Thank you
Resolution passed July 11 by Senate District 60 Central Committee and Executive Committee regarding Council Member Michael Rainville's comments.
ALT On July 8, 2022, Council Member Michael Rainville made comments targeting Somali and Muslim communities regarding public safety. Resolved: SD60 DFL stands with the Minneapolis DFL in condemning Council Member Michael Rainville’s dangerous and hurtful remarks. We too state loudly that “Racism has no place in Minneapolis.” No one is safe when we root public policy decisions in fear. As we believe support for Minneapolis youth should be rooted in community, care, and restorative practices, we call on CM Rainville to repair the harm he caused and to seek restorative reconciliation (for example: meet with Edison High School Student Council and hear directly from them what supports they need). We remind CM Rainville that an apology requires more than words; sustained & corrective actions are required (for example: hold a public community meeting to learn how his comments affected them). Additionally, we call on the Minneapolis City Council to sanction CM Rainville for his statement.

People over profits is what we hoped one Minnesota was about. Not today. Especially not today.
