Minnesota Attorney General | Fighting to help Minnesotans afford their lives and live with dignity. Prepared and paid for by Keith Ellison for Attorney General.
Minnesota deserves a People’s Lawyer.
I stand up to the powerful, hold corporations accountable, protect our freedoms, and fight every day for working people and our communities.
These are the priorities guiding my work today—and the fight ahead.

I'm standing up to Trump because he's breaking the law and harming the people of Minnesota.
And because, to be frank, it pisses me off to see someone trying to bully Minnesotans.
Agents of the Trump administration shot and killed Renee Good and Alex Pretti on the streets of Minneapolis during Operation Metro Surge — and the Trump administration has still not released all the evidence surrounding their deaths. I’m fighting in federal court to get them to release it.
Alex Pretti’s parents’ plea today for transparency and justice moved me and should move every Minnesotan. I will not be deterred in my pursuit of the truth, justice, and accountability that the families of Alex Pretti and Renee Good deserve.
RT @MinnesotaDFL: NEW: Republican Ron Schutz is set to THROW OUT an ongoing lawsuit from the state of Minnesota against Glock, if elected.
This move would allow Glock to continue selling handguns that can easily be modified into illegal machine guns.
Gun safety is on the ballot.
Glock knows their pistols can easily be converted into illegal machine guns, yet they refuse to change their design, so I'm suing them. Converted Glocks pose a serious danger to the people of Minnesota and especially to law enforcement.
My opponent, Ron Schutz, would end that lawsuit and make Minnesota less safe if he wins.
RT @BettyMcCollum04: I applaud AG Ellison for taking action to protect women from hazardous “beauty” products marketed to women of color. Products like hair relaxers and skin lighteners reinforce racist stereotypes of beauty and mislead consumers into thinking they are harmless.
8 days left, Minnesota. Time to knock doors, make calls, and most importantly, vote!
Find a volunteer shift at and head to to find your polling place and make a plan to vote on or before November 3.
Stealing from programs meant to feed children and support vulnerable Minnesotans is an attack on our communities and our public trust. I’m using every tool available to hold fraudsters accountable and recover taxpayer dollars.

Keith Ellison alleges businesses stole millions meant to feed children
We lost Paul Wellstone 24 years ago today.
Paul was a tremendous leader who reminded us what it means to stand up to corporate power and stand with our fellow Minnesotans.
So, when they try to divide us, remember that we all do better when we all do better.
Making life more affordable isn’t someone else’s job. It’s the Attorney General’s job to hold powerful corporations accountable, stop them from ripping off Minnesotans, and fight for working families.
Because when corporations put profits ahead of people, I’m going to make them answer for it.
RT @atrupar: Keith Ellison: "This guy had the nerve to go on his social media thing and say he was gonna get 'reckoning and retribution against Minnesota.' Well I can't wait until November 3 so we can get reckoning and retribution on him."
RT @BernieSanders: Thank you Duluth, Minnesota! Great crowd.
Let’s reelect Keith Ellison as Attorney General and send Peggy Flanagan to the United States Senate.
10 days, Minnesota. We know what’s at stake. We know who we’re fighting for. And we know we’re not backing down.
Let’s bring this home for every Minnesotan who deserves a chance to afford their life.
Trump's Operation Metro Surge brought pain, fear, and suffering to people throughout Minnesota.
I stepped up to defend Minnesotans from that reckoning and retribution. Ron Schutz wouldn't have, and that's disqualifying.
.@ewarren is one of the most effective champions for working-class Americans we have, and I'm honored to have her support.
I’ll always fight for a fair economy that does right by the people of Minnesota, and I'll keep holding those who abuse their power accountable.
