True public safety requires a collaboration between law enforcement and the community.
Donald Trump is out to destroy people's lives, and he's trying to take our democracy down. That is something we can fight with everything we've got, but having compassion for one another while we do it is going to get us a lot further.
We can only have true public safety with public trust.
What does it mean to have a mayor who has an organizing background? It means I have allies and partners on whom I can call for advice - and that are also holding my feet to the fire already.

Professional people build relationships by doing the work together.
My first and foremost consideration is the safety of the people of the city of Minneapolis. And my first and foremost consideration is making sure that people can also express their constitutional rights peaceably.

I thank the officers of the Minneapolis Police Department, who work hard every day to help people in their most vulnerable moments, keep our communities safe, and build relationships and trust with the public.

Human-induced climate change is a scientific reality, and its effective control is a moral imperative for humanity.
