Great to see this bipartisan change in Minnesota—being a young parent should never be a barrier to serving our state. I led the effort in the U.S. Senate to allow newborns on the floor, but this is even more impressive.
The Dem Socialist (DSA) platform is literally a suicide pact for any major American city. Defund the police, abolish prisons, strict rent control, and destruction of private businesses. The folks at the bottom would be left to deal with the consequences as those with means flee.
Some snapshots from the NE parade last week. The energy in this city is real, and you can feel it in every neighborhood. Minneapolis is on the rise. Let's keep moving forward, together.
And for those of you tweeting in reckless disregard of the truth, I hope you realize you’re using—and increasing— people’s fears for your own political ends.
Some democracy, @dfl. A majority of delegates vote to endorse a candidate, but the 60% threshold and time delay is used to block endorsement for the benefit of a non-Democrat. Maybe fix our own house, too.
Jacob Frey’s experience and leadership are incredibly important to Minneapolis right now. He is tenacious, purposeful, and committed to the people he represents.
True democracy means listening to the community, not just when it suits your agenda.
Council Member Palmisano hit the nail on the head: 'If the body only honors community feedback when it aligns with your vision, that's not democracy. That's an echo chamber.'

It is shameful for Callahan to suggest that students living in poverty are incapable of meeting academic standards.
To argue for the elimination of these standards, rather than the implementation of evidence-based curriculum to help more students achieve them, is disgusting.
