I do not think it is an exaggeration to say that hundreds of thousands of dollars are being redistributed through informal/semiformal mutual aid networks so residents can pay rent tomorrow. This is not sustainable. @governorwalz.mn.gov, please take action for MN with an eviction moratorium now.

About Teen Vogue, I don't read or care much for a lot of mainstream media, but Teen Vogue is the only consistent non-Native media outlet that has always done an incredible job reporting on Native issues and giving our talent a platform to shine and not just to fill their "diversity" quota.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
