There has been no de-escalation. Case in point: MPS is continuing to offer online learning through April 6.

Tonight at 8:30 PM our constituent Ricky was pepper sprayed by ICE on 18th & Polk. 2 agents parked their car, got out and approached observers, started pepper spraying Ricky on public property, and then drove away and left.

Nothing is changing on the ground in Minnesota. ICE must be abolished.

As a doctor, I am horrified by what I saw at the Whipple detention facility in Minneapolis.

No medical protocols.

No real medical care.

No nurse on site when I visited.

No beds. No real blankets. Extremely cold temperatures. Minimal food.

These conditions are inhumane and unacceptable.

This is not the America we learned about in civics class. This is the behavior of a dictatorship.

It is extremely disappointing that the Trump Administration is allowing the START Treaty to expire without negotiating a new nuclear arms agreement with Russia and China. Our national security is stronger when major powers work together to reduce nuclear weapons stocks.

Last night, every corner of Minnesota showed up.

That’s exactly what this campaign is - a movement BY Minnesotans, FOR Minnesotans.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you, Minnesota.

We need ICE OUT of Minnesota.

They need to repair and restore what they have broken.

Then we need to rip ICE apart.

Parents are afraid to send their kids to school, classrooms sit half-empty, children are being taken to detention facilities. We’ve crossed a line.

I stood with education leaders to discuss the growing harm federal actions are causing to children, families, and our schools.

Today we won.

A U.S. District Court ruled that the administration violated federal law when it secretly convened a group of climate contrarians to produce a thoroughly debunked report to overturn the Endangerment Finding.

The science still matters. We won't stop.

Reflecting on all we’ve lost and all we’ve done this past year, I’m resolved in our efforts to keep going. We must imagine, and work towards, a brighter future. Don’t let up.

How do we reach voters who skipped voting?

EVP finds people who care about the environment &
reminds them when/where to vote

They do a/b testing
to see how much difference their efforts make.

Of 12M contacted in 21 states,
✅ 2M are now regular voters

IMPORTANT FINAL NOTE:

Talking Climate's structure is deliberately based on the behavioural science of how to catalyze action--not worry--by sharing concrete solutions & actions.

Why? Because the whole world could be worried but if they don't know what to do, they'll do nothing!
