City policy can help: Xcel franchise $ for geothermal systems, weatherization, sealing homes against pollution/heat.
Better insulation=cleaner air.
Climate adaptation=keeping families safe 💪

Deeply honored to receive the Moms Demand Action candidate distinction 🧡 My dad was a police officer—gun violence prevention is personal. Every family deserves to know their loved ones come home safe. Together we build the safer St. Paul we deserve ✊ #GunViolencePrevention #StPaul #Ward4

🧊 No cooperation with ICE. Ever.
At the MICAH forum last night, I said it plain:
I will never cooperate with child snatchers and cowards hiding behind face masks—not as your neighbor, and not as your councilmember.

Nearly 20% of St. Paul’s land is tax-exempt. Private colleges hold \$709M in property that could generate $8.8M year. My Co-PILOT plan asks them to pay their fair share for the public services we all rely on. It’s about fairness—not punishment. #Ward4 #CoPILOT #StPaul #Taxes

My mom was prescribed fentanyl. It took her life. This fight is personal. I'm running to bring a public health voice to City Hall—because every overdose deserves action. This week, $1 of every $5 raised goes to local orgs. Coleforward4.org
