Had a wonderful meetup w/ Chaska mayor Taylor Hubbard this morning. We met as professional photographers, now we both serve our cities as electeds! Shout out to Red Bench Bakery for tempting me into buying these treats - most of them made it home without being devoured in the car! 😝

I personally benefited from this program in 2024 and I now have a pollinator friendly front yard. I have sent emails to all 3 of my district representatives - find yours here: www.gis.lcc.mn.gov/iMaps/distri... & let them know to support this funding! Action letter: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Anyone who attended last night's Hopkins State of the City can agree - what fun!! Thank you to the all who worked to put this together! Being in community, having a few laughs, & a mouthful of fire for those of us in the HOT seat - was so needed. 2025 will be our greatest year yet! #ThinkHopkins

People of Bluesky: The brave Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde who addressed Trump in her sermon yesterday has a book & I intend to buy it from an amazing queer books/beer/coffee shop (@creamandamber.bsky.social) in my city (Hopkins MN). Here's the link: creamandamber.com/book/9780593...

Because the main defense against the Trump administration will be in the courts, I have renewed my membership to the ACLU. Please give generously to this organization. Become a member of the ACLU-MN action.aclu.org/give/minneso...

Buried in the flurry of Executive Orders last night is one that halts all funding from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. Yes, the law that Republicans and Democrats came together to pass that fixes our roads, modernizes old bridges and makes drinking water safer.

What a wonderful morning honoring a man worth celebrating, at the 39th annual MLK Day Celebration in St. Paul. As always, I was happy to join my Council sisters Kimberly Wilburn and Sue Budd. Thank you, Governor's Council for your work to make this program a success, it was a lovely event! #MLK

A generation plagued with the fear of near constant school shootings just watched the federal government ban a silly video app while AR-15’s are still widely available for sale. I think young people are going to remember this moment for a long time.

Besides the price of eggs (🙄) one of the main things MAGA says "made them vote Trump" is DEI; Diversity, Equity, Inclusion. Ask them why Diversity, Equity, and Inslusion is bad. What you'll hear is a either outright racist, or a really bad attempt to not sound racist, while sounding REALLY racist.
