A tweet from the Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus:
Today, we sent a letter to leaders at the United States Department of Justice and the US Department of Education requesting a federal investigation into the University of Minnesota Law School’s Gun Control Litigation Clinic.
This “clinic” is led by a former litigator from Everytown Law, a gun control group. It operates in partnership with MN AG Keith Ellison’s office as a political and legal arm of the Walz/Ellison Administration’s gun control strategy.
Their activities are not good-faith exercises in legal education, public service, or even legal education. Instead, they are engaged in taxpayer-funded litigation activism aimed at dismantling one of our nation’s core constitutional freedoms—the Second Amendment.
There is no place for this at a public university.
We request in our letter that US DOJ initiate a pattern-or-practice investigation into this coordinated effort by the State of Minnesota and the University of Minnesota to suppress constitutionally protected conduct and silence dissenting views.
And that US DOE conducts a comprehensive audit of federal funds directed to the University of Minnesota Law School, specifically reviewing whether such funds are supporting advocacy programs that violate constitutional norms, limit academic freedom, or compromise institutional neutrality.

Task Forces, and “investigations” are government’s preferred avenues for doing nothing.
