In America, you rise based on your own merit - you fall based on your own flaws. Individuals should be held accountable for their own decisions - not a whole community.

Here in Minneapolis, we are united. We will always stand up for our neighbors, no matter who they are, where they come from, what they worship, or who they love.

No Kings.

Minneapolis is united for our neighbors, united for our democracy.

Today is one of my favorite days of the year. The Twin Cities Marathon opened my eyes to just how beautiful this place is, and years later, I’m lucky to still call it home.

To every runner, volunteer, race coordinator, and supporter out there today: good luck and have fun!

Many members of our East African community came to Minneapolis as immigrants or refugees, but now they are the entrepreneurs and neighborhood leaders who have helped fuel our city's comeback.

Organizing in our immigrant communities starts with showing up, and I had a blast at this rally tonight with our East African community.

I am honored to have earned former US Attorney Andy Luger's endorsement.

No one has been more committed to taking on violent crime and rooting out fraud and corruption from our social safety net. His pursuit of justice has made Minneapolis a safer city for all.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey: "Anybody who is using this as an opportunity to villainize trans people has completely lost touch with the common humanity."

BREAKING: Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey JUST CALLED FOR a statewide and federal ban on assault weapons.

Who’s with him?

Those using this tragedy as an opportunity to vilianize the trans community, or any community, have lost sight of our shared humanity. Children died today. We shouldn't be operating out of a place of hate for anyone. We should be operating from a place of love for our kids.

All of our kids should be able to go to school or church without the fear of gun violence.

Don't just say we need thoughts and prayers. These kids were literally in a church praying.

Don't just think of them just as someone else's kids. Think of them as your own.

Over 50% of our contributors are small dollar donors β€” and with their support, we just broke the all-time fundraising record for a Minneapolis mayoral campaign.

The workers of @liunamnnd.bsky.social keep our city running β€” our streets and bridges would literally fall apart without them, and they are the backbone of core services like snow removal and trash pickup. I am honored to earn their support!

Senator Omar Fateh is a proud American who is running because, like me, he loves Minneapolis. I’m proud that Minneapolis is a place where he can run for mayor against me on his own merits β€” and that this kind of bigotry is widely rejected across our great city.

Last night, I had the chance to talk with neighbors in S MPLS about how we move our city forward.

Thanks to everyone who came out to discuss how we can build more affordable housing, keep reducing violent crime, and tackle rising property taxes through responsible budgeting.

Pride weekend in Minneapolis is pure magic. No city does a better job of proudly celebrating love and equality more than Minneapolis.

The Supreme Court just greenlit a right-wing push to defund Planned Parenthood. In Minneapolis, we've taken action to protect and expand access to abortion care so that we remain a safe haven for reproductive freedom.

Some snapshots from the NE parade last week. The energy in this city is real, and you can feel it in every neighborhood. Minneapolis is on the rise. Let's keep moving forward, together.

When Roe v. Wade was overturned 3 years ago today, Minneapolis didn't sit on the sidelines while women lost their freedoms β€” we took action to protect and expand access to abortion. We're a safe haven for abortion rights, and we're going to keep it that way.

The men and women of our Building Trades unions quite literally built this city. To keep our city affordable, we're going to need their help to build more housing. I'm looking forward to working with them to get that done, and I'm honored to have their support.

Father’s Day hits differently this year.

My commitment to you is simple: I will fight relentlessly to defend our communities from this administration’s efforts to tear them apart. And I will counter their efforts to sow fear and chaos in Minneapolis with facts and evidence, not panic and confusion.

Pride Month is hereβ€”a time to celebrate love, resilience, and the progress of our LGBTQ+ community. Minneapolis is proud to host one of the nation’s oldest Pride celebrations, and we’ll keep pushing for inclusion and equity. Can’t wait to celebrate with all of you! πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ

Many Latino businesses along E Lake Street are seeing declined sales because, fearing the unknown of deportation, their usual customer base is more tentative to go out and shop. But you can help by shopping at these amazing businesses! These are our neighbors, our community, and we can support them.

I’m honored to receive the Moms Demand Action Gun Sense Candidate distinction. For years, I’ve partnered with Moms Demand Action and Everytown to champion common‑sense reformsβ€”like universal background checks and red‑flag laws β€” to get dangerous weapons off our streets.
