“For Renee Nicole Good” Killed by I.C.E. January 7th, 2026 by Amanda Gorman Please support Minnesotans by donating to @ACLUMN : aclu-mn.org/ways-give/

In Minneapolis and many other communities across the country, we're seeing people come together to peacefully protest and support their neighbors. If you're looking to get involved, here are some ways to help: vox.com/future-perfect/47662…

Minnesotans have been writing a story about what it means to be good neighbors – decency and humanity, but also courage and common sense and, above all, an abiding commitment to making life better for the people of our state.

From @springsteen : I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free, Bruce Springsteen

A statement from Alex Pretti’s younger sister, Micayla Pretti: “Alex was kind, generous, and had a way of lighting up every room he walked into. He was incredibly intelligent and deeply passionate, and he made people feel safe. But most importantly, he was my brother. I had the privilege of being his little sister for 32 years. I will never be able to hug him, laugh with him, or cry to him again because of those thugs—and that is a pain no words can fully capture. Alex always wanted to make a difference in this world, and it’s devastating that he won’t be here to witness the impact he was making. Through his work at the VA caring for the sickest patients, and passion to advance cancer research, he touched more lives than he probably ever realized. All Alex ever wanted was to help someone—anyone. Even in his very last moments on this earth, he was simply trying to do just that. I want to thank everyone who has reached out to my family and me, whether you knew Alex personally or not. The messages, posts, and overwhelming positivity shared about him truly reflect his character, work ethic, and passions. My brother is, and always will be, my hero. When does this end? How many more innocent lives must be lost before we say enough? Hearing disgusting lies spread about my brother is absolutely gut-wrenching, and my family is deeply grateful so many people have stood up and helped tell his truth. He would be very proud.”

This Saturday, my administration gets to work for you, Virginia.

This is going to stick with me forever

Mental and behavioral health care by licensed providers is not the same as "speech" - just as surgery is not the same as having your car repaired. Health care rests on an evidence base to protect public safety.

My first job was at the New England Aquarium and I covered the penguin exhibit. It warms my heart that this great acquarium is now caring for aging penguins. ❤🐧❤
