Today, U.S. Representative Tim Walz (MN-01) released the following statement after the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) released a squad car video of a July 2016 incident in Worthington, MN:

"Like many Minnesotans, I found the video released today deeply disturbing. I have had a chance to speak with local officials and leaders in the community and believe all parties are passionate in pursuing justice. I will continue closely monitoring this situation. Addressing situations like this one in our communities and in Minnesota is an absolute necessity, and we are all in this together."
