The city of Minneapolis has a responsibility to put out fires and protect its residents. The fire on Park Ave is reaching a residential area and there is a gas station nearby. For our city’s leadership to say they won’t send a firetruck is irresponsible. @MayorFrey @GovTimWalz.

It just dawned on me, my US senators are women, my US Representative is a woman, my state auditor is a woman, my county commissioner is a woman, and my Lt. Governor is a woman. Half of these women are Muslim, Indigenous, and black. Mn midterm voters made me proud! #Nostalgic.

This is the leader of the most powerful country in the world. @realDonaldTrump you should be ashamed of your actions. Your behavior and attacks to Black and Brown congresswomen is disgusting.
When @realDonaldTrump tells four American Congresswomen to go back to their countries, he reaffirms his plan to “Make America Great Again” has always been about making America white again. Our diversity is our strength and our unity is our power.

DFL leaders gathered after winning control of state government and jotted down priorities they had watched languish for a decade under divided government. In a five-month span, they have crossed almost everything off the list.

Minnesotans trusted us with their vote and gave us a trifecta. We (DFLers) must pass policies that support Minnesota families. Government should make people’s lives easier; as we have an opportunity to house the unhoused, to feed the hungry….

When we stay silent about hate and Islamophobia, we are sending a message that human decency and respect is not the expectation. Thank @IlhanMN for your courage and determination to show up everyday despite all the hate.
Fact, this buffoon looks down when she sees me at the Capitol, this whole story is made up. Sad she thinks bigotry gets her clout. Anti-Muslim bigotry isn’t funny & shouldn’t be normalized. Congress can’t be a place where hateful and dangerous Muslims tropes get no condemnation.

We’re a safer, happier, and healthier community when we allow people to show up in spaces as who they are. Lawmaking in hate, like the “don’t say gay” bill, only causes trauma and strife for our neighbors. I’m working to ensure that all of our neighbors are cared for in Minnesota.

You would think Mpls mayor would respect the work that 14-legislators of Black, Indigenious, and People of color have been doing in the last 8weeks. I guess not! Thanks @Jacob_Frey for displaying classic act of white privilege. I am just sick and tired.

Speak for yourself @paulgazelka, our community is not fine. We are in pain, pain caused by systemic racism and police brutality.
Gazelka says the Senate will not do hearings about George Floyd's death. "I think we’re fine there," Gazelka says, referencing the ongoing attorney general and Deptartment of Human Rights investigations. "Nobody’s talking about what went wrong (with rioting).".
