The people of Minneapolis and Minnesota kicked Bovino out of our state and got Kristi Noem fired. We still have a long way to go but this is because of the love and resistance of our neighbors and the resiliency of our immigrant community. Jason Chavez 1/

No more evidence is needed to prove Trump is a racist, but people who continue to cling to him may have something to explain. www.cnn.com/politics/liv...

the DFL has a problem with cyndy martin holding multiple leadership roles - like CD8 chair, and CBRC and code of conduct - while facing criminal vehicular homicide charge. she doesn't appear contrite. she appears defiant. she has evaded responsibility from the start taylordahlin.com/f/the-dfls-c...

More great reporting from @taylordahlin.com taylordahlin.com/f/the-dfls-c...

It is time to let her go from the party. @taylordahlin.com is right and we as party cannot afford to have her. taylordahlin.com/f/the-dfls-c...

“How can anyone believe in the ethics of the DFL when someone like this can remain in multiple party leadership positions, especially one determining appropriate conduct in the party?” taylordahlin.com/f/the-dfls-c...

Veterans like my son, Elijah, protected our country. The least we can do is make sure they can feed their families. Trump’s policies are threatening SNAP benefits for more than 1.2 million veterans. I’m fighting to stop it. We honor service with action that has veterans’ backs.

Join me, Rep. Sencer-Mura, and Rep. @emmagreenman.bsky.social at 5:30 PM TONIGHT for a forum on Gun Violence Prevention. RSVP here⬇️ docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Tonight a resident posted a picture of racist and Islamaphobic language written on Johnson street that called for @omarfatehmn.com to be deported and wished death upon the Somali community. @doronclark.bsky.social and I showed up right away to get this racist garbage off of our streets

What Rick Kupchella, the StarTribune (owned by billionaire Glenn Taylor), Hubbard, and, seemingly the DFL executive committee, agree on is that Minneapolis is an eye sore. It has too much power and is an ongoing pain in the ass. They’re othering the state‘s largest city just like the White house.

At the Corner Café, new all-day breakfast place at George Floyd Square long in preparation. Good food! And beautiful space. Check them out!

Please join me in giving to Jason if you can. We need them to make a full recovery so they can win in November and be an awesome Park Board Commissioner!

We are a country of laws and not a king. And as it has been for every generation since our country was founded, it is on us—we the people—to hold up that democracy over a tyrant.

Community care looks like showing up for our friends. Please help @jasoncomix.bsky.social recover. I just donate, can you? gofund.me/f723949ff

Today, the Senate Working Group on Gun Violence Prevention held its first hearing today, where I presented my bill to ban assault rifles. I am so grateful to the families and the local leaders who showed up today to testify and share their experience with gun violence. (1/2)

If you’re a voter in MN you can sign onto this letter. There are increasingly less and less spaces where all people in our country, especially our neighbors who are trans feel safe and are welcomed. I refuse to be a part of a party that does not stand up for and with our trans neighbors.

Trump recently ordered the Department of the Interior to halt work on a huge wind farm. 1,000 union workers had already completed 80% of the project. Now they're fired. He made sure the oil and gas billionaires got their tax breaks, though. Happy Labor Day, I guess.

The fight for working people is personal to me. I come from a union family, I carried a union card. This Labor Day—and every day—the Democratic Party is standing up for union jobs and against these sweeping Republican attacks on working men and women.

Spent the evening on Zoom tonight with much of the Resurrection Staff from post-Katrina days. On the twentieth anniversary of disaster, and after a hard day of more tragic news, it was a powerful reminder that yes, we can make a difference.

Democratic Governors, you have to play hardball. Red states can't function without your economies. They clearly want to F around. It's find out time.

From Cooper to Standish, Howe to Minnehaha, I was proud to join neighbors on National Night Out. Ward 12 is powerful. And together, we’re building a multiracial, multigenerational coalition that’s ready to win. 1/

We didn’t just get together. we organized, we connected, and we spoke truth about what’s at stake this election: real community safety that’s comprehensive, affording our lives, and a city government that is collaborative and works for everyday people. 2/

Early voting begins in Mpls exactly six weeks from today. The Strib’s steady stream of red-baiting has already become a firehose, with major op-ed acreage allotted to both Jacob Hill AND Julius Hernandez in today’s print edition. (A caffeinated household member is furiously typing up a response)

It’s going to get worse now that Trump just unilaterally terminated collective bargaining agreements for 80k VA staff. Veterans are suffering and it’s going to get worse.

Many VA employees are veterans themselves. Canceling their union contracts is not only insulting to their service, but it’s going to make the quality of care for our veterans worse. These men and women made incredible sacrifices for our country. This is not how we repay them.

If you are lucky, you will get a helpful referral. Often you’ll get a “we don’t do that here” and a suggestion to Google it, which will 100 percent lead you to a bunch of crisis pregnancy centers near you. All the while, the clock is ticking—you just want that abortion ASAP.

What a loss. Moriarty took over in the wake of a major crime spike and stuck to her promises. She had hard calls to make, was severely undermined from within and without, and took some tough beats because she was willing to go after tough cases. She got so little help. I admire her greatly.

ilhan omar offered so much support and resources to the minneapolis caucuses and conventions by spending thousands of dollars for translators to make them more accessible and representative of our population. she cares about the process and CD5 residents even in her election off years

there was some miscommunication about food at 2024 SD60 DFL convention, and when Ilhan heard Edison cross country didn’t sell all their concessions, she bought all of them. ilhan is FOR the ppl, for our neighbors, and for our public schools.

Join us out on the doors to reach neighbors across Ward 12! We’ll be meeting this Saturday, July 26th, 1:00pm at Longfellow Park (3435 36th Ave S). Team Aurin is hosting two weekly summer door knocks, every Tuesday & Saturday. Sign up: www.mobilize.us/aurinchowdhuryforminneapoliscitycouncilward12/

Hey everyone, my friend Andre is hosting a bbq fundraiser for my campaign this weekend. RSVP for address and more info: actionnetwork.org/events/fundr...

While I am not a member of DSA, I did talk to a friend who is today. Apparently, at their last meeting, 9 new young people showed up to join. All of whom attended the DFL Ward 2 convention and felt unwelcome by the party. So to DFL'ers who hate DSA: We are losing young people because of YOU

USPS doesn’t “lose” money. It costs money. It’s a service that benefits everyone. In a rational country, we wouldn’t even need to explain to grown adults how public services work, or why it’s a terrible idea to erode them.

In a month or so, they'll be confit de fruit.
