Minnesota Think Tank GC Suspended, Apologizes for Remarks About Somali Refugees

By on June 28, 2019 in General Counsel, Immigration, International

The general counsel of a Minnesota think tank has been suspended for comments she made about Somali-Americans in a New York Times article, reports the Twin Cities Pioneer Press.

The article with the comments from Kim Crockett, vice president and general counsel of the conservative Center of the American Experiment, examined the resistance to refugee resettlement in St. Cloud.

The following day, the Golden Valley-based organization announced that Crockett had been placed on an unpaid 30-day disciplinary suspension and said in a statement that her comments do not reflect its “views and values.”
