Minneapolis, MN – On November 11, leaders from the Minnesota Free Palestine Coalition (FPC) held a post-election press conference to demand that future Governor Amy Klobuchar use the governor’s seat on the State Board of Investment (SBI) to divest from companies complicit in Israel’s crimes. The press conference was held in downtown Minneapolis outside of Klobuchar’s office.
