As a cis gay man, he's been really great about my pronouns and about understanding trans issues. I feel heard by him.
I waffled for a LONG time about who to rank number 1, because Fateh has been serving as my senator in SD62, and I'm really happy with his work. His organizing skill is unmatched.

really solid day today. Very good to spend time with my neighbors in SD62 talking about issues facing Minneapolis and trans people in particular (one of the people who showed up has a trans kid!).

The Progressive Caucus, Stonewall DFL, Mpls Senior Caucus, Minneapolis DFL, SD62, and SD63 are definitely much better than this, as are other units! But many are controlled by folks who have no interest in progressive values.

Truly astonishing to see @JoshMartinMpls at work. This is a performance equal parts athletic and intellectual, like the chessboxers of yore. #SD62

One of the best parts of my job is my annual Christmas Card Contest!
I asked some SD62 students to design artwork for the front of my cards, and, as always, I’m blown away by their creativity. Tough decision this year—I may have to pick two! Stay tuned for the final designs! #SD62

As a teacher, SD62 shutting down their school police liaison officer program makes me more interested in working there.
Police presence in schools makes me deeply uncomfortable, and I'm a white male with no police history.
If you want to improve schools, try hiring qualified staff instead?

We also have new info today: ministry sent Shannon some of the info it's relying on
This info includes parental & admin concerns/reports + sd 61 having more of various incident reports, tips, etc than 62 or 63.
A clear flaw: sd61 has 20k students, vs sd62's 14k & sd63's 8k
