that they had only let him go because he was able to produce his passport and confirm his identity.</p>
<p>Omar spoke to local CBS News affiliate WCCO in Minnesota, telling interviewer Esme Murphy that her son always carries his passport for just such an occasion.</p>

<p>&#8220;Yesterday, after he made a stop at Target, he did get pulled over by ICE agents, and once he was able to produce his passport ID, they did let him go,&#8221; Omar explained.</p>
<p>&#8220;So your son went to Target last night with his passport?&#8221; Murphy asked.</p>
<p>&#8220;He always carries it with him,&#8221; Omar said.</p>
<p>&#8220;In case he gets pulled over?&#8221; Murphy clarified. &#8220;Which he did, by ICE.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Yes,&#8221; Omar replied, saying that ICE agents had also come into a mosque where her son was, but that they had left without detaining anyone. Following that incident, she said she&#8217;d &#8220;had to remind him just how worried I am, because all of these areas that they are talking about are areas where he could possibly find himself in and they are racially profiling, they are looking for young men who look Somali that they think are undocumented.&#8221;</p>
<p>Omar&#8217;s interview comes just days after she <a href="https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/26375494-20251211-operation-metro-surge-letter/">wrote a letter</a> addressed to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and acting ICE Director Todd Lyons, demanding answers about ICE activities in her home state and claiming that they were driven by President Donald Trump&#8217;s &#8220;racist comments.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Constituents, advocates, and local officials have documented blatant racial profiling, an egregious level of unnecessary force, and activity that appears designed for social media rather than befitting a law enforcement agency,&#8221; she wrote in part. &#8220;I am demanding answers on behalf of my constituents whose constitutional rights are being violated on a daily basis.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;It is clear to me that this surge came in direct response to Trump’s racist comments about Somali people, and about me in particular. Earlier this month, Trump called Somali immigrants &#8216;garbage&#8217; and ranted that he does not want us in this country,&#8221; she added.</p>
