Today and every day, we're proud to celebrate the culture and contributions of Indigenous communities across Minnesota.

Happy Indigenous Peoples' Day!

Cheers! Anoka Social District to stay open year-round Grab your hat and parka, slip into those gloves and have a beer, will ya? The Anoka Social District is now open year-round, even in the dead of Minnesota winter.

Great news: the Anoka Social District is now year-round!

I was proud to author the bill that authorized the social district in 2022, and I'm even prouder to see it grow and succeed like this.

The good news is that the bill is DOA on the House floor, where Republicans do not have to votes to enact such cruelty.

GOP members of the House Tax Committee voted unanimously for these cuts. DFL members were unanimously opposed. The amendment passed because the Tax Committee has a temporary 1 seat GOP advantage.

Here is the full spreadsheet for folks’ reference. You can see the current funding is $1.48 million in 2026/27 and $2.529 in 2028/29. Republicans voted to cut that funding completely.

The chaos and cold-heartedness of the Trump/Musk GOP isn’t limited to Washington. MN House Republicans just voted to ZERO OUT funding for Meals on Wheels.

Instead of spending even more time and money on lawsuits benefiting Rep. Niska’s law partners, House GOP should join us in negotiations to reach a co-governing agreement that honors the will of the voters of Shakopee and the voters of MN.

Total votes for DFL State House candidates in 2024: 1,545,213. Total votes for GOP candidates: 1,530,797. DFL won 67 seats, GOP won 67 seats.

The DFL position is that the parties should share power when it’s 67-67. GOP position is that they should have total control. Who is being reasonable here?
