Our youth are showing up! I have been fortunate to join with high schoolers and young adults who care deeply about their state this session. When I hear their ideas, I am reminded of the great potential for good that state government holds—and that we can lead the way.
The priorities of the administration laid bare: a billion dollars a day for endless, unprovoked wars abroad, with no intention to provide relief or programming to the hurting communities at home. Message received.

Trump: We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country. We're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things.
I was fortunate to attend a @WomenWinning event some time ago. I left it KNOWING that I could run for office. Ten years later, I am proud to carry forward their endorsement as the MN State Rep in 62B.
Grateful for you, WW! Advocacy orgs like yours show us what is possible. ❤️
I am honored to receive the endorsement of the @MinnesotaDFL for MN House District 62B. Thank you, Delegates for your confidence in me to carry forward our collective advocacy and work. We will continue to hold the line in the face unprecedented challenges. We will not bend.
Join Representative Aisha Gomez, Senator Omar Fateh and myself tomorrow at 6:00 p.m. for a Senate District 62 town hall. RSVP for address. I am looking forward to seeing you there and to provide a place for conversation around what we are hoping to accomplish this session.
The beginning of the 2026 MN legislative session has been busy and productive. I was happy to join this week with my old union, AFSCME to talk about the importance of protecting Civil Legal Aid for workers and residents in my district and across the state.
Today we gaveled in the 94th MN Legislature. I am proud to represent southside MPLS, and look forward to making real wins for 62B. Speaker Hortman's desk will remain a memorial throughout, a reminder of her leadership to bring care and civility to all our work at the capitol.
Thank you to everyone who caucused on Tuesday, and for sharing your energy and vision in what you want to see reflected in our advocacy at a party and legislative level. Looking forward to seeing you at the SD62 convention!
ICE and their scare tactics will not move us towards complacency. Southside always looks out for one another, stands up to call out injustice, and builds grassroots power — together. Join me and your neighbors this evening at precinct caucuses and bring your voice to the table.
Please join myself, the entire District 3 Legislative Delegation, and attorneys from @hennepin's Adult Legal Representation Services for a Know-Your-Rights Virtual Town Hall next Thursday, Feb 5, from 7-8 pm.

Speaking truth to the federal overreach taking place right now is in itself an act of bravery. The attack last night against @IlhanMN is terrifying. I am proud she held her own. We must condemn attacks on elected officials, and we will not be silenced in the face of injustice.
Another resident has been murdered by ICE in Mpls. We cannot be made whole from this continued loss of life. Say his name: Alex Pretti.
How many people will die at the hands of this rouge force before we wake up — as communities, elected officials, and as a nation? ICE OUT NOW.
I am running for re-election in MN House in 62B, and I humbly ask for your support at precinct caucuses on Feb 3! To build the local line of defense against federal attacks, we all need to participate. Together, I know we will not bend. Read statement: https://t.co/qC7P5SsUWE
ICE has murdered a resident in, and from, my district. I am angry, sad, and without words save these: ICE MUST GO. LEAVE MPLS. This cruel and inefficient federal immigration action is only sowing terror, sadness, and bloodshed. Please bring calm to this tragic moment.
Our community came together on Labor Day to stand up for working people. We deserve fully funded schools, healthcare and child care we can count on. Together we’re building an economy where we can thrive and where billionaires pull their weight.
Tell me why the rally with @peggyflanagan and @ewarren felt like a concert?? Everyone was energized and excited to send Peggy to DC to fight for ALL of us, not just the wealthy few.
Children's MN Hospital is asking that anyone who is able please use their Saint Paul emergency room rather than the Minneapolis room so they can focus on this tragedy.
We've lost two children with many more injured. I'm heartbroken that they would be targeted in their place of worship - what should be a safe space for all.
I am praying for their families and fully committed to taking meaningful action to stop this rampant gun violence.
National Night Out was such a good time. Good people, good food and great conversations. We’re a community that cares about each other and that love came through in every story shared.
I am thrilled to join #TeamPeggy in her run for US Senate. I’m supporting her because she fights for all Minnesotans. Hard stop. She’s compassionate, truly listens, and acts so that she can deliver on the things that we all need to thrive. I hope you will join me!
.@anquam62B is a champion for our children, public schools, and educators. She has fought tirelessly to ensure our neighbors have the resources and help they need to make it into the middle class.
I'm proud to have earned her endorsement of my campaign for US Senate.
