The panel will be facilitated by Saint Paul Council Member HwaJeong Kim, and the panelists myself, and many more community leaders. Hope to see you there!

The rise of mass surveillance goes far beyond Flock cameras and drones. Come hear from local experts about the ever-increasing use of surveillance technologies, its impacts, and how we can organize to protect our rights and our neighbors. Registration link is in the bio!

Minneapolis residents deserve an affordable, accessible, and sustainable transportation system that helps us achieve our city’s transit and climate goals. I’ll continue working to advance these commitments and keep residents informed as we identify next steps.

I’m currently working with City staff to better understand what led to this decision, identify immediate actions we can take to support impacted residents, and explore opportunities to preserve and expand critical transportation options for our communities.

As Chair of the City’s Climate & Infrastructure Committee, I remain committed to building a Minneapolis transportation system that is affordable, accessible, and equitable; one that reduces our dependence on personal vehicles, expands mobility for working-class residents.

I learned yesterday that HOURCAR will be ending operations on October 15, thus leaving 4,000 members without access to this transit option. This news is especially disappointing given that the committed funding in August to help sustain this essential service.

Our neighborhood schools are worth fighting for. Let’s protect them!

2. Get organized with your neighbors! Connect with your local community groups and neighborhood associations. The Prospect Park Association is actively supporting residents fighting to save Pratt Elementary, while Minnesota Families for Public Schools is organizing parents and students citywide.

Here’s how you can take action: 1. Contact your elected officials! Tell them to stand with MPS students and families and oppose rushed school closures. Start by signing and sharing the petition in the bio!

I’m joining neighbors in fighting to protect Pratt and calling on MPS to delay these harmful proposals. On October 15, my City Council colleagues and I will bring forward a resolution calling on the MPS School Board to delay any decision on the proposed school closures.

Minneapolis Public Schools is considering closing 15–16 schools, including Pratt. Our students, families, and educators deserve community investment, not rushed closures that tear apart our neighborhoods. Pratt Elementary is a beloved neighborhood institution. Now, its future is at risk.

Differences in housing policy post-Surge couldn't be more stark. Both councils passed a temporary 60-day notice requirement for nonpayment evictions. Minneapolis: the mayor vetoed and council centrists refused to override. On pace for record evictions. St. Paul passed it veto-proof. Down 15% YOY

Our communities deserve real public safety, not mass surveillance that puts our neighbors at risk. This is what happens when residents and students organize and demand change!

After months of community pressure, the U of M has finally committed to removing its existing cameras. Now we must hold them accountable to that promise!

That’s why I’m proud to have worked alongside CMs Chavez, Stevenson, and Osman to pass a City Council resolution calling on the University of Minnesota Police Department and Hennepin County Sheriff’s Office to remove ALL Flock cameras across Minneapolis.

Flock surveillance cameras have no place in Minneapolis! With reports of ICE accessing Flock-collected data, these surveillance tools pose serious threats to our privacy, civil liberties, and immigrant communities.

Tax the rich. Fund the public good. Make Minneapolis more affordable for everyone.

Imagine what we could do with that revenue: free childcare for Minneapolis families, a citywide municipal sidewalk plowing pilot, significantly more affordable housing, and other public goods that actually lower the cost of everyday life. These aren’t unrealistic demands.
