A photo showing the words "Assassinate Ilhan Omar" was posted to Instagram on Feb. 22.
The man who posted the photo wrote that he saw it written on a stall in the men's room at a Holiday gas station in Rogers.
The post gained more attention after Omar tweeted it on Friday.
A spokesperson with the FBI's Minneapolis division said Sunday that the bureau was aware of the post and is looking into the matter in partnership with other agencies.
The proposal suggests removing the 20-year protection on the Superior National Forest that President Joe Biden’s administration had ordered in 2023.
