Thanksgiving is next week, but too many families are worried about not being able to put food on the table. These are resources in Minneapolis for those who need it.

Today is Give to the Max Day. If you are able to donate to a local food shelf, I encourage you to do so! 💜

Last week I had the absolute honor of joining @cnn.com to talk me winning the politician of the year award with @oneyoungworld.bsky.social and to talk about @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social ‘s historic election and what it means for young people across the country 💜

As Day of the Dead winds down, I am hopeful that those who are celebrating have had a chance to reconnect with lost loved ones and have enjoyed the company of family and friends. 💜🕯️

We’re officially in the third week of a government shutdown, and federal workers continue to have to show up to work every day without pay.

@emmagreenman.bsky.social, @aurinmpls.bsky.social and I are calling on Republicans to return to DC, negotiate with Democrats, and end this shutdown.

I love geeking out with @katiejonesmpls.bsky.social on clean energy!

On this bipartisan panel we discussed the role of renewable energy sources like solar and nuclear power, and how we can move forward a 100% renewable energy future by 2040.

Hate and antisemitism have no place in our city. We should all be free to practice whatever religion we please, without fear or intimidation.

Today, I was honored to join my colleagues in renaming the 10th Ave bridge as the Minnesota Senate Majority Leader Kari Dziedzic Memorial Bridge.

Sen. Dziedzic demonstrated how to lead with courage and how to deliver for Minnesotans. This bridge is a monument to her service.

I’m proud that my speed camera pilot program is now being implemented.

This will protect Minnesotans by reducing reckless driving and speeding.

These cameras will capture the license plates of speeding drivers and the city will mail a ticket to their home. So, drive carefully!

We need an assault weapons ban in Minnesota. 60% of Americans support it, and Minnesotans want to get it done.

Call your State Senator. Call your State Representative. It’s up to us to come together and make it clear that this has to be the top priority. We CAN do this.

Deep gratitude to everyone who took part in this working group on gun violence prevention, especially those who testified on Monday. I also want to thank my Co-chair Senator Ron Latz, and for leading a respectful conversation about how we move forward. 1/3

Today, the Senate Working Group on Gun Violence Prevention held its first hearing today, where I presented my bill to ban assault rifles. I am so grateful to the families and the local leaders who showed up today to testify and share their experience with gun violence. (1/2)

It was such a joy and honor to celebrate over two decades of impact by the African Development Center — an organization that has become nothing short of a cornerstone in our community.

ADC is a pillar, and continues to build equity in our African immigrant community.

Thank you!

I was honored to attend a reception celebrating Kowsar Mohamed! It's important to me to support and elevate new leaders like Kowsar and to be a partner to institutions like the University of Minnesota. My office was proud to present a resolution honoring Kowsar’s leadership💜

Creating space to celebrate the women in our community filled my heart. Having Warsan Shire, whose words have carried me my whole life made it so special. So grateful to our team and everyone who joined in honoring the beauty of African women. 💜

My generation knows too well that action to curb the gun violence epidemic should have happened decades ago. I’m honored to serve alongside Senator RonLatz as co-chair of our gun violence prevention working group and ready to bring real change to keep our kids and communities safe.

Kowsar Mohamed is the perfect choice to represent students and the University of Minnesota in this moment, and I congratulate her for this well-deserved appointment to the Board of Regents.

Like all of the greatest legislative achievements, the Voting Rights Act of 1965 was possible through the combined effort of outsiders and insiders.

My heart is heavy. I’m grieving. I’m scared. This is my statement on the political violence threatening our communities and our democracy.

I was honored to join our community at the Rise and Remember festival to honor the memory of George Floyd. Every year, I’m reminded of the pain, the power, and the love that bring us together.

S/0 to the beautiful community members like king D who keep George’s memory alive💜
