From Reddit.
Apparently threats that #NoKings events could be targets of the assassin didn’t discourage Minnesotans.
After all the Capitol is the people’s house.

Fun fact: I wrote my masters thesis in sex trafficking. Sex work is work.
Today is International Sex Workers' Day. The criminalization of sex work increases the risk of harm to sex workers -- including harm from arrest, jailing, conviction, stigmatization, violence, and exploitation. Sex work should be decriminalized.
Sex workers’ fight for decriminalization, explained
Sex workers have been fighting for decriminalization for generations. Now politicians are starting to listen.

Tell your legislators that Bezos and Zuckerberg don't need tax cuts - Real MN's do!
We've been working w/partners to stop huge give aways to data centers & ultra-rich polluters. The #mnleg is considering hundreds of millions of $$ in tax breaks for data centers that hog & pollute water w/toxic chemicals. Tax cuts to polluters is wrong for MN!

Amazon suspends data center in Becker, Minn.
The decision comes as state lawmakers said they'd reduce tax breaks for data centers. The massive project was celebrated by local officials for its economic benefits.

Some MN leaders want to KEEP taxpayer subsidies for Amazon, Google, Facebook & Delta, which requires deeper cuts to health care, transit, etc. But they're having trouble getting votes for this because it’s so unpopular! Pick your favorite message & call your legislators NOW. #mnleg

Clean Water Action in Minnesota helped deliver a win in May 2023, when @governorwalz.mn.gov signed the strongest PFAS reduction provisions in the country. Amara’s Law bans some products containing PFAS in 2025 and all non-essential uses of PFAS chemicals by 2032.

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem's bag was stolen, including her driver’s license, medication, apartment keys, passport, DHS access badge, makeup bag, blank checks, and about $3,000 in cash.
If she can't even secure her bag, how can she be trusted with homeland security?

Americans are frustrated Democrats don’t do more because Republicans control congress. But they don’t control MN. Our legislators can stop rollbacks of climate laws simply by VOTING NO on terrible House Transportation (HF2438) and Senate Energy (SF2393) Bills. (I'm proud of this coalition!) #mnleg
