Little Hands, Big Hearts 💗

This morning, we joined hundreds of families at the kids march for love and community in Como. We’re so lucky to call this place home.

My thoughts on the “end” of operation metro surge:

➡️ I’ll believe it when I see it.
➡️ The damage remains. Our neighbors have disappeared. Our kids are traumatized. Our small businesses are struggling.
➡️ Minnesotans are leading the resistance.
➡️ Keep it up. Organizing works.

The energy at the SD66 DFL caucuses last night was incredible! Our neighbors are ready to organize.

Big night for me and baby Leo (his first caucus!) as I kicked off my re-election campaign.

We’re fighting to keep our communities safe. That means ICE OUT. ✊🏽

If my caucus is any indication, Democrats in the cities currently occupied by ICE want the whole damn thing abolished actually.

Oh must have been so nerve wracking for you as a parent. I took my 5 month old but he was all bundled up on his auntie’s chest. These kids are so brave and I’m so proud of them ❤️

Once again, our kids are leading the way. Yesterday, Saint Paul students organized a massive, district-wide walkout, marching all the way to the State Capitol to demand that ICE get out of our city. I am so proud to stand with these brave students in their fight for justice.✊🏽❤️

Students at RAHS walk out to protest ICE High school students took to the streets with community support

Check out this full report from @rosevillereader.bsky.social on yesterday’s student-led walkout at Roseville Area High School. Over 700 students showed up to make their voices heard. It was amazing to witness.

So proud to be a Roseville alum. Our kids are leading the way.

A young lawmaker comes of age in Minneapolis, a city that keeps grieving State Sen. Zaynab Mohamed’s life and career have been shaped by George Floyd’s death, school shootings, a political assassination and a deadly ICE crackdown.

So much admiration for leaders like Zaynab Mohamed. She somehow finds a way to bring optimism during such dark times.

So proud of the students at my alma mater, Roseville High School, for today’s walkout protesting ICE. They give me so much hope! Ask the young people in your circles how they need to be supported in this moment. They are leading the way.

We need justice for Renee Nicole Good. The Trump administration is corrupt. This is the time to get involved. We keep each other safe. Sign up for a training. Links below. And call your members of Congress to demand the FBI shares evidence with the MN BCA.

‘She was an amazing human being’: Mother identifies woman shot, killed by ICE agent Renee Nicole Good, 37, lived in Minneapolis with her partner just blocks from where she was shot.

Renee Nicole Good was a mother, wife, poet, and writer. She cared deeply for her neighbors. She should still be here today. As a new mom, my heart breaks for her 6-year-old child.

Let us say her name and honor her life.

Today we hope you will join us in remembering former Senate Majority Leader Kari Dziedzic, who we lost one year ago today. She was known for her tireless work ethic, quick wit, and unyielding kindness. She was driven by service, not the spotlight.

Enrollment is up & MN’s 2-year colleges are keeping the entire system afloat. Faculty are the backbone of that success—training our workforce & supporting local industry. Yet, @mscfmn.bsky.social have gone 175 days without a contract. That’s too long. Invest in our educators.

Minnesota State's two year campuses drive Minnesota's economy and the Faculty make that happen

Today, Leo and I attended the dedication of the Senator Kari Dziedzic Memorial Bridge. It was one of Leo’s first outings, and there was no better way to mark the moment than by celebrating Kari’s incredible leadership and legacy.

Report: Minnesota police executed 78% fewer no-knock warrants in Minnesota last year The report shows many agencies, including the Hennepin and Ramsey County sheriff’s offices, stopped requesting no-knock warrants in 2024.

In 2023, I passed legislation that significantly restricted the use of no-knock warrants in Minnesota. According to the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension’s (BCA) most recent report, their use dropped by 78% last year. This is a major victory for public safety and accountability.
