We must honor those lost without allowing tragedy to justify prejudice, endless surveillance, or policing rooted in fear. Our responsibility is to build a city where every person, regardless of their faith, race, or background, is treated with dignity and kept safe.
🧵Today, we remember the nearly 3,000 lives taken on September 11, 2001. I’m thinking about the first responders who ran toward danger, the families who lost loved ones, and everyone who continues to carry the grief and trauma of that day.
We must also confront what followed.
That legacy continues whenever fear is used to justify indiscriminate surveillance, militarized responses to protest, or the targeting of immigrant communities.
This campaign will center the voices of those most affected by the challenges Madison faces. We’re building this together, and last night was only the beginning.

Thank you so much to everyone who came out to support our campaign launch last night. I’m running for Mayor to be a community builder, and it was beautiful to see new faces, old friends, and people making new connections throughout the room. 1/2
“My rent went up again.”
“Am I safe in my neighborhood?”
The challenges Madison faces are real. So is our ability to solve them.
I’m running to be Madison’s next Mayor to build a city that includes us all.

The last 11 months have been one of the greatest joys of my life. Traveling the state, meeting people in churches and dive bars and bike races and dance parties and in their homes, and hearing about what matters most to them informed every decision we made on the trail. It will continue to inform the work we do— and ask our supporters to do— moving forward.
This campaign was not about getting one person into office. It is about building a movement for permanent affordability and a government that puts working people first. Our movement is strong, and the work isn't done. I am overwhelmingly proud of our team and the work they have done to achieve that goal.
Congratulations to David Crowley and his team. I fully support him and look forward to working with him to defeat Congressman Tiffany in November.
A WI family is demanding justice after Tariana Thompson, 27, was struck and killed while riding a bike in May. The driver hasn't been charged; a homicide inquest is set. "The day my daughter passed away, he should have been locked up," her father said. https://t.co/LLNX5Puh57
