This evening I stopped in the Corcoran City Council meeting to observe what city leaders and staff are working on. I spent several days door knocking in Corcoran this summer and I fell in love with the wide open space, beautiful vistas, and the kind people.
I am horrified and heartbroken to learn that a woman was shot and killed by ICE today in Minneapolis. We need an about face in this country. The violence and conflict we have experienced the last few months is not sustainable.
Fantastic veterans town hall at the Hamel VFW with @aricformn and @legvold4mnsenate58 ! Thank you to everyone who came out to have a conversation with us about policy impacting veterans, service members, and military families.

Family is not just blood, it is community. And the light of Jesus, the spirit of Christmas, is service. Love, light, and peace to you all this Christmas Eve.
I couldn’t leave town this year for Christmas because I had a veteran in crisis to take care of. That gave me an opportunity to worship at my home church for Christmas Eve. And I will be sharing a meal with friends from my gym for dinner.
