I stand with every student who walked out of school today. But they shouldn’t have had to. We shouldn’t be asking teens to do more for gun reform than Congress. Kids deserve classrooms, not caution drills. They deserve to learn—not protest for their lives. startribune.com/live-minnesota…

Absent while on a full year paid fellowship in Harvard while still getting his full paycheck as a sitting Minneapolis City Council member. Ellison tells our reporter there’s nothing remarkable about it, though.

KSTP checked city council committee hearings and full city council meetings since Aug. 11. In that time, Ellison has been marked absent from meetings eight times. kstp.com/kstp-news/top-…

My fellow mayors and I are asking the Minnesota Legislature to give cities the power to act on gun reform. If a divided Legislature can’t — or won’t — get it done, then they should let cities lead.

In the days since the Annunciation shooting, we’ve seen a deliberate effort to smear those calling for action as if they were mocking prayer. Nothing could be further from the truth. To refuse to act in the face of this evil is the real betrayal of faith. blueprint.democrats.org/p/ken-martin-o…

Passing gun reforms can save lives. Thoughts and prayers are good, but they're not a substitute for action.

This is the right thing to do — we can't wait till January. Assault weapons and high capacity magazines make mass shootings even deadlier. They don't belong on our streets.

In Judaism, under תִּיקּוּן עוֹלָם ("Heal the World"), we are taught that prayer is necessary, but not sufficient. Elected leaders cannot use prayers alone to let ourselves off the hook for our own inaction.

Every child deserves to feel and be safe. Every family deserves peace of mind. In Minneapolis, we’re demanding stronger gun laws — and we won’t settle for less.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey calls for state and federal ban on assault weapons, ban on high-capacity magazines. "There is no reason somebody should be able to reel off 30 rounds before they even have to reload," he says at City Hall.

Thank you @GovTimWalz for sending additional law enforcement resources to patrol and protect our schools, places of worship, and neighborhoods. In the wake of yesterday's horrifying school shooting, we are grateful for your partnership in keeping our city safe.

Thoughts and prayers are appreciated. But they are not enough. It's important to talk about doing the right thing, but more importantly, we have to act.

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.

There are no words that can capture the horror and tragedy of the unspeakable act of evil at Annunciation Catholic Church. Children have been killed, more are injured, our community is shaken. Right now, our entire city needs to wrap these families in love and support.

I'm monitoring reports of horrific violence in South Minneapolis. I'm in touch with Chief O'Hara and our emergency response team has been activated. We will share more information as soon as we can. Please give our officers the space they need to respond to the situation.

Minneapolis is one of the few major cities to reduce unsheltered homelessness since the pandemic. We’ve connected more people to permanent housing & shelter, but there’s more to do: expand Stable Homes Stable Schools and build more deeply affordable housing.
