The fed gov truly let medium and small sized cities down by forcing us to wait for our highly politicized state legislatures to allocate our COVID-19 relief aid. Not only is Mpls going to get a significantly reduced amount compared w the $ directly from the feds, 1/3
Now @mngop is refusing to allocate our federal emergency aid at all to protect the Mpls police federation. 2/3
On what planet does forcing a city further into an economic recession causing cuts in city services actually keep people safer? Oh, right. That’s bc it’s not about the people, it’s about keeping the police federation in power. Don’t let anyone tell you differently. 3/3
