This Pride Month, we celebrate trans joy & we recommit to trans liberation! MN is a trans refuge state. That is something to be proud of. But pride w/o action is just a word. We must fight to protect our trans neighbors, affirm healthcare, & reject all discrimination. Join us. Show up. Fight back.

It’s time to Celebrate Northeast Minneapolis! Join @doronclark.bsky.social @elliottpayne.org and DFL organizers for the Celebrate Northeast Parade on Tuesday, June 13, 2026. Sign up today to march with Doron & Elliott in the parade! mobilize.us/s/D3tCIc 🏳️‍⚧️ 🏳️‍🌈 🇺🇸

I am extremely proud these four people represent us.

Good morning, Rochester! Let’s go!

Khalid Abdi was a beloved husband, son, brother, and community member. Khalid’s life was rooted in service: helping others, advocating for dignity; supporting Minnesotans in building better lives. Please join me in supporting the family of Khalid Abdi: LaunchGood.com/KhalidAbdi

Eid Mubarak to all who share this beautiful day! May this Eid strengthen the bridges we build across faith, family, and friendship.

There are many reasons to take transit, says one rider. One of which is the cost - with high gas prices, there's no way driving can compete with taking the bus! #TransitTakesTuesday

George Floyd should be alive today. On the anniversary of his murder, our hearts break for his family and community. Nothing will bring George Floyd back to his loved ones – to his little girl, Gianna. But there is work left for all of us to do.

Whether you are post run or in need of Saturday coffee, get to the Northeast Farmers Market. Open 9-1:00 each Saturday. Asparagus, radishes, and rhubarb seem to be the main veggie attraction today!

Momo news!

Go Lynx!

Per another parent, I am a track nerd.

Proud of Minnesota for doing this, feeling good about our law

Let’s do this.

Rolling out sine die!

Senate Passes a $1.2 billion infrastructure and jobs bill that invests in Minnesota’s water and sewer systems, roads and highways, public colleges and universities and much more! #mnleg

Getting the business of Minnesota done! Today is the last day of the Minnesota legislative session as we need to be done at 11:59:59 Sunday night. We still have taxes, the HCMC fix, bonding, and DNR funding to go. 7 hours to go!

I love ArtAWhirl Day 3. It’s quieter, great day to hit the large studio buildings. Today is for the cool weather lovers. It’s going to be cloudy all day. Moody day for Art! Free bus ride: nemaa.org/art-a-whirl/...

The weather is perfect today for Art-A-Whirl! Come on down and enjoy the largest open studio tour in the country. See you on Quincy street!! nemaa.org/art-a-whirl/

Good news: Minor children can no longer be listed on eviction notices! I’ve heard from too many young adults surprised to learn that they failed a background check due to being listed on an eviction notice as a child. Now what should be common sense is law as my bill ends that practice.

Art-A-Whirl! May 15-17 brings a spotlight on the Northeast Minneapolis Arts District and our many, many artists. Start the weekend at Edison High School track with the Tommie’s Tonight benefit concert starring Nur-D. Joy the fun and raise some money for Edison High School activities!

Listen to Elle: walking and biking is an excellent way to experience Art a Whirl. Plus, the artists will happily hold your purchases for you to pick up later.

I live just north of the main HIGHLY CONGESTED area where art a whirl happens. AVOID DRIVING AT ALL COSTS. You will be pissed off if you drive and you will piss off everyone around you.

Rent relief passes! Today, the Senate passed identical language as the House meaning the $40 million rent relief package is headed to the Governor desk for his signature. Thanks for helping get this done through your continued advocacy. $40M for rent relief passed!

School funding is vital. Thanks for continuing to push to prioritize compensatory aid. With it, we will keep more educators in the halls and classrooms of our schools helping the students who need it most. Keep pushing your legislators to prioritize compensatory aid.

Thanks for your leadership Senator Fateh and Senator Latz! Your work makes Minnesota better.

Minnesotans know the harm caused by President Trump’s disastrous ICE incursion. Today, the Minnesota Senate took a step to bring Minnesotans justice - especially Renee Good, Alex Pretti, and Liam Conejo Ramos. The bill bans ICE from schools, day cares, and hospitals and (1/2)

Mother’s Day at Maya! Great to be able to celebrate on Central Ave after everything our community has been though this year.

NUR-D stars at the Edison Benefit Concert Friday May 15 at 6PM. That’s right, @Nur-D will be at Edison High School. Since NUR-D will be there, that means you need to be there. Plus, it’s for the kids. facebook.com/events/s/tom...

Northside! We don’t know what the regime will do around elections, but we do know it’s something. Monarca is offering a chance to gather with neighbors and make a community plan. Sat 6/13 at 10am Camden neighborhood secure.ngpvan.com/k-8UgfeYHkGc...

For decades we’ve had school shootings and seen government do nothing. I’m proud that today we passed my bill to ban assault weapons for the first time in MN history. We can never bring back Harper & Fletcher, but today we can say we did all we could to make sure no family endures this ever again.

Gun violence and its effects haunt me. Today, Minnesota Senate DFLers passed a comprehensive bill that: 1) Keeps the most dangerous guns off our streets 2) Funds mental health intervention and prevention 3) Funds school safety aid 4) Enhances responsible ownership safety laws My Senate speech:

Glad we both crossed the river to celebrate May Day! We all needed it.

Happy May Day!

Before or after the parade, add Mercado Central to your day. They’ve been through hell and need our support. Tacos, empanadas, and delicious strawberry milkshakes!

Continuing this beautiful neighborhood day here in Minneapolis at the Lower Northeast Neighborhood Association annual meeting at Sociable!

I agree! A fine day to do all the things in Minneapolis.

Our kids walked to prom last night. Love that for them.

Operation Metro Surge devastated life on Central Ave in Northeast Minneapolis and disrupted MN’s economy. I’m focused on keeping our small businesses open and the Mn Senate economic relief package helps businesses that lost 30% or more of their revenue get back on their feet. #operationmetrosurge

We must keep HCMC (Hennepin Healthcare) open! Today, the Minnesota Senate passed a bill to provide direct funding to HCMC to offset the huge funding cut caused by Trump’s budget bill. I’m committed to strengthening HCMC and mitigating Trump’s disastrous cuts.

Hotdish Revolution brings the people and the flavors out in Holland neighborhood in Northeast Minneapolis! Great work Holland Neighborhood Improvement Association! You’ve created and sustained an institution like no other and fill it with the joy and silliness we need right now.

Met two remarkable people at the Kiwanis/Northeast Lions pancake fundraiser Sunday morning: 1) John - one of the two pencil sharpeners of the Lake of the Isles pencil. Visit this silly spectacle June 6! 2) The mayor of Columbia Heights: Amáda Márquez Simula. Thanks for letting me join your table!

Having a great discussion this afternoon with our constituents at coffee with Senator @doronclark.bsky.social

From protecting the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness to investing in clean energy, the DFL is committed to celebrating Earth Day every day.

Out of state corporate investors keep buying up Minnesota's manufactured home parks and then hiking up rents to increase profits, making it unaffordable for our neighbors. We're holding these exploitative corporations accountable by passing the Manufactured Home Owners' Bill of Rights. #mn #housing

Ice is still here just operating in different ways, like doing kidnappings on a Sunday night at 10 PM. Make sure you’re still connected to hyper local networks so you’re able to respond when neighbors need help.

Someone was taken near 20th & Central tonight at 10 PM. Within 5 minutes, there were over 20 people on a call and even more people on foot in the area to respond.

From Faribault to Fertile to Farmington, the DFL has strong candidates for State Senate. With Senator @lizboldonmn.bsky.social, I lead the DFL State Senate recruiting campaign and travel the state helping candidates. Pitch in to help: secure.actblue.com/donate/clark...

Thank you so much to these incredible elected officials for all they did and are continuing to do for our community, but let’s also take a moment to appreciate @doronclark.bsky.social ‘s top tier ‘Disappointed Dad’ energy here. 😂
