Commentary: Writer Urges Prosecution of Federal Agents, Medicaid Restoration

In a Minnesota Reformer commentary, the author argues that Minnesota's newly elected Democratic leaders should pursue "justice and accountability" against federal agents involved in the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, and should reverse Trump administration policies. The author cites a Democratic "100-day agenda," including ending cuts to Medicaid and ACA subsidies that the piece says ended coverage for disabled people and raised premiums for millions of families. The commentary also references a DFL push for gun safety legislation and praises Gov. Tim Walz's visit to memorials for the two people killed. No legislative or legal action is reported as having occurred; the piece is an opinion argument following the midterm election.
