There is so much at stake today. I am up against $129,000 from conservative and Republican donors. I have a clear vision to protect our communities from Trump, to improve affordability and address key issues like food insecurity. We need you now more than ever.

I've had a lot of students ask me about registering to vote as a student! I'm here to let you know that if you have lived in Minneapolis for 20 days and meet the other requirements (you can find them on my website), you can cast your ballot here!

Join us tomorrow as we get out the vote with @ilhanmn.bsky.social and @omarfatehmn.com! In this final push, we need all hands on deck to elect a mayor who will prioritize the needs of working people -- not corporate landlords and millionaires.

My office has worked to advance protections for survivors and victims. We've been met with barriers and excuses from Frey's admin. I'm horrified, but unsurprised, that MPD’s reports related to their response to Mariah Samuels are out-of-line of her family's experience.

It’s Mesa’s last day before closing permanently. Go show them some ❤️
Mesa Pizza was priced out of Dinkytown. Another beloved small business driven out by price gouging. We need to protect our small businesses from corporate greed with commercial rent control!

“Despite its challenges, Wonsley said, the most rewarding part of her time on City Council has been showing local voters, such as students, how the decision making process works and how they can have a lead part in it."

Yesterday, the Frey administration declined to release the internal investigation conducted by MPD related to their actions surrounding the violence and shooting of Davis Moturi by his neighbor. Mr. Moturi and our community deserves a transparency.

The days are getting darker earlier! I am glad to have passed funding to increase lighting in Dinkytown. Students should be able to walk home from class with visibility, and that is exactly what my office delivered this year!

I stand in solidarity with our Local 59 educators who voted to authorize a strike. Minneapolis educators and working families all want a school system that sets kids up for success.

Last night, @michaelforparks.bsky.social and I finally were able to door-knock renters in a building owned by John Wall. Wall prioritized his own politics before his legal responsibility as a landlord. After taking him to court, he was found in violation of the law repeatedly.

"Not only is Frey unable to find funds to fill a hole amounting to less than 1% of the city’s $2 billion budget, he proposes cutting 100 emergency housing vouchers at the same time, pitting two vital programs against each other.”

“While U.S. democracy feels fragile, we’re making city government more democratic by responding to community members’ needs and ideas with policies like wage increases and protections for rideshare drivers and safer streetlights in Dinkytown.”

We are ONE WEEK out from Election Day! I am proud of the broad coalition of support I have earned over the last 3.5 years and what we have accomplished. To continue our fight for justice and equity and MPLS, you need to vote.

Some of my opponents have claimed that I don’t care about our economy & small businesses – which is far from the truth.
