I think about this a lot. These results arenāt derived from some flashy (or fashy) program, but the result of smart and effective leadership. Itās one reason why
@melvincarter.bsky.social

We treat every non-fatal shooting in Saint Paul with the same urgency as a homicide. Weāre solving more cases, cutting crime by double digits, and producing a record-low homicide rateāproving this action-driven approach creates safer outcomes.

St. Paul solved more crimes, had drastically fewer homicides in 2025
A remarkable shift is under way in St. Paul. The city is on track for a 70 percent drop in homicides by the end of 2025. And theyāre solving more than 70 percent of crimes.

A federal judge blocked the Trump administration from withholding critical grant dollars from Saint Paul and 10 other jurisdictions. The court affirmed what weāve always known: a president cannot hold hostage funding to force compliance with a political agenda.

Iām sickened by the murder of Charlie Kirk; his family is in my prayers. Political violence is destroying us. America was built on the right to speak without fear of retribution. Consoling words arenāt enough. Our leaders must actively reject the idea that those with differing views are the enemy.
