“The leaders of color I know, especially Black leaders, are exhausted, driven to burn out and despair, and often it is not because of overt racists and bigots, but by those moderates within our own sector”

$100M for the Family Homeless Prevention and Assistance Program will go along way in stabilizing housing for thousands of MN households. FHPAP is a gap housing costs program already in use that can be used to pay rent or mortgages, it just needs more funding. #Homes4AllMN #mnleg

The federal minimum wage:
2009: $7.25/hour
2020: $7.25/hour
That’s unconscionable. The House voted to raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour and it’s time the Senate does the same.
