Peak bloom could occur as soon as tomorrow or Thursday as temperature bounce back to near 60 and then 70+! Great days to check them out if you can brave the crowds.

Read this. The Minnesota state prison system suggests Gregory Bovino outright lied about the target of the operation during which agents shot and killed Alex Pretti.

NEWS — Schumer says Senate Dems will block funding bill over DHS/ICE

To be clear about what this depicts: An immigration officer threw a woman onto the ground. Alex Pretti, a registered nurse on scene as a legal observer, is filming and goes to help the woman up. He is then pepper sprayed and thrown to the ground for no discernible reason. Many officer surround and assault him; one removes his firearm, which police say appears to have been legally registered. They then execute him with a hail of bullets. They are, objectively speaking, both cowards and criminals, while Pretti is what we teach people an American ought to be.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening. The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

ICE is murdering citizens with impunity—please open your eyes. Is there any line anymore that will stop this descent into a dictatorship?

Drop Site obtained harrowing footage of the latest killing which appears to be from the perspective of the woman in pink filming from the sidewalk

Another brutal killing by Trump’s ICE agents. Trump, Vance, Noem, Miller, & the whole morally depraved crew have blood on their hands. These killings are happening at their direction. They must be held accountable. Congress must cut-off funding for these heinous acts NOW!

ICE agents pointed their weapons at a Minnesota police officer who’s an American citizen. She tried to film the encounter and they knocked her phone out of her hand.

Great leadership on a critical program for affordable housing.

As American families from the heartland to the coasts struggle with a national housing affordability crisis, @USRepMikeFlood and I are hosting a press conference to highlight major reforms to the HOME Program that will help lower costs. Watch here: twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

Scoop: The Trump administration has rescinded layoff notices sent to all employees of the Community Development Financial Institution Fund last month, according to emails we obtained. CDFI Fund employees were told this AM RIFs have been rescinded. PBN texts had it first >>>

News in the PM edition: Sen. Mike Crapo (R-Idaho) told me he would partner with Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.) to defend the CDFI Fund since the Trump admin set up all its employees for layoffs. Crapo said he’d work to “see if we can get that decision changed.” >>>>

Housing Affordability Summit hosted by @RepJimmyGomez today! Proud to have Pat Cave on the panel to discuss @EnterpriseNow’s work on LIHTC and zoning changes that could help grow production. Thanks to @RepAuchincloss for the thought -provoking questions and discussion.

Today AHTCC's @EmilyCadik joined @RepJimmyGomez for the first National Housing Affordability Crisis Summit. Thank you, @RepJimmyGomez for hosting & leading the conversation on the crucial role the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit plays in addressing the affordable housing crisis.

Powerful reminder on infectious optimism in our @EnterpriseNow retreat. Shaun Donovan tells us hope is not blind optimism, sharing the quote from his former boss POTUS @BarackObama. We have a lot of opportunity and work to address our housing shortage.

Listening to @EnterpriseNow second CEO Bart Harvey recount his work building communities with our founder Jim Rouse, including the creation of the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit.

The House’s budget resolution proposes deep cuts, potentially harming vital funding for affordable housing. We must advocate against harmful cuts AND fight for housing and community development tax resources for America's working families. bit.ly/4hWuz5l

“These cuts are not benefiting the community whatsoever. They are ending programs and services for American citizens.” Jonathan Green, executive director of Steps Coalition in Gulfport, Mississippi, shares the impact of #Section4 grants on small, rural communities.
