Four years ago, I first ran for City Council because I saw the ways our communities were too often ignored by people in power. Today, I’m proud to say I've stood by my promise to be a voice for the people and to organize alongside you. Donate today ->

From expanding protected classes, to advancing funding for LGBTQIA+ resources, I believe we can and must take real steps to protect our communities. Support my re-election so we can keep up this work by purchasing a ticket here! →

Pride doesn’t end in June! Robin for Mpls is excited to announce our Drag Show Fundraiser coming up on July 28th from 6-8pm at Arbeiter Brewing. In a four-year term, I remain committed to fighting for a city where LGBTQIA+ residents can thrive and live safely in our city.

Council is responsible for holding the administration accountable. That looks like working collaboratively to find a pathway to a legally binding agreement to rein in MPD, even if the Trump administration doesn’t agree. I remain committed to this work going forward.

Now the City Attorney claims there is no legal path to preserve the consent decree provisions. Other legal experts- including a previous City Attorney- say this claim does not make sense. I agree.

For months, the City Attorney told Council that modifying the state agreement to include provisions from the federal consent decree could be a path forward, and was a shared goal by all city leaders. In June, the City Attorney changed course without a clear explanation.

Expressing support for police reform and accountability isn’t enough. MPD has caused years of trauma and cost taxpayers millions in legal settlements. A verbal commitment doesn’t cut it— Residents deserve a legally binding agreement.

And the Lynx are 17-2! It was great to watch Minnesota’s Lynx win against my hometown team, the Chicago Sky last night! 🐺🏀

The next three years will require community, and elected leaders amongst all local government to work in partnership. This bill was meant to harm and paralyze us with hopelessness. I am ready and will continue to be on the front lines to fight for working people.

While I am sober about the dark times that we are heading into, I remain clear in my belief that mass organizing and strong local leadership are critical to building power and defending against the Trump administration.

Unprecedented funding was given to ICE, which will now have a larger budget than all the other federal law enforcement agencies combined. This means more masked faces in our streets terrorizing our neighbors. It means federal dollars being used to build concentration camps.

Just days ago, Trump’s regressive budget bill was signed into law. This was one of the largest transfers of wealth from working people to the wealthy in recent history. Funding for healthcare, education, and food assistance for ordinary people was cut to give to the rich.

As a Democratic Socialist and Council Member, I have championed policies that make a real difference for Minneapolitans. From sidewalk plowing, to expanding renters' rights, to implementing fees on big polluters, my commitment to equity and justice is unwavering.

“I would like to think that that’s what DSA candidates are promising to voters, this idea of we’re going to improve quality of life, we’re going to make cost of living go down, and you’re going to see that in meaningful and directly observable ways in your life,” -Joe Kyle, UMN

@swaempls @OmarFatehMN I’m also excited to have strong candidates like @dewayneformpls and @jazzformayor in the race. Together, they represent the kind of leadership we need to deliver a better future for Minneapolis this November.

@swaempls This year, we have the opportunity to elect a mayor who puts working families first, fights for livable wages, and strengthens protections for our most impacted communities. I’m proud to support @OmarFatehMN as my first choice!.

It was great to join @swaempls at their recent event, The Mayor’s Record. Community members heard directly from current and former city staff, as well as community leaders, about how the Mayor has failed to build an equitable city for all residents over his eight-year tenure.

Cost of living is a major burden on students. To provide a community where we can all thrive, affordable tuition is key for both citizen and non-citizen students. Ward 2 is home to UMN, and I will continue supporting residents’ ability to receive an affordable public education.

Trump has launched legal action against MN and its higher education dept over policies offering college tuition benefits for undocumented students who reside here. Our immigrant and international students drive our community forward, and we cannot afford to shut them out.
