MINNEAPOLIS — Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota called Tuesday for an end to the partial federal government shutdown, accusing President Donald Trump of holding the salaries of federal workers “hostage” so he can build a “symbol of hate,” a wall on the U.S. border with Mexico.

Omar , a Somali-American who is a former refugee herself, gathered people affected by the shutdown , now in its 32nd day, and immigration policies for a news conference at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.
