Once again, lay this squarely at the feet of the morons at the Minneapolis City Attorneys Office.
A Hennepin County judge has again ruled Minneapolis must immediately stop using its 2040 plan, which received national acclaim for its aggressive approach to building more housing and managing urban sprawl but spurred pushback from residents.

Free idea for MPD:
Send a few officers each day out in neighborhoods to ticket all the vehicles missing front plates as well as non-up-to-date registration.
Guarantee will bring in a lot

But they did not do anything, even after judge urged them, to respond on the merits (i.e., do an environmental study showing 2040 is good for environment)

ENDORSEMENT: I am thrilled to share Rep. Frank Hornstein has endorsed my candidacy for MN House in 61a. This is deeply meaningful for me, as Frank is a mentor whose collaborative and compassionate leadership is something I aspire to emulate.
