Another great day with @elliottpayne.org and @engy5150.bsky.social talking with neighbors in northeast about a city and park system that work for all people here in Minneapolis!
Election Day is November 4th, and you can also vote early in person!

It is inexcusable to overturn the DFL endorsement from Omar Fateh.

A small group, a majority living outside Minneapolis, met privately to overturn the will of Minneapolis delegates who volunteered, organized, and participated in a months-long DFL process.

28 party insiders met privately and voted to overturn our endorsement.

Let me be clear, we’re still in this fight. And we’re going to win.

This is what a rigged economy looks like:

In the 1970s, CEOs made 27 times more than the average worker.

In the 1980s, CEOs made 48 times more than the average worker.

This decade, CEOs are making 354 times more than the average worker.

That has got to change.

In a competitive global economy, we need the best educated workforce in the world - doctors, nurses, dentists, plumbers, welders, electricians, etc.

Young people should not have to go deeply into debt to get the education they and our nation need.

We must make public colleges tuition free.

It's time to find a "too far left" person you know, apologize, and find out how to plug in.
Remember when some people said “Abolish ICE” “Defund the police” and other people went “oh no that’s too extreme.”

Authoritarian states happen step by step, then all at once. But you couldn't get to this point from a healthy, functional state.

Black folks, Indigenous people, etc have been trying to tell you **based on our lived experience** that "regular" US politics & overt fascism are siblings, maybe twins.

Netanyahu loves Trump's plan to force 2 million people from Gaza & turn it into a billionaires’ Riviera. He calls it "voluntary migration.”

It's not voluntary if you bomb & starve those who stay.

It’s ethnic cleansing. It's a war crime.

No more military aid to Netanyahu.

This doesn’t fix anything at all with the economy & it doesn’t create jobs. In fact, it calls for the USFS to continue to cut jobs. It will, however, pollute the waters & the air, kill wildlife & drastically reduce endangered species & biodiversity.

Thank you @kim.senate.gov for sharing your care story, and standing up for the millions of us who rely on Medicaid to get essential care.

Yesterday, every single Republican & 30 Democrats supported Trump's $8.8 billion bomb shipment to help Netanyahu continue his annihilation of the Palestinian people.

That isn't what the American people want.

The Netanyahu government has killed 50,000 people in Gaza & wounded 112,000.

Two weeks ago, they broke the ceasefire and have since killed 322 children & wounded 600.

The US must end its complicity.

Tomorrow, I will force votes to block $8.8 billion in arm sales to Netanyahu.

It has now been 30 days with NO humanitarian aid getting into Gaza.

No food, no water, no medicine, no fuel.

That is barbaric. The U.S. must end our complicity in these atrocities.
