We had a good MPRB Committee of the Whole meeting tonight to continue learning about the org’s budget history, as well as outlining our priorities for the next 4 years. Broadly stated, those priorities are: Youth, Natural Areas, Revenue, and Finance. We’re working on specifics in coming months.

Dear community, I am calling on Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey to sign on Pause Eviction, Safe Lives. If this policy does not pass, please expect to see our vulnerable community members enter the court process.

Dear community, please help me share Mario’s story and fundraiser. On January 12, Mario was abducted by federal agents at his workplace. Mario has a partner and small children, who now have to carry both financial burdens and emotional trauma. gofund.me/9871a4eff

A community member's father was recently taken into ICE custody and is now awaiting deportation. Daisy’s family is raising funds to help cover legal fees and asking community to share their story and support them during this difficult time. gofund.me/2167c987f

Today, I spoke w/Maggie Bott and Bob Kolstad, Hennepin County Public Defenders, and Brandon Garcia, a policy aide to Minneapolis City Council President Elliot Paige to discuss how the people of Minneapolis organized to resist DHS's occupation of the city. open.spotify.com/episode/2Qf9...

Hello all, the beautiful neighbors of Northrop have organized a Northrop Minneapolis Mutual Aid Rent Fundraiser. When: Saturday, February 28, 1-4pm at McRae Park Recreation Center, 906 E 47th St, Minneapolis.

We had a full agenda for last night’s park board meeting, and I’m happy to say we moved through everything and passed all the resolutions before the board, either unanimously or by large margins. Full agenda is here: agendasuite.org/iip/mprb/mee...

Dear neighbor, Please help us try to get reach this goal. This family is a pillar in the Lake Street community. If you have ever stopped at Mercado Central, you have probably been greeted by Doña Marina (Lucerito’s Fashion) or Don Leopoldo (Dulcería la Piñata). gofund.me/60564b9c6

Hello everyone, I wanted to ask for support in amplifying this GoFundMe. ICE abducted Michelle's uncle as he was heading to work.

Dear community-We need your support! I am proud to be bringing forward a resolution alongside Commissioner Frederick to call on Governor Tim Walz to pass an eviction moratorium.

Today is February 1st. Community is organizing mutual aid as thousands of families are struggling to pay rent. As a housing navigator, youth worker, and MPRB Commissioner, I am calling on Governor Walz to enact an eviction moratorium.

At 8:31AM there were reports that Federal agents were harassing constitutional observers with tactical gear at Powderhorn Park.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning. Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

Hello, this is for a beloved community member. They've been on the ground since day one and have shown unconditional support for neighbors. Let’s show them some love💗

He was legally observing He was helping other legal observers He was helping other potential victims He was not brandishing a gun May Alex Pretti’s memory be a blessing

This morning, federal immigration agents publicly executed an observer at 26th and Nicollet Ave South. Observers are out in the community because they care about our immigrant neighbors. They do this out of love and helping keep families together. 1/

Here is the MPRB statement regarding the murder of a resident by ICE agents in the Whittier neighborhood this morning, and how it affects youth sports at nearby Whittier Rec Center. @amberforparks.bsky.social @olsenforparks.bsky.social @kayforparks.bsky.social @engy5150.bsky.social

Forever proud to be from Minneapolis. Thank you to everyone who participated today in the ICE Out of Minnesota General Strike March, from our business closing down, our schools standing in solidarity, and everyone who supported in their capacity.

Thank you all for helping keep neighbors safe. This fundraiser will help families in Phillips which is super vulnerable to immigration enforcement. This will help with the cost of rent, utilities, groceries, medical expenses, and other financial needs these families may face. gofund.me/65db13d94

ICE has been questioning hospital staff "about where they are from, commenting on their accent or that they don't look like they're from around here... my co-workers, my patients are terrified." www.kare11.com/article/news...

Today, I am thinking about my dear friend @kayforparks.bsky.social who is showing up to every park and whistling ICE out of MPRB Property, and also showing up to support families after they are kidnapped. I am so grateful for you. Thank you for advocating for the safety of our youth and families.

It’s truly beautiful to see the ways the community is showing up for our neighbors. Let’s continue supporting our immigrant owned businesses💗 Come shop, eat, work, and support!

This is important. Fill this out with the evidence you have!

I just got a call from a relative letting me know his close friend’s mother was kidnapped by ICE while she was heading to work. We’re close to our goal, but we need your help to bring Lidia Escobar Maya home. This will help with lawyer and bond fees. Working is not a crime. 💔 gofund.me/c4fd43a62

Hi all! A family is raising fund to be able to reunite them with her son. Any amount is much appreciated. Thank you!

Dear Community—Happy New Years! This evening, I was honored to be sworn in as your District 5 Park Board Commissioner. I’m also excited to co-chair the Administration and Finance Committee alongside Commissioner Forney.

Minneapolis Board and Commission applications are open from January 2 - January 25. Your voice can help shape public policy and have an impact on City services and programs. www.minneapolismn.gov/boards

Dear community, I want to acknowledge what has been a difficult and heavy month that our city has endured. The presence of Federal Agents seperating families is creating a devastating impact on our immigrant communities.

It’s a big deal that @kayforparks.bsky.social, who is 24 years of age, won her race in District 5. She challenged the status quo and beat the sitting Vice-President of the Park Board. That is no small task. 1/

Far too often, young people (esp. young women) get told they need to slow down or wait their turn. I think that’s nonsense. I’m excited to collaborate with them & advance progressive policies for THEIR generation and the following generations. This is our responsibility, and I’m happy they’re here.

Thank you to District 5 for believing in our grassroots campaign that advocates for workers’ rights, environmental justice, expansion for youth programming, and the right for all to have equitable access to safe and healthy third spaces.

On my ballot this morning, I ranked @amberforparks.bsky.social, @olsenforparks.bsky.social, @michaelforparks.bsky.social for Park Board At-Large, and @kayforparks.bsky.social for Park Board District 5! I voted for @ehbforbet.bsky.social #1 & Steve Brandt #2 for the Board of Estimate and Taxation.

This cutie was very insistent about coming to vote with me today! She is very passionate about the Minneapolis Park Board 🤣 Cast "our" ballot for @kayforparks.bsky.social and @amberforparks.bsky.social

I’m onto Ward 12 talking with renters about @aurinmpls.bsky.social @kayforparks.bsky.social and @omarfatehmn.com!

HAPPY VOTING DAY, WE VOTED!! 🗳️ I am happy to have voted for #1 @omarfatehmn.com #2 @dewayneforminneapolis.com #3 @jazzformayor.bsky.social

Hi friends! Our campaign has knocked more doors this year than we ever have before, which means we needed to emergency order more flyers. We still need to raise another $695 to be fully funded through the end of the election. Please help if you can! www.jasonchavez.org/donate

Guess where we're going!🚍🚉 This morning, I took Metro Transit line 18, which brought me straight to my destination, the Minneapolis Central Library 📚 Having accessible transportation options to libraries, schools, and parks is essential for experiencing and engaging in our community.

Dear Community, With just 10 days left until the election, every conversation and every dollar is truly appreciated. Our elections on November 4th will shape the future of our parks, and we need a District 5 commissioner who will stand up for workers, our youth, and for the environment.

Our grassroots campaign is gaining momentum, but we need your support to get across the finish line! With Election Day just 11 days away, big donors are pouring money into keeping political elites in office.

We are 14 days away from Election Day! Now more than ever we need your help in connecting with neighbors and community to share about our mission and vision for our park and city!🗳️👏🏽
