Legislative Update - May 18, 2018

Friday, May 18, 2018

Dear Neighbors,

A picture of Santa Fe High School Students less than one month ago is below. Their sign says “Santa Fe High School says #NeverAgain”.

Today 9 students were gunned down at Santa Fe High School.

My heart is broken. Students, parishioners, concert goers, movie watchers, moms, dads, mayors, and neighbors have marched, rallied, wrote, called, sat-in, and walked out and not one single gun violence prevention measure has had a vote in the Minnesota Legislature.

We must take meaningful action to end gun violence. I am deeply committed to this work. Lives are at stake.

No Coffee and Conversations This Week
We are continuing our final push in the legislative session. I will be at the Capitol all weekend so there will not be coffee and conversations this weekend. I look forward to the next one to do a legislative summary, but please reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns about this final weekend. 

Warmly,
Erin
