👋 Hi Bluesky! We’re ISAIAH — a multiracial group of Minnesotans building #PeoplePower to win a just future for everyone in our state. We come from faith communities, Black barbershops, childcare centers, college campuses, rural places, city neighborhoods, manufactured home parks, and more!
Early educators 🤝 Minnesota families

Calling on #mnleg to #FundChildcare so it works better for all of us!

Gratitude isn’t easy in a world shaped by political cruelty. Yet through our collective action, we remind each other despair does not get the final word. And for that, we are truly thankful. 🌟 #HappyThanksgiving

Throwback to the Black Church Summit in mid-October, where over 500 leaders came together to cast a bold vision for our youth, our housing, and our healthcare! 📣

❤️‍🩹🩺 Recently, ISAIAH members from St. Louis Park and Hopkins met with Hennepin County commissioners to discuss healthcare cuts and fight for solutions that make sure everyone can get the care we need.

Across race and place, Minnesota manufactured homeowners have worked hard for our homes. Now private equity firms are buying up parks, raising lot rents, and threatening our stability. 📈

📣 Catalina and her Brandondale neighbors have a message for Senator Julia Coleman: “We need your help.”

📣 Last night, Southern MN ISAIAH leaders shared powerful testimony with the #mnleg about skyrocketing drug costs, a $100k wrongful bill that led to tragedy, and 18,500 low-income Minnesotans waiting for dental care.

It’s time to build a healthcare system that leaves no one behind. 💪

Families can’t afford childcare. Early educators can’t make ends meet. Centers are shutting down.

It's time for our lawmakers to #FundChildcare that works for everyone — no exceptions. 👩‍👩‍👧‍👦🤝🧑‍🏫
Families with two children now spend an average of $2,252 per month on child care.

📣 Leaders with ISAIAH’s Manufactured Home Residents Collective recently met with @ag.state.mn.us to lift up the real issues happening in our parks.

We’re organizing for true stability for every Minnesotan — no matter where we come from or how our home was built. 🏡

The Manufactured Home Residents Collective has kicked off a month of action across Minnesota to win a Manufactured Housing Bill of Rights.

From Lakeville to Chaska, Mankato to Blaine and Inver Grove Heights, these leaders are showing up to take on private equity and win stability for all. 👏

Look 👏 at 👏 these 👏 childcare 👏 leaders 👏 go!

@kcoumn.bsky.social just held powerful meetings in Minneapolis & St. Paul — bringing together childcare providers, teachers, parents, & community members ready to organize & demand that Minnesota finally #FundChildcare like we should! 👶👩‍🏫

🤗 Five core leaders from ISAIAH’s Black Church Power Project and Co-Executive Director Minister JaNaé Bates recently returned from a weeklong training in Kingian Nonviolent Direct Action at Tennessee’s Alex Haley Farm.

What an honor to learn from those who fought for freedom alongside Dr. King!

🔊 “They’re just jacking up rents because they want to get rich off of poor people.”

Now that ain’t right.

🏡✊ That’s why the Manufactured Home Residents Collective of ISAIAH is taking on the private equity firms buying up our parks and hiking up the rent. bit.ly/parksunited4change

💸 You shouldn’t need to make six figures to buy a home — but in much of Minnesota, you do.

It’s time for the #mnleg to say #YesToHomes: make it easier to build more housing, end exclusionary zoning, and help Minnesotans find a stable place to call home. 🏡

In Minnesota, it now takes a six-figure income to buy a home
House prices in the state are rising faster than incomes, making homeownership — long a marker of middle class status — out of reach for many.

Thank you to everyone who made this victory happen! This was an incredibly common sense change that will make Saint Paul better.

📣 150 Northfield residents came together to talk Medicaid cuts with County Commissioner Galen Malecha. These federal cuts threaten rural hospitals, disability care & seniors.

❤️‍🩹 Too many people are being forced to choose between medicine & food. We’re organizing because no one should have to. 💯

I’ll be voting YES on Question 1 on my ballot. It would allow St Paul to use administrative citations to enforce its local ordinances.
A yes vote is supported by the DFL, labor unions, faith groups, and more. Check it out!

I hope you’ll join me.
