The Lakes and Pines Community Action Council works everyday to fight poverty in rural areas. I joined Mayor Mathison and other local leaders to see their Mora facility and discuss ways to support their work serving the community.

Honored to show @LtGovFlanagan Spring Creek II Townhomes. Our latest townhome development in Northfield, MN.
Replying to @LtGovFlanagan
The newly built Spring Creek II townhomes in Northfield – safe, high-quality, affordable family housing – are a powerful example of what that funding looks like in action.

Safe and affordable housing is central to making Minnesota the best state for kids to grow up in.   Yesterday, I signed a bill providing $50 million in funding for homelessness prevention and assistance – because housing is a basic need that every Minnesotan deserves access to.
