Saint Paul is a place where leaders from various sectors and experiences quite literally come to the table to tackle challenges head-on and unlock opportunities. That is where transformation happens. This spirit of partnership drives our downtown vision. fox9.com/news/downtown-…

Saint Paul resides on the ancestral lands of the Dakota and Ojibwe. It is known as Imníža Ska, or White Cliffs, and is part of Mni Sota Makoce—the land where the waters reflect the clouds. Recognizing Indigenous names honors their heritage, but true respect demands action. (1/2)

Serving as your mayor for the last eight years has been the honor of a lifetime. We set out to make city government even more relevant in our everyday lives. I’m proud of the progress we’ve made together, guided by our core vision for a Saint Paul that works for all. Thank you.

I’m disgusted by what happened in Minneapolis today. Disgusted that it was so predictable. ICE is operating in ways that sow fear, hatred, and violence—and creating chaos they lack the capacity to manage. Renee Good should absolutely still be alive. mprnews.org/story/2026/01/…

This is an important preliminary win for all Minnesotans exercising their constitutional right to peaceful protest and witness. Thanks and congratulations to the ACLU and the plaintiffs for standing strong for this bedrock principle.
