I had a great time at the Chaska River City Days parade this evening with the SW Metro SD 48 DFL. Huge thanks to Elise Boll, her daughters, and Andie for wearing their campaign shirts and walking in the parade. The orange shirts POP and are SO soft! Let us know if you want one.

Wow. I went to the Brandondale Residents' Association meeting last night, and it was deeply upsetting and troubling. I listened to our neighbors talk about what has happened since an out-of-state private equity company, Havenpark Communities, bought their neighborhood. #mnleg

With the SC's ruling on Little v. Hecox, we're looking at a different landscape for sports at every level. It’s a complex issue with a lot of strong viewpoints, but regardless of where the law stands, our baseline doesn't change: everyone deserves to be treated with dignity, fairness, and respect.
