Working hand-in-hand with social movements to make real change:

• Defended and strengthened the Health Department, which has led the fight against COVID-19
• Made healthy food more equitably available
  • Worked with health equity advocates to require healthy foods in all grocery stores
  • Worked with Twin Cities Mobile Market to allow mobile groceries
• Worked with urban agriculture advocates to start Homegrown Minneapolis and the Minneapolis Food Council
  • Legalized urban farms, and allowed larger community gardens
  • Worked with farmers market managers and growers to rewrite farmers market regulations
• Worked with advocates like ANSR, NorthPoint, and the Youth Congress to fight back against the tobacco industry’s efforts to target youth, especially in BIPOC communities
  • Restricted access to flavored tobacco, including menthol
  • Raised the age to purchase tobacco to 21

Cam will continue to lead the fight to:
