Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar said Thursday she will run for governor of Minnesota, after Tim Walz's surprise announcement earlier this month that he was dropping his bid for a third term.

Democratic US Senator Amy Klobuchar has said she is running for governor in her home state of Minnesota amid the tumult of an ongoing immigration crackdown.

Klobuchar touched on issues like affordable health care and housing, and the “3,000 ICE agents in our streets and towns sent by an administration that relishes division.”
