Stonewall DFL is the 2SLGBTQIA+ Caucus of the Minnesota DFL Party. — http://mnstonewalldfl.org — Find us on FB: http://facebook.com/StonewallDFL Unofficial intersectional feminist caucus of the DFL.

When Pres. Trump and other men demean, belittle, or harass women- it is wrong. When Mayor Her harassed men in her workplace, it is just as wrong. Society often ignores when women sexually harassment men, or make jokes of it. But male victims deserve justice and fair treatment as well.

Too often, victims of sexual harassment (especially in the workplace) are forced into silence and made to endure unsafe working conditions because they cannot speak out. We have to be clear that this is unacceptable in every workplace, and the halls of government are no exception.

As an elected official, Mayor Her has a responsibility to the citizens she represents to comport herself with the utmost integrity and the highest standards. Her actions show a serious lack of judgement and ethical conduct, and the people of St. Paul deserve better.

I have been following the story of St. Paul Mayor Kaoly Her’s repeated sexual harassment of city employees, and in light of this statement it is clearly time for her to resign her position as mayor. This is a breach of ethics and trust, and for Her to refer to it as “attempts at humor” is galling.

Text of St. Paul Mayor Kaoly Her’s statement on the allegations of sexual harassment as reported by Lou Raguse. It reads:
“Mayor Kaohly Her:
As Mayor, I take my responsibility to treat every employee with professionalism and respect very seriously. I recognize that some of my attempts at humor fell short of the standard I expect of myself. We have fully cooperated with the independent
investigation since it began in April and will continue to do so. I respect the investigative process and believe it is important to allow it to reach its conclusion. I remain confident that the full facts will come to light, and I will continue to focus on serving the people of St. Paul with integrity and dedication."

Trans healthcare is a human right. We are thankful to our DFL Congressional Representatives for voting to protect trans servicemembers, and call on Senators Klobuchar and Smith to vote against Mace’s Amendments.

I am proud to be in solidarity with MN Senator @omarfatehmn.com, and to call him a friend. The hateful rhetoric espoused by the All of Minneapolis PAC is divisive and harmful to us all. Words matter. We are at our best when we live our commitment to care for one another. We are stronger than hate.

My statement responding to the repeated racist and Islamophobic attacks by All of Minneapolis (AOM)

Text reading “FATEH
for MINNESOTA SENATE
STATEMENT: SENATOR OMAR FATEH RESPONDS TO RACIST & ISLAMOPHOBIC ATTACKS BY ALL OF MINNEAPOLIS (AOM)
MINNEAPOLIS, MN - "Today, we all saw yet another instance of a racist and xenophobic dog whistle from Karin Birkeland and the All of Minneapolis PAC - red-baiting and directly attacking my public service to the people of Minnesota as a State Senator.
The statements made in All of Minneapolis' email from this morning are absolutely disgusting. It is this exact kind of harmful rhetoric that is driving the hatred and divisiveness in our politics.
This is the latest example of a repeated pattern of discrediting and dehumanizing our elected leaders of color. Leaders like myself face countless death threats, racist comments, and violent messages daily - but this is a new low. All of Minneapolis continues to go back to their same old disgusting dirty tactics, spreading blatant lies and fear-mongering.
After the year we have been through with Operation Metro Surge, Minnesotans are sick of this politics of fear and division- point blank period.
DFL Party Leadership cannot continue to stay silent on the blatant harm and lies spread by All of Minneapolis. I am disheartened by the culture of enabling this kind of racism, xenophobia, and red-baiting by individuals in positions of power like Chair Richard Carlblom, who has yet to release any statement condemning this type of behavior. It is a complete and utter failure and sadly has been what I have come to expect from the politics of the DFL and its State Chair.
I represent the district with the most unmet needs and have fought tooth and nail every day to improve the lives of my neighbors and fellow Minnesotans. This is what the Southside is all about, and that's the leadership we deserve.
Now, more than ever, we need leaders who will not fold. We will not back down.
Solidarity, comrades."

Trans kids shouldn't have to hope they won the geography lottery when it comes to their ability to play sports. Trans kids should not be banned from sports. That's it.

Parents, schools, and sports leagues should not be able to ban trans youth from sports because that is what they think their community wants. Trans youth should not have to hope they are born in the right place at the right time in order to be able to play sports.

That and “he’ll carry on the work of current Hennepin County Attorney, Mary Moriarty.” Early voting for the August 11th primary is already under way. Make sure to vote for @cedrickfrazier.bsky.social to ensure he is on the ballot in November!

Also today's easiest sell for candidates at our table was @cedrickfrazier.bsky.social. All I had to say was "He has a specific plan to prosecute ICE" and *every single person* I spoke to was like "Okay bet I'll vote for him." I'm proud we have such a good endorsed candidate for hennepin attorney.

Happy Pride!! It’s a beautiful day here at Powderhorn Park for People’s Pride. We’re proud to be celebrating this weekend after we passed the historic Pride In Policy package at our last Council meeting which codified needed protections for our 2SLGBTQIA+ community. See you at the parade tomorrow!

A pleasure to table today with @teamilhan.bsky.social and @stonewalldfl.bsky.social to support our DFL endorsed candidates on a beautiful day out. Definitely one of my more fun duties as CD5 DFL Chair.

Twin Cities Pride is always my favorite event of the year. @teamilhan.bsky.social and @stonewalldfl.bsky.social keeping the tradition alive of sharing a booth and celebrating with community.
