Americans are struggling to afford rent and this administration is focused on email signatures.

The people of Madison deserve police oversight that is truly independent of political influence.

Last night’s common council meeting was one of the most egregious displays of a legislative body refusing to listen to the people I’ve ever seen.

Unless we speak up, large data centers are coming to Madison. Madison's data center moratorium ends in January. I'm calling to extend it so city officials can focus on things we need, like housing and transportation.

🏡 Rent and home prices are too high in Madison. As a renter, I know the struggle. We need housing people can actually afford and we need to build it faster.

I believe that government can and should work for all of us. That’s why I’m introducing ‘One Madison,’ a policy platform we will build together over the coming months. Go to KigeyaForMayor.com/OneMadiso… to help shape our city.

“My rent went up again.” “Am I safe in my neighborhood?” The challenges Madison faces are real. So is our ability to solve them. I’m running to be Madison’s next Mayor to build a city that includes us all. Join us: KigeyaForMayor.com

Juliana, nor her campaign had any involvement in this resolution. Juliana ran a campaign that uplifted the issues facing working class people, organized in places that democratic socialists haven’t typically organized in Madison, and did so with pride. 1/8

This is the dumbest thing I’ve ever read. Nevermind that Isaia launched BEFORE the endorsement process, what a way to discourage candidates from aligning w/ DSA. DSA does not have a monopoly on socialism. If they wanted to win maybe they should’ve picked a better candidate.

Juliana was/is a great candidate who built relationships and led a team and coalition through great pain. She handled and continues to handle what comes her way with grace, which unfortunately, is more than can be said for others…apparently. 7/8

I’m sure she has a bright future in Madison and will continue to learn and grow and I personally am glad that if Juliana wasn’t the nominee, Dina Nina is, as both candidates were the most experienced candidates in the field. And the voters agreed. 8/8

Wisconsin Democrats & Wisconsin DSA infrastructure is actually very strong and the bench is good! A lot of the Dem infrastructure coalesced around DSA candidates early behind the scenes!

I don’t think some people from states with strong party/DSA infrastructure realize how shallow the bench is in other states. There are real potential issues with Hong in a general election, but every other Democratic Gubernatorial candidate has been bottom tier.

Just trying to understand how this is a flex…??? I’d be concerned my candidate is polling behind the frontrunner in the same area he won with 85% of the vote two years prior…

ICYMI - @DavidCCrowley was just re-elected by Milwaukee County with 85% of the vote two years ago.
