We're doing a Meetup in Minneapolis! @ApachePinot and @apachekafka in the same night. Hoping to see @nbuesing and @kateagnewmn while I'm up north. 😊

Whoa! There is a 3D printed home in Tempe, AZ built in partnership with @Habitat_org @coreywoodstempe #CCC23 https://t.co/ESCof7KgAW

[Mayor Melanie Kebler @MelanieKebler]

"We have to allow housing to be built. We have to deal with Not In My Backyard."

@SecFudge here speaking housing policy truths to city leaders at NLC #CCC23

Also points out that "some of my most liberal friends still don't want a new neighbor that looks like me." 🔥

[Kate Agnew @KateAgnewMN]

Housing is a problem. From @SecFudge: We are one million houses short and we treat poor people like they don’t exist. #CCC23

[Kate Agnew @KateAgnewMN]

According to @SecVilsack, approximately 40% of those eligible for WIC don’t utilize it. I benefited from WIC as a child and I need to learn more about how we can better help those who need it. #CCC23

Some unfortunate rhetoric coming from the @HuntingtonMayor on the risks of fentanyl to first responders. First responders should follow best practices, it isn’t as risky as he suggests https://t.co/BlOTFXTqAi

Day 2 at @leagueofcities #CCC23 kicks off with @DrGupta46 speaking about federal drug policies, including harm reduction and recovery support.

[Kate Agnew @KateAgnewMN]

Lives can be saved if we improve the treatment of substance use disorder in jails and make overdose reversal drugs like naloxone readily available

[Kate Agnew @KateAgnewMN]

@MelanieKebler @twjpdx23 @leagueofcities I would love that!!!

[Kate Agnew @KateAgnewMN]

Kicking off the @leagueofcities National League of Cities conference in DC with the data point that about 50% of Americans say affordable housing is a major issue #CCC23

[Kate Agnew @KateAgnewMN]

My next session focuses on leveraging HUD housing programs for the development of affordable housing. I love seeing innovative examples from other cities!

Whoever was born on 11/11/11 is 11 today! Happy Birthday!

[Kate Agnew @KateAgnewMN]

@batsandleather @AaronGleeman Indeed! Will you be at the thanksgiving happy hour?

[Aaron Gleeman @AaronGleeman]

Years ago, a woman asked if her boyfriend could watch us record a podcast as his birthday present.

They were super nice and became "the official couple" of our show. Now they're married, with kids.

And yesterday that woman, @KateAgnewMN, was elected to the Edina city council.
