“We’re in a moment at a crossroads in the city, and I feel like there’s just been so much divisiveness and disconnection.

“Our workers are the foundation of our city. And what they do and what they contribute to our city—they’re the unsung heroes. I live near Pearl Park, and my daughter went to preschool there. I’ve coached basketball, and track, and volleyball there. But we don’t go to that park building and have the experience that we do without those workers. My kids go to Minneapolis Public Schools. They both have IEPs. They have that experience… it’s because of those teachers. And so making sure that I support them in any way possible is so important.”
