I am excited about this partnership with Hennepin County and DPS to bring free gun locks to some Hennepin County Libraries. Please safely store your gun so children can’t find it and accidentally harm themselves or others.

I am proud of our team that analyzes “gone on arrivals” and reaches out to victims to see what support they need. kstp.com/kstp-news/top-…

.Mary Moriarty is a brilliant & fair prosecutor committed to reforming our deeply flawed legal system. The Trump Admin’s recently-launched investigation into Moriarty’s office is a calculated attack on local democracy. Full statement: localprog.org/StandWithLocal…
