Normal was an inadequate system. We can't go back to normal, back to a system that prioritizes some people, and dehumanizes others. #PoorPeoplesCampaign

Our youngest Minnesotans deserve access to quality care without financial strain. HF 1278 creates the Great Start for All Minnesotan Children Task Force to give all Minnesotans—matter what they look like or what’s in their wallets—access to quality childcare.#MNLeg#FundChildcare
Those who make more that +$20,000/week should pay their fair share. This pandemic has not hit everyone equally and it's appalling that there are large corporations and people making money off of this pandemic.
Our budget is how we care for one another. But instead of pitching in their fair share, the richest among us have used this pandemic to get even richer.
Minnesotans are calling on #mnleg to make sure the people on top #ShareTheWealth, so we can #FundOurFutures.
Essential workers, especially immigrants, have been hit hardest by the pandemic and have received the least relief. We must make a commitment to get these workers vaccinated and provide them with economic assistance.

'During the pandemic, childcare centers like mine are struggling to remain open and have been working incredibly hard to be there for our families and staff. We are here today to ask our legislators to support our educators and families" ~Luisa, Kids Count On Us, #FundOurFutures
"We can thrive, even in a pandemic, if we make the investments now. We are overdue to raise revenue in this state." - JaNae Bates @minnesota_faith#FundOurFutures
Not all Minnesotans were hit equally by the pandemic. We need a budget that reflects that some people need relief more than others. #FundOurFutures#ShareTheWealth
“Essential work should not have to be sacrificial.” Emilia with @UnidosMN.
We deserve to thrive no matter what we look like, how we pray, how we work, or our immigration status—especially during a pandemic. We must #FundOurFuture so we ALL can thrive. #WeMakeMN#MNLeg
