As AG, I oversee the BCI investigation (Not the county prosecution). Our investigators are working hard to secure all the facts & eventually present them to the county prosecutor w/original jurisdiction. I pledge a fair, thorough, aggressive investigation, as is my reputation.

🚨IMPORTANT WIN!!! As Atty General for North Dakota, I have proudly fought Biden-Harris admin’s attempts to allow biological males to invade women’s sports, locker rooms and bathrooms. Hours ago, the US Supreme Court sided with safety, sanity, and science!
@Riley_Gaines_
🚨BREAKING: In a 5-4 decision, SCOTUS has struck down the Biden-Harris administration's rewrite of Title IX, which would have allowed men in women’s sports, bathrooms, locker rooms, dorms, and compelled speech.
HUGE win. Onward!
