Jan. 27 (UPI) -- Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz met with President Donald Trump's border czar Tuesday to discuss the situation on the ground as immigration enforcement personnel operate in the state.

"Governor Walz met with Tom Homan this morning and reiterated Minnesota's priorities: impartial investigations into the Minneapolis shootings involving federal agents, a swift, significant reduction in the number of federal forces in Minnesota, and an end to the campaign of retribution against Minnesota," the governor's office said in a statement to the media.

The two agreed to continue talks on the matter.

"The Governor and Homan agreed on the need for an ongoing dialogue and will continue working toward those goals, which the President also agreed to yesterday. The Governor tasked the Minnesota Department of Public Safety as the primary liaison to Homan to ensure these goals are met."
