I remember sitting in the chemo infusion chair watching this happen as I was battling stage 2 Hodgkin’s lymphoma. This is why we have to keep fighting, no one’s healthcare access should ever be jeopardized but that’s exactly what Trump has tried to do/will do again if elected.

Today is the anniversary of Senator John McCain’s thumbs down vote on “skinny repeal”, which ended (that time) the GOP’s attempts to dismantle the Affordable Care Act. I’m a stage 4 cancer survivor and Obamacare saved my life. We cannot go back.

Climate change has disproportionately impacted the people least responsible for the problem, namely low-income communities and communities of color.
By investing new funding in clean energy jobs for underserved communities, we’re taking a small step toward climate justice.

I’m writing this devastating update regarding the future of the East Phillips Urban Farm and its uncertain future once again. While the community held its end of the bargain with the $3.7M cash escrow deposit, the State Legislature was unable to fulfill its pledge. 1/

A late night on the #mnleg House floor but it was worth it to pass the Minnesota Voting Rights Act and a great omnibus elections bill that ends prison gerrymandering, expands early voting to voters on campus, and requires the disclosure of spending on dark money political ads.

@aaronklemz @PeterFischerMN This does seem really wrong to me too. Let’s change this!

I'll always be astounded that MN law allows trappers to enter somebody else's private property and leave snare and body-gripping traps and they aren't even required to get permission or even inform the property owner. @PeterFischerMN has been trying to change this for years.
