Opposes hyperscale data centers and wants them banned in Minnesota, citing neighborhood noise, added heat, and environmental harm.

Supports strong protections for the natural environment, green jobs, and urgent climate-change mitigation and preparation.
“We have a world to save! We cannot afford to put off the many climate change mitigation and preparation that we need to do.”
Supports ending corporate food waste so that no one goes hungry.
“I refuse to accept that we throw out extra food, yet have people going hungry. I will break a boot off in the corporate grocers whose greed leads to waste and empty stomachs.”
