Might someone say so?
Someone just did....

I have two friends who ran the half marathon and raved about how pleasant it was. Live bands all along the way, people cheering them on :-) I can't believe the people buying the "war ravaged" story.

Prayers and best wishes for a smooth and speedy recovery, Ms. Davis, you will be missed on the MPR airwaves!! I appreciate @angeladavismpr.bsky.social so much -- her interviews are SO engaging, informative, far-ranging, and compassionate.

HURRAH for health care providers speaking out to resist the degradation of science and public health. #lfg

Signs from today’s Don’t Look Away Rally at the Minnesota capitol, where @momsdemand.bsky.social and @studentsdemand.bsky.social volunteers and survivors urged their lawmakers to call a special session to ban assault weapons.

🚨BIG NEWS:🚨

Minnesota Democrats just unveiled our proposal for a possible special session. Our plan would:

✅Ban assault weapons
✅Ban high-capacity magazines
✅Ban binary triggers
✅Implement 'safe storage' rules
✅Ban untraceable 'ghost guns'
✅Strengthen MN's red flag law

From @momsdemand.bsky.social "If you reside in Minnesota, text MN to 644-33 to tell key lawmakers to hold a special session to ban assault weapons!"

TEXT MN to 644-33 to demand action:
Make the gun lobby STOP killing our kids & our friends.

Despite the fact that 60 percent of Minnesota voters believe the legislature should take immediate action to ban assault weapons, Republicans in the Minnesota House are refusing to allow a special session proposed by Democrats and Governor Walz to proceed.

Text card: Listen for dangerous words. Be alert to the use of the words extremism and terrorism. Be alive to the fatal notions of emergency and exception. Be angry about the treacherous use of patriotic vocabulary. #OnTyranny

One of the lessons I discuss in "On Tyranny":
Listen for dangerous words.

The Senate DFL has been working to find compromises to prevent gun violence and protect our communities. We need Republicans to come to the table. #specialsession #gunviolenceprevention #mnleg

Well #mnleg GOP? Will you step up and do what Minnesotans are demanding?

DFLers in the Legislature today released a special session proposal including specific action on guns and bipartisan proposals on school safety, additional mental health resources, and new funding for law enforcement. The proposal can be found here: content.govdelivery.com/attachments/... #mnleg

What's the shutdown for?
Why can't Dems just comply? Because:
Dems don't want you to die.

We got an affordable healthcare system 10 years ago but Republicans want to gut it so big bosses
can make more profit.
#ThatsNotFair

ICYMI - this is the follow up press conference from the #mnleg #Minnesota #gun violence working Group

I would take every single one of everybody's effing guns away, they make all of us less safe,
but these folks are smarter than me. Holding them accountable as such.

Feds reject Rochester Public Schools’ appeal for mental health grant, citing DEI Rochester’s superintendent had pleaded with the government to restore the grant, arguing the funding was critical to addressing the district’s mental health needs.

Ridiculous.

Republicans say more student mental health support is key to reducing school shootings, yet refuse to fund programs doing just that. Make it make sense. #mnleg #edmnvotes

I f**king HATE guns.
I have treated multiple children for gunshot brain injuries. I had two former patients gunned down in the streets. My 18-year-old nephew committed suicide by gunshot to the head. And I know 3 people who've done time for teen gun crimes that'll take a lifetime to amend. #mnleg

#mnleg House GOP: We take school safety seriously!

Also GOP: We want certified quacks to be able to psychologically torture kids until they think they aren’t gay anymore.

Tell your Minnesota Lawmakers: Pass a Ban on Assault Weapons and High-Capacity Magazines! Take action to support stronger gun laws in Minnesota.

I just urged Governor Walz and my MN lawmakers to hold a special session and pass a ban on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. Join me: bit.ly/47mBCCa #MNLeg @momsdemand

Multiple Minnesota programs are losing federal funding for school mental health grants Programs run by the University of Minnesota and Rochester Public Schools will no longer be funded under the Trump administration.

So, which is it?

Do Republicans want more funding for school-based mental health programs or not? Because you can't say one thing and do another here, guys. 🤦 #mnleg #edmnvotes

Maybe it’s just too damn easy for people who want to hurt others to get guns? #mnleg

Gun violence is gun violence. It is tragic and preventable no matter who the victim.

Our deepest sympathies to the family of Charlie Kirk and others injured and killed by gun violence today.

I join the urgent call for an #MNLeg Special Session to pass gun safety legislation.

Done. Thank you!

Going into this special session to combat gun violence, i got this form from my state senator to share my personal experience with gun violence. Well, I don't have any, but if you do or know someone who does, maybe you want to let #MNLeg know about it
