Description
Minneapolis Committee of the Whole Meeting

A
A
Also
councilmember
Reich,
and
that
reflects
the
core
of
this
committee,
and
so
we
have
two
items
on
today's
agenda.
In
addition
to
our
reports
from
committees
and
item
number,
one
is
a
quarterly
update
on
the
city's
2020
census
activities
and
that
presentation
will
be
given
by
Alberta
colep
C
from
the
neighbourhood
and
community
relations
department.
Welcome
miss
keleti.
B
Thank
You,
chair
I
was
like
so
go
now
good
afternoon
to
the
council,
so
I'm
Alberta,
Gillespie
and
I'm,
the
2020
project
manager
of
the
2020
census
for
the
city
of
Minneapolis,
with
neighborhood
and
community
relations
and
I'm.
Here,
to
give
you
a
brief,
update,
quarterly
update
of
the
status
of
that
project,
and
it's
for
you
to
receive
and
file.
They
do
have
a
couple
of
slides
that
I'm
gonna
go
through
and
I'm
gonna
try
not
to
cough
through
this.
So
if
you
hear
coffee,
please
forgive
me.
B
C
B
So
the
first
slide
is
really
I
want
to
lay
the
framework.
It
would
give
some
numbers
that
I
think
are
really
important
and
it
really
is
a
foundation
for
what
we're
probably
up
against,
not
just
as
a
city
but
as
a
state,
and
this
is
from
the
US
Census
Bureau
and
it's
the
likely
number
of
people
who
will
not
respond
to
the
census
and
people
who
don't
respond.
B
Those
are
the
people
who
will
need
additional
follow-ups
traditionally
known
as
the
undercounted
or
hard
to
count
communities,
and
so,
if
you
look
at
the
numbers
for
Hennepin
County,
it
is
the
largest
County,
with
the
largest
rate
of
folks
are
expected
not
to
respond
to
the
census.
And
so
of
course,
Minneapolis
is
a
part
of
Hennepin
County.
B
The
next
is
a
list
of
what
we
expect
from
the
top
five
cities.
What
the
non-response
rate
will
be
for
the
census
and
number
two
of
course,
is
st.
Paul
to
lose
this
number
five
number
one
is
Minneapolis
and
so
I
think
this
information
is
important
when
you
think
about
the
census,
because
right
now
we
expect
that
ninety
five
thousand
942
of
our
community
members
will
not
complete
the
census.
According
to
the
research,
that's
been
done
so
when
we
think
about
this
under
counting
that
number
of
95,000
942.
B
That
actually
means
something
to
us
from
a
community
is
perspective.
So
the
state
demographers
office
has
said
for
every
person:
that's
not
counted.
On
average,
there
is
a
loss
of
$2,800
per
person
in
community
funding,
from
federal
funding
and
so
and
that's
2,800
dollars
over
a
10-year
period,
because
the
census
is
only
done
once
a
decade
and
so
that's
ninety
five
thousand
nine
hundred
and
forty
two
people
times
twenty-eight
thousand.
B
So
when
we
say
what
we're
losing
from
a
federal
funding
standpoint
in
2016,
the
top
55
on
federally
funded
programs
were
received
over
15
billion
dollars.
That
was
just
for
one
year
and
that's
just
the
top
55
programs.
So
we
want
to
make
sure
that,
when
we're
talking
or
speaking
to
people
about
the
census,
we're
making
this
information
real
and
relevant,
so
what
type
of
programs
will
we
lose
funding
for
things
like
Head
Start,
we'll
lose
money
for
Medicaid
and
energy
assistance
programs,
things
that
really
have
an
impact
on
people's
lives.
B
So
the
other
question
is
always
who
are
the
hard
to
count
people,
and
so
who
are
the
folks
who
are
in
those
categories
that
are
less
likely
to
be
counted?
Well,
they're
people
of
color
they're
children,
people
experiencing
homelessness,
people
who
may
have
a
language
barrier,
people
who
are
currently
in
poverty,
our
immigrant
and
Refugee
communities.
Those
are
the
people
our
college
students
fall
into
this
category
as
well
people.
Those
are
the
categories
of
people
who
are
likely
to
be
under
counted.
B
The
number
one
under
counted
group
in
the
2010
census
was
actually
children
under
the
age
of
five,
and
so
their
parents
may
have
actually
completed
the
census,
but
even
when
they
completed
it,
they
didn't
include
children
and
so
for
2010.
We
had
almost
2
million
children
nationwide
that
were
not
included
in
the
count.
B
So
oftentimes
we
wonder
well,
why
are
people
not
completed
in
senseless
and
there's
there's
some
barriers
that
have
been
identified?
There's
one
there's
a
distrust
of
government.
People
are
not
sure,
what's
gonna
happen
with
their
information,
so
they're
afraid.
Well,
this
information
being
used
against
me
in
some
way
the
political
climate
is
also
a
challenge
for
us,
because
we
have
things
like
the
public
charge,
which
I'm
sure
will
be
talked
about
a
little
bit
later.
B
You
know
so
have
ice
raids
that
are
happening,
so
this
creates
an
atmosphere
of
fear
and
it's
one
of
the
reasons
that
people
don't
complete
the
census.
The
other
thing
is
that
we're
gonna
have
challenges
to
show
some
of
the
barriers
is
because
the
census
in
2020
is
severely
underfunded
when
you
compare
it
to
2010,
so
that
lack
of
funding
means
that
we,
as
cities
will
have
to
fill
in
the
gap.
B
And
so
and
then
we
also
know
that
the,
since
the
census
has
a
history
of
discriminating
and
being
used
as
a
weapon,
and
so
people
are
familiar
with
that
history,
so
we
have
to
educate
people
and
let
them
know
that
there
are
now
laws
in
place.
But
there
is
a
history
that
says
this
has
been
used
in
ways
that
it
should
not
have
been
used
in
previous
history.
B
So
the
question
before
us
is
that
how
do
we
make
sure
that
everyone
is
counted,
because
we
have
the
weak
hand
campaign
where
everybody
is
counted?
Everybody's,
valued?
Everybody
contributes
a
lot
of
the
organization's,
see
the
census
as
a
form
of
resistance
of
the
political
climate
that
currently
exists,
and
so
our
job
is
like.
We
know
what
the
barriers
are.
How
do
we
make
sure
that
people
are
counted
so
we're
going
with
a
data-driven
and
collaborative
approach
to
this?
B
So
if
you
go
visit
the
we
count
Minneapolis
site,
one
of
the
things
that
you'll
see
on
that
site
is
actually
a
map,
and
hopefully
it's
showing
up
on
your
screen,
but
on
this
map
the
dark
blue
areas
indicate
the
places
we
expect
there
to
be
the
Undertown.
So
we
know
where
we
are
gonna
have
the
greatest
challenge,
so
our
efforts
from
our
perspective
are
really
holding
on
those
particular
areas,
so
we're
looking
at
where
geographically
do.
B
We
expect
the
challenges
to
be
and
they,
so
we
what
we
know
about
the
individual
community
groups,
the
groups,
so
we
said,
are
less
likely
whether
it's
people
experiencing
homelessness.
Those
are
those
that's
our
focus
from
a
census
perspective.
We
want
to
make
sure,
from
a
geographical
perspective
and
from
the
historic
organ
groups
that
normally
are
under
counted,
that
we
put
our
energies
and
our
resources
into
making
sure
that
those
folks
are
counted.
B
And
if
you
click
on
that
map,
I'm
afraid
to
click
on
it
cuz
they
might
I
click
on
it
and
we
can't
get
back
to
my
presentation.
But
if
you
do
there's
information
regarding
tracts,
there's
information
regarding
who
lives
in
those
districts.
So
it's
really
informative.
It's
one
of
the
tools
that
we're
using
as
we
go
out
into
community,
because
it's
something
about
having
that
visual.
When
people
can
say
that's,
that's
my
neighborhood
or
that's
my
community
or
that's
the
street
that
I
live
on.
B
That's
the
phase
that
we're
currently
in
the
second
one
is
promotion
and
mobilization,
and
the
third
is
targeted
action,
so
I
wanted
to
talk
about
education
and
the
wins
one
of
the
most
important
things
we
can
do
is
tell
people
why
this
matters
to
them.
Why
this
is
important,
so
we
spent
quite
a
bit
of
time,
building
relationships
and
partnerships
that
allow
us
to
do
this.
That's
that
collaborative
piece
that
I
talked
about.
B
So
when
we
go
out
and
we're
having
these
conversations
and
community
we're
really
covering
some
basic
questions.
What
is
the
census?
We
try
not
to
make
that
complicated
for
people
a
lot
of
times.
You
want
to
give
this
historical
perspective
about
what
the
census
is.
You
know
it's
required.
We
do
it
every
10
years
it
was
mandated
by
the
Constitution
since
then,
90
people
are
not
necessarily
interested
in
that,
and
so
what
we
tell
people,
it's
simple,
it's
the
counting
of
people.
The
census
is
about
counting
people.
B
It's
not
like
an
election
where
you
have
to
meet
a
certain
criteria
in
order
to
be
a
part
of
everyone
can
be
counted
and
everyone
should
be
counted
in
the
census,
and
so
it's
simply
the
counting
of
people.
The
question
is:
why
are
we
counting
people?
What
does
that
mean
to
my
community?
So
what
is?
Why
is
it's
important?
So
we
taught
people.
Why
is
that
important
to
you?
If
you
want
your
kids
to
not
be
in
overcrowded
schools,
the
census
is
important.
B
If
you
want
roads
and
bridges
that
are
in
good
repair,
the
census
is
important
if
you
like
the
bus,
shelter
to
be
a
nice
bus,
shelter
that
you
wait
for
your
bus
on
the
census
is
important,
so
we
want
to
make
it
sure.
Do
you
like
that
lunch
program
that
school
lunch
program,
that's
part
of
the
census?
Did
your
child
ever
attend
headstart?
That's
part
of
the
census.
A
For
businesses
and
corporations,
it
is
a
really
important
tool
to
do
marketing
to
determine
where
communities
live,
what
their
income
levels
may
be.
What
age
children
live
in
these
communities?
All
of
those
things
are
really
so.
It
benefits
all
of
society.
It
is
yeah,
just
our
low-income
communities
that
need
this,
which
they
really
do,
but
but
everybody
in
our
community
benefits
from
a
fully
counted
census.
B
Absolutely
so
most
of
our
conversations
don't
have
a
slide.
A
little
later
had
been
with
community
organizations,
and
so
that's
this
has
been
our
message,
because
the
research
shows
us
that
this
is
the
message
that
resonates
with
those
particular
groups
but
you're.
Absolutely
right.
Businesses
use
this
information
to
determine.
Where
will
I
locate
my
business?
We
cities
of
course
use
it
for
planning,
so
the
census
information
touches
every
area
of
our
lives
and
it's
tough
and
everyone,
regardless
of
your
social
economics.
B
B
So
we
want
to
share
with
people
there's
some
major
changes
that
are
happening
to
in
the
2020
census
that
have
never
happened
before,
so
we're
making
sure
that
they
understand
the
census
is
going
to
be
online
for
the
very
first
time
you
can
also
complete
it
via
telephone
and
then
the
traditional
way
is
questionnaire
right.
The
telephone
is
a
is
a
good
option
for
people,
and
some
people
feel
safer
with
that
than
they
will
with
the
internet
version
of
it.
So
we
want
to
let
people
know
this
is
the
census
is
coming.
B
These
are
the
different
ways
that
you
can
complete
it
and
also
that
we're
gonna
be
partnering
to
create
safe
spaces
for
those
who
may
not
feel
safe,
completing
it
at
home.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we
create
an
atmosphere
where
people
who
may
be
concerned
about
this
political
climate
of
what
might
happen
to
them
a
place
where
they
can
have
their
questions
answered,
and
they
can
know
that
they
can
safely
complete
the
census.
B
So
just
this
because
that's
our
approach,
the
we
have
this
data-driven
and
this
collaborative
approach.
This
is
just
a
few
of
the
highlighted
activities
that
we
participated
in
things
we've
created.
There
is
I
wanted
to
put
them
all
on
here,
but
we
don't
have
time
so,
but
these
are
key
things.
Our
complete
count
committee
is
active,
they
meet
every
month
and
so
the
meeting
next
Tuesday.
So
we're
excited
about
that.
We're
also
working
to
make
sure
that
we
have
our
chairs
become
official.
B
So
and
then
we
have
had
the
first
train
the
training
session,
where
we're
training
other
people,
because
it's
important
that
we're
not
talking
about
this
from
the
city,
we're
actually
teaching
the
grassroots
community
leaders
how
to
have
this
conversation,
the
things
that
I
just
talked
about.
How
do
they
make
sure
that
they're
out
with
their
networks
with
their
organization
having
this
conversation,
so
we've
also
gone
out
to
open
streets
and
nice
and
I'm
night
out
and
some
of
our
council
members,
actually
we're
a
part
of
national
and
I.
B
Now
sharing
that
message
to
give
us
some
great
pictures,
it
had
great
conversations.
So
thank
you
that
we
have
been
on
media
I
was
just
don't
carry
11
just
last
night
talking
about
the
issues
concerning
language,
because
we
know
that
the
census
online
will
not
be
in
Somali
Rahman
and
at
this
point
on
phone
by
the
phone
it
won't
be
Somali
among
so
and
that's
really
important
to
us
or
making
sure
that
we're
out
having
these
conversations.
The
other
thing
is
because
it
won't
be
in
those
languages.
B
The
city
of
Minneapolis
has
in
the
forefront
of
making
sure
that
we
take
those
documents
that
are
important.
Those
pieces
that
get
the
information
out
and
we
translated
some
of
those
documents
into
the
languages
that
are
important
to
the
people
in
our
community
and
we're
not
just
keeping
that
information
here
in
the
city
of
Minneapolis.
We're
also
sharing
that
with
other
local
governments,
because
our
first
and
foremost
are
our
leaders,
of
course,
is
to
the
residents
here.
But
we
want
everybody
to
be
counted,
so
we're
sharing
that
information
out.
B
So
there's
a
number
of
things
and,
of
course,
we've
been
a
cultural
radio
and
will
continue
to
do
all
of
these
things.
When
we
determine
what
type
of
activities
we're
engaging
in
that
map,
that
I
showed
you
earlier,
that
is
what
drives
the
work
that
we
do.
So
we
want
to
make
sure
that
the
majority
of
our
activities
and
what
we're
doing
is
really
centered
around
those
dark
blue
areas
on
that
map.
B
So
building
strategic
partnerships
is
really
important.
I
think
this
work
was
a
little
different
in
2010,
where
people
were
kind
of
doing
the
work
versus
in
collaboration
with
people.
So
not
only
are
we
collaborating
from
an
external
standpoint.
There
are
a
lot
of
internal
collaborations
that
are
happening
which
is
really
exciting
to
be
a
part
of,
and
so
I
listed
a
few
of
those
things
here.
B
I'll
start
with
those
external
because
we
know
that
children
are
under
counted,
and
that
is
the
largest
underground
group
nationwide,
including
in
the
city
of
Minneapolis,
we're
partnering
with
people
like
mica,
Head
Start.
We
were
able
to
present
to
the
entire
staff
about
why
Isis
is
important
so
that
they
can
have
those
conversations
with
the
parents
that
come
into
fika
Head
Start.
B
We
also
were
able
to
present
to
children's
of
minister
to
their
staff,
about
how
kids
are
undercounted,
why
there
aren't
accounted
it's
and
we
actually
gave
them
specific
messaging
that
they
could
use
when
talking
about
that
particular
population.
So
those
are
some
of
those
important
partnerships
we'll
be
working
with
the
YMCA.
They
have
the
New
America
sensors,
so
to
make
sure
that
we're
able
to
have
those
safe
spaces
that
I
spoke
about
what
people
can
actually
go
into
those
sensors
and
complete
the
census.
B
So
we
have
a
number
of
great
partnerships
and
that's
just
some
of
the
ones
that
I
wanted
to
highlight,
and
then
our
internal
partnerships
we
know
2020,
is
gonna,
be
a
huge
year
and
so
we're
partnering
with
elections
to
make
sure
that
when
we're
out
tabeling,
how
are
we
sharing
information?
We
have
a
joint
piece
that
we're
using
to
talk
about
elections
on
one
side,
and
this
is
on
the
other
so
and
we'll
continue
that
partnership.
B
Creative
study,
making
team
we're
excited
about
the
work
that
they're
doing
they're
fully
on
board
now,
and
so
we
expect
to
see
products
coming
from
that
team
pretty
soon.
So
that's
an
exciting
thing
that
is
happening
with
this
instance.
Ig
is
also
that
map
that
you
saw
created
that
map
and
they'll
continue
to
add
layers
to
that,
so
that
we're
telling
the
story
about
the
census
not
in
a
very
generic
way,
but
in
a
more
specific
way.
B
So
we'll
have
some
data,
Maps
data,
storytelling
maps,
that'll
be
added
to
them
HR
and
then,
of
course,
what's
really
been
just
encouraging.
Is
that
so
many
of
you
have
included
information
about
census
and
your
letters
that
you
send
down
on
a
regular
basis.
So
we
appreciate
that
and
we
want
you
to
continue
doing
that
and
we
will
continue
providing
content
so
that
you
can
continue
to
share
some
of
the
future
activities.
B
These
are
some
of
the
things
that
we'll
be
going
to
we're
excited
about
our
Community
Connections
conference,
because
the
thing
for
that
is,
we
count,
which
is
the
same
campaign
as
thing
for
the
census.
The
trends
actually
equity
summit
is
coming
up
as
well
with
your
part
of
that
I'm
gonna
be
having
more
conversations
with
our
boards
on
our
Commission's
so
that
they
can
go
out
and
share
this
information
and
understand
the
talking
points.
So
quite
a
few
things
going
on.
B
A
C
You,
madam
vice
president,
I,
just
had
a
comment
because
we've
been
chatting
a
lot
about
the
importance
of
communities
of
color
and
immigrant
communities
to
fill
out
the
census,
on
the
heels
of
the
citizenship,
question
being
blocked
from
the
census,
which
we
know
a
lot
of
twin
cities.
People
help
to
fight
back
on
and
we
were
discussing
the
importance
of
having
everyone
fill
it
out
because
of
its
relationship
to
preserving
and
protecting
our
congressional
seats
in
Minnesota.
C
So
there's
a
lot
of
different
connections
that
are
happening
here
that
involve
not
only
resources
in
terms
of
dollars
and
money,
but
also
a
political
representation
and
civic
participation
and
representation
in
in
the
federal
government
and
in
the
policy-making
that
happens
in
this
country.
So
I
just
wanted
to
share
that
piece
of
information.
Because
yesterday,
when
I
was
meeting
with
a
few
union
leaders,
we
were
discussing
just
how
important
of
a
project
filling
out
the
census
and
making
sure
communities
are
informed
and
empowered
to
fill
it
out
is
how
valuable
that
is
and
how.
C
B
B
I
would
have
said,
that's
a
part
of
our
talking
point
and
so
important
and
that's
how
we
use
those
numbers
because
we
lost
a.
We
were
close
at
at
risk
of
losing
a
council
seat
and
a
council
seat
of
sorry
congressional
seat
in
2010,
and
we
only
say
that
say
by
a
little
over
7,000
people
responding
so
and
you
think
about.
B
So
we
do
use
that
information
and
I
think
that's
important
because
of
census
at
the
core
is
about
power
and
representation
right,
and
so
we
tell
people
we
go
on
in
the
community.
This
is
about
power
and
representation.
It's
also
about
funding,
that's
important,
but
it's
about
all
of
those
things,
and
this
is
democracy
at
the
very
core.
A
A
Councillor
McConnell
as
I
was
gonna
bring
those
up
as
well,
because
it
really
is
critical
that
we
preserve
our
congressional
representation
in
addition
to
the
resources
that
the
census
can
help
to
bring
to
our
communities.
Are
there
any
other
comments
or
questions
from
my
colleagues
seeing
none
I
will
move
that
we
receive
and
file
this
update,
all
those
in
favor,
say
aye,
any
opposed,
say,
nay,
and
then
item
carries.
Thank
you
so
much
mr.
Connolly.
A
A
Those
communities
feel
supported
the
more
likely
it
is
that
they
would
complete
the
2020
census
count.
So
we're
gonna
give
an
update
on
our
federal
immigration
initiatives
in
the
city,
their
impacts
on
immigrant
and
refugees
committee
from
Ms
Michelle
Rivera
from
the
neighborhood
and
community
places.
Department
welcome.
Thank.
E
You
very
much
Joe
Jenkins.
My
name
is
Michelle
Rivero
councilmembers
I'm,
the
director
of
the
office
of
immigrant
and
refugee
Affairs,
which,
as
Council
Committee
Chair
Jenkins
indicated,
is
within
the
department
of
neighborhood
and
community
relations.
I
will
present
a
summer
2019
immigration
update,
which
will
go
through
events
that
has
taken
place
over
the
summer
from
a
federal
immigration
standpoint
and
then
also
city's
response
to
federal
immigration
developments.
E
What's
on
the
horizon,
upcoming
concerns
and
upcoming
events
and
suggested
actions
that
the
city
of
Minneapolis
can
take
to
support
to
help,
support
and
integrate
our
immigrant
and
Refugee
community
members
in
this
time
of
concern
and
crisis
and
fear.
Frankly,
so,
with
regard
to
immigration
developments
from
June
to
August
of
2019,
there
were
a
couple
of
specific
events
that
created
a
lot
of
fear
in
community.
One
was
the
weekend
of
June
21st
to
23rd.
The
federal
administration
announced
that
there
be
ramped
up
immigration
enforcement
and
select
cities,
while
Minneapolis
and
st.
Paul
we're
not
included.
E
There
was
a
great
deal
of
fear
within
our
communities,
the
federal
government.
It
indicated
that
the
ramped
up
enforcement
efforts
would
target
people
who
have
existing
deportation
orders
already.
The
government
took
a
step
back
from
that
position
and
said
that
they
would
not
implement
the
the
plan
to
to
increase
enforcement.
For
a
couple
of
weeks
on
July
12
news
outlets
reported
that
Isis
created
began
enforcement
operations
on
Sunday
July
14th,
which
again
created
a
great
deal
of
fear.
E
Federal
immigration
agency
action
was
expansion
of
expedited
removal
on
July
23rd.
The
federal
government
issued
a
notice
indicating
that
it
would
expand
expedited
removal
to
people
who've
been
in
the
United
States
for
less
than
two
years.
Expedited
removal
is
a
method
for
immigration
agents
to
detain
and
remove
someone
from
the
United
States
without
giving
them
the
right
to
a
hearing.
It's
important
to
note
that
there
are
specific
circumstances
where
a
person
still
can
have
a
hearing
before
an
immigration
judge,
for
example,
if
they
fear
persecution
in
their
home
countries.
E
This
proposed
rule
was
challenged
in
federal
court
by
the
ACLU
and
the
matter
is
still
pending.
Another
important
immigration
development
relates
to
the
restrictions
on
access
to
asylum,
on
July
16th,
the
Department
of
Justice
and
Department
of
Homeland
Security,
published
a
rule
indicating
that
people
who
come
to
the
United
States
through
Mexico
transiting
through
a
third
country
before
arriving
to
the
United
States,
who
do
not
file
for
asylum
in
that
third
country,
are
prevented
from
being
able
to
file
for
asylum
in
the
United
States.
E
This
does
fly
in
the
face
of
international
law,
as
well
as
our
own
asylum.
On
has
also
been
challenged
in
federal
court.
The
rule
purports
to
apply
prospectively,
so
in
the
future
two
individuals
who
enter
the
United
States
on
or
after
July
16th
2019.
It's
important
to
note
that
federal
court,
a
federal
court,
has
blocked
implementation
of
this
rule,
so
it
is
not
in
effect
at
present.
E
Another
development-
that's
important
to
note-
is
people
with
certain
denied
applications
for
immigration
benefits
being
transferred
to
immigration
court
proceedings
in
June
of
2019
the
summer
USCIS
issued
a
policy
memorandum
that
states
that
they
will
issue
a
notice
to
appear,
which
is
the
first
step
in
immigration
court
proceedings
when
the
government
is
trying
to
deport
a
person
from
the
United
States
based
upon
issuance
of
an
unfavorable
decision
in
an
affirmative
application
with
USCIS.
So
you
apply
with
USA
s.
Permanent
immigration
benefit,
the
application
is
denied,
then
your
case
can
be
transferred
to
immigration
court.
E
Whether
USCIS
is
in
fact
transferring
those
types
of
cases
to
immigration
court
proceedings
if
people's
applications
are
denied
and
then
finally-
and
this
has
garnered
a
lot
of
attention
in
the
media-
the
public
charge
rule
which
is
issued
on
August
14th
public
charge
is
a
subject
that
is
relevant
for
people
who
are
applying
for
permanent
resident
status.
In
specific
categories,
only
the
government
identifies
whether
the
person
is
likely
to
become
a
public
charge
based
on
their
use
of
certain
benefits
or
institutionalization
for
long
term
care
at
government
expense.
E
It's
important
if
they
said
to
remember
that
there
are
many
individuals
who
are
not
subject
to
that
rule
at
all.
For
example,
US
citizens,
asylees
or
refugees,
people
have
special
immigrant
status.
People
have
temporary
protected
status
of
our
UT
visas
or
green
cards
based
on
those
categories.
It's
also
important
to
keep
in
mind
that
this
rule
is
not
gone
into
effect.
It
would
not
be
implemented
until
the
15th
of
October,
but
multiple
states,
including
the
state
of
Minnesota,
have
filed
suit
in
federal
court
in
Washington.
E
E
As
a
welcoming
city
city
leaders
also
reconfirmed
that
the
Police
Department
does
not
cooperate
with
or
participate
in
ice
activity
and
also
referred
people
to
know
your
rights
resources,
including
on
the
office
of
immigrant
and
Refugee
affairs
webpage
and
the
remainder
of
June
and
through
the
president.
Actually,
the
office
of
immigrant
refugee
Affairs
has
ramped
up
visibility
in
community
by
participating
in
events
in
different
neighborhoods
from
tabling
and
know
your
rights,
presentations
and
community
information
sessions
to
ensure
that
community
members
have
access
to
resources,
oops
Owen,
sorry,
thank
you.
Islanders
beyond
their
rights.
E
Moira's
also
worked
with
community-based
organizations
and
immigration
attorneys
affiliated
with
the
American
Immigration
Lawyers
Association,
to
identify
attorneys
able
to
participate
in
know
your
rights
training
and
offering
one-on-one
legal
consultations.
We've
also
provided
information
on
the
city's
radio
program
hours
with
the
next
video
station
Somali
and
also
Hmong,
to
ensure
that
people
have
access
to
accurate
information.
Some
of
these
events,
some
of
these
radio
programs,
have
also
included
public
benefits.
E
Attorneys,
who
talk
about
who
may
or
may
not
be
impacted
and
also
identify
resources
where
people
can
get
accurate
information,
including
mid
Minnesota
legal
aid,
which
is
a
non-profit
legal
service
organization
in
the
Twin
Cities
area.
That
has
a
dedicated
hotline
where
they
answer
questions
about
public
charged
public.
The
public
charge
issue
in
response
to
the
July
report
of
ramped
up
ice
enforcement
operations,
as
well
as
the
incident
that
took
place
in
July
of
a
violent
apprehension
by
ice
agents
on
the
city,
has
also
developed
an
informal
protocol
of
response
to
enforcement
threats.
E
That
includes
identifying
whether
an
enforcement
operation
actually
took
place.
Creating
an
incident
log
of
the
enforcement
operation
reported
when
an
incident
involves
an
allegation
of
violence
by
ice
agents
contacting
ice
to
request
an
explanation
of
the
incident
asking
our
federal
elected
that
includes
senators
offices
and
representative
to
assist
the
city
and
inquiring
further.
The
city
is
also
prepared.
A
frequently
asked
questions
page
sheet
on
immigration
enforcement
that
is
housed
on
the
office
of
immigrant
and
refugee
Affairs
webpage.
E
The
oiler
webpage
is
also,
as
I
have
indicated,
been
updated
with
no
rights
information
as
well
as
suctions
addressing
many
of
the
immigration
developments
that
I've
talked
about
here
and
where
to
go
to
obtain
additional
information.
We
also
have
a
regularly
published
immigration
bulletin
and
around
the
time
of
the
ramped
up
enforcement
concerns
had
a
list
of
resources
where
people
could
turn
to.
E
So
many
of
the
developments
have
taken
place
demand
a
more
comprehensive
and
systematic
response
and
multi
departments,
all
cooperation.
So
to
that
end,
the
office
has
worked
with
3-1-1
with
the
communications
department,
the
coordinators
office
in
developing
an
immigration
oriented
script
for
3-1-1,
directing
people
to
the
ORA
webpage
for
immigration,
related
updates,
explaining
our
relationship
with
legal
service
organizations
that
provide
advice,
partners
and
providing
an
explanation
of
what
our
separation
ordinance
means
in
part
that
the
Minneapolis
Police
Department
does
not
cooperate
with
ice
agents.
E
We're
also
we've
also
worked
with
the
police
department
to
develop
a
video
that
is
used
in
Minneapolis
Police,
Department
training,
procedural
justice
that
explains
the
role
of
the
office
of
immigrant
and
refugee
Affairs,
also
goes
through
the
spectrum
of
immigration
status,
welcoming
policies
implemented
by
the
city
of
Minneapolis
and
where
police
department
officials
can't
go
if
they're
interested
in
learning
more
about
immigration.
Related
developments.
I
am
also
working
with
Minneapolis
Public
Schools
to
ensure
that
we
are
systematically
delivering
information
about
immigration
resources
to
people
where
they
are.
That
includes
teachers,
parents
and
families.
E
In
addition
to
that,
I
am
working
with
the
office
of
immigrant
refugee.
Affairs
is
working
with
the
communications
department,
intergovernmental
relations,
a
coordinators
office,
many
hapless
public
housing
authority
and
the
health
department
to
identify
impacts
of
rules
and
regulations
that
are
issued
by
the
current
federal
administration,
and
this
work
is
ongoing.
So.
E
I've
talked
with
public
health
officials,
minneapolis
public
school
teachers
and
in
the
presentations
I
give
when
I
talk
about
this
potential
chilling
effect
I
see
a
lot
of
head
nods
where
people
know
that
residents
are
concerned
about
the
impact
of
this
rule,
even
though
it
hasn't
gone
into
effect,
will
regularly
need
to
keep
community
informed
regarding
the
status
of
the
rule
and
work
to
measure
impacts
to
ensure
the
people
have
access
to
the
information
they
need
to
make
informed
decisions
regarding
their
use
of
public
benefits.
Another
important
subject
is
refugee
resettlement.
Excuse.
G
E
Cash
benefits
SSI
amphib
and
general
assistance,
or
snap
food
stamps
or
EBT
Medicaid,
with
some
exceptions
and
federal
public
housing
for
section
AIDS.
So
those
are
the
benefits
that
are
included
in
the
rule
to
clarify
the
benefits
that
are
not
included,
include
WIC,
CHIP,
Minnesota
care,
Medicaid,
Medicare,
emergency
medical
assistance;
I'm.
E
G
Great,
thank
you
I
guess.
I
just
have
some
concerns
around.
You
know,
folks,
not
having
their
meet
its
needs,
met
at
higher
levels
and
then
that
falling
on
to
us
to
be
able
to
meet
those
needs.
Has
there
been
I
haven't
seen
any,
but
as
somebody
who's
a
little
bit
deeper
into
it,
obviously
have
you
seen
any
potential
like
increase
in
government
and
local
government
supports
in
order
to
be
able
to
address
what
might
grow
as
the
need
that
might
grow
is
result
of
this.
So.
E
Thank
you
so
much
for
your
question.
Through
the
chair,
councilmember
Cunningham,
the
state
of
Minnesota
is
very
tuned
to
this
issue
and
is
doing
outreach.
In
fact,
there
is
a
session
that'll
take
place
on
the
16th
in
a
few
days
where
municipal,
county
and
state
officials
have
been
invited
to
talk
about
the
impacts
and
how
to
address
the
impacts
of
this
world,
taking
into
consideration
the
fact
that
we
will,
as
municipalities
and
regional
and
state
bodies,
will
all
feel
the
effects
of
implementation
of
this
rule.
So
I
do
think.
E
E
So
the
the
the
next
subject
I
wanted
to
address
was
a
potential
reduction
in
refugee
resettlement
numbers
for
the
current
fiscal
year,
which
covers
2000,
October,
1
2018
to
September
30th
2019,
the
refugee
resettlement
caps.
The
number
of
refugees
who
can
be
resettled
into
the
United
States
is
30,000.
The
federal
government
is
considering
reducing
that
number
to
zero
for
fiscal
year
2020,
so
that
would
start
October
1
2019
September
30th
2020.
E
There
is
a
nonprofit
organization
that
works
on
refugee
resettlement,
called
international
institute
of
minnesota.
That,
in
conjunction
with
other
organizations,
has
been
doing
a
great
deal
of
outreach
on
this
subject
to
explain
what
kind
of
impact
that
will
have
not
only
on
community
here
and
since
the
state
of
Minnesota
does
resettle
in
the
city
of
Minneapolis,
for
example,
for
this
last
fiscal
year
has
resettled
50
individuals,
but
also
from
the
standpoint
of
the
nonprofit
organizations
themselves.
E
E
Another
important
topic
is
daca:
deferred
action
for
childhood
arrivals.
The
federal
government
terminated
the
daca
program
in
September
2017,
however,
doctor
renewals
continued
to
be
processed
and
the
matter
was
before
several
federal
courts.
The
case
is
going
to.
There
was
a
case
going
to
the
Supreme
Court.
This
fall
to
determine
whether
the
federal
government
termination
of
the
daca
program
was
legal
or
not,
so
it's
possible
that
we
will
see
some
movement
on
daca
sometime
soon.
E
It's
important
to
be
aware
of
that,
because
daca
beneficiaries
will
require
additional
support
in
terms
of
advice,
identifying
what
other
options
may
exist
as
far
as
Minnesota.
The
statewide
impact
ranges
from
5,600
to
approximately
9,000
people,
5,600
individuals
who
actually
have
daca
9,000
people
who
could
qualify
for
daca,
temporary,
protected
status
and
deferred
action
are
also
important
subjects
to
consider,
for
example,
nopal
Honduras,
Nicaragua
and
El
Salvador.
Our
countries
are
protected,
whose
citizens
who
are
in
the
United
States
are
protected
by
temporary
protected
status.
E
Temporary
protected
status
allows
individuals
who
are
in
the
United
States,
who
are
from
countries
that
have
experienced
natural
disaster
or
war,
or
some
other
extremely
challenging
circumstance
where
the
US
government
says
that
the
individual
should,
for
humanitarian
reasons,
be
allowed
to
remain
in
the
United
States.
That's
what
temporary
protected
status
covers.
The
federal
government
has
terminated
temporary
protected
status
for
individuals
from
the
country,
as
I
mentioned.
E
That
decision
was
also
subject
to
federal
litigation,
and
while
the
litigation
is
ongoing,
people
who
are
in
the
United
States
pursuant
to
temporary
protected
status
are
allowed
to
renew
their
applications.
But
that
is
a
very
tenuous
grasp
on
the
right
to
stay
in
the
United
States,
because
these
individuals
and
I
believe
that
the
that
the
number
of
individuals
in
Minnesota
is
4,000
are
not
in
a
situation
where
they
have
a
permanent
right
to
remain
in
the
United
States.
A
A
E
There
was
of
just
to
give
an
example.
There
was
a
volcano
in
a
volcanic
eruption
in
Guatemala
last
year
that
impacted
over
1.4
million
individuals.
The
government
of
Guatemala
petitions
to
the
US
government
to
offer
temporary
protected
status,
and
the
federal
government
did
not
do
so.
So
it
is
an
excellent
question,
but
it
remains
to
be
seen
and
and
if
I
can
just
offer
my
own
perspective,
I
would
feel
pretty
pessimistic
about
the
government
extending
temporary
protected
status.
E
However,
I
do
feel
that
when
people
mobilize
for
a
specific
request,
for
example,
deferred
and
forced
departure
for
citizens
of
Liberia
de
Dee
is
similar
to
temporary
protected
status.
The
federal
government
was
considering
terminating
de
D
altogether,
but
partially
or
in
large
part,
because
of
an
outcry
and
community.
The
federal
government
extended
de
D
for
Liberians
for
an
additional
year,
so
I
do
think
that
there
is
value
in
mobilizing
community
to
advocate,
for
this
specific
benefit
in
certain
instances.
E
So
one
additional
subject:
that's
important
to
touch
upon
is
the
government's
continuous
infringement
on
the
right
of
people
to
seek
and
obtain
asylum
in
the
United
States
asylum
law
is
fairly
well
settled.
People
do
have
the
right
to
apply
for
asylum
in
the
United
States,
and
yet
we
are
seeing
through
Board
of
Immigration
Appeals
decisions
and
proposed
regulations.
E
The
government's
try,
the
federal
government
trying
to
make
it
more
difficult
for
asylum
seekers
to
apply
for
asylum
and
obtain
asylum,
and
then
for
people
who
are
actually
applying
for
asylum,
making
it
more
difficult
for
them
to
be
safe
here
in
the
United
States
and
one
recent
example
that's
worth
noting,
is
on
September
9th.
The
government
issued
a
proposed
rule
stating
that
Asylum
applicants
who
are
filing
for
work
authorization
normally
those
applications
must
be
processed
by
regulation
within
a
30-day
time
frame.
So
the
government
is
proposing
eliminating
that
rule.
E
The
reason
that
that
rule
exists
is
that
people
who
are
applying
for
asylum
in
the
United
States
often
come
here
with
absolutely
nothing.
Asylum.
Applicants
are
eligible
to
file
for
work
authorization
after
the
their
application
has
been
in
process
for
150
days
and
having
a
30
day.
Processing
time
makes
it
easier
for
asylum
applicants
to
be
able
to
live
safely
in
the
US,
because
it
gives
them
an
option
to
work.
It
gives
them
the
possibility
to
work.
E
So
upcoming
opportunities
and
then
suggested
actions,
the
city
of
Minneapolis
is
hosting
a
welcoming
week
celebration
on
September
20th
in
Powderhorn
Park.
This
is
an
opportunity
for
community
to
celebrate
together
to
celebrate
our
diversity
to
learn
about
each
other.
We
have
a
number
of
individuals
participating,
including
the
American
Civil,
Liberties,
Union,
nonprofit
organization,
legal
partners,
and
there
will
be
a
program,
including
performances.
There
will
also
be
a.
E
Hora
latina
so
from
4:30
to
5:30,
there
will
be
an
hour
of
lonex
programming
and
celebration
of
Latinas
Heritage
Month
these
opportunities
to
celebrate
and
be
in
community
together.
A
very
valuable
they're,
also
extremely
helpful
and
identifying
what
concerns
people
have
in
community
and
how
to
address
those
concerns.
E
E
We've
taken
the
city
of
Minneapolis
has
taken
bold
steps
to
provide
funding
for
a
both
service
organizations
that
offer
immigration
related
legal
services
to
residents.
The
mayor
has
proposed
increasing
the
amount
of
financial
assistance
or
support
for
legal
service
organizations
from
$75,000
to
$100,000.
E
As
far
as
an
example
of
what
legal
services
provide,
or
this
support
provides
mid,
Minnesota
legal
aid,
which
is
not
funded
by
the
city
for
immigration,
related
legal
services,
as
I
indicated
before,
operates
a
hotline
where
anyone
can
call
and
receive
advice
regarding
the
public
charge
rule.
This
is
a
crucial
service,
especially
now.
E
It
also
can't
be
overstated.
How
important
access
to
counsel
is
when
a
person
is
in
immigration,
court
proceedings
for
a
detained
immigrants
with
counsel,
they
are
nearly
11
times
more
likely
to
seek
a
way
to
stay
in
the
United
States
than
those
without
counsel
for
non
detained
immigrants.
There
are
five
times
more
likely
to
obtain
to
seek
relief,
two
to
seek
relief
if
they
have
an
attorney.
E
In
addition,
immigrants
with
legal
representation
who
are
detained
are
twice
as
likely
to
win
the
benefits
that
they
seek
if
they're
represented
and
people
who
are
not
detained
are
five
times
more
likely
to
obtain
immigration
benefits
if
they
are
represented
than
if
they're
unrepresented
so
facilitating
access
to
immigration.
Legal
services
to
the
maximum
amount
possible.
E
Community-Based
organizations
have
been
very
important,
especially
now,
organizations
like
release
Minnesota,
eight
black,
immigrant,
collective
and
navigate
function
as
navigators
so
ensuring
that
people,
sometimes
it's
it's
challenging
for
people
to
look
at
a
website
and
identify
well.
What
should
I
do
with
this
information?
It's
very
helpful
to
have
someone
inviting
you
and
organizations
like
this
perform.
This
essential
function
and
some
operate
on
a
shoestring
budget,
they're
they're,
crucial
in
providing
support
to
immigrant
and
Refugee
communities.
E
Another
suggested
action
is
establishing
clear
protocols
for
investigating
Isis
use
of
force.
As
I
indicated,
we
have
an
informal
protocol.
This
is
a
discussion
that,
particularly
with
regard
to
situations
where
ice
actions
result
in
damage
to
property
or
injury.
It's
a
discussion
of
include
Minneapolis,
Police,
Department,
the
City
Attorney's
Office
and
others.
As
far
as
a
phone
hotline
additional
resources
to
increase
internal
capacity
and
external
support.
E
We're
also
looking
for
additional
resources
to
increase
capacity
within
the
Department
of
neighborhood
and
community
relations.
We
are
trying
to
identify
sources
of
grant
funding
that
can
support
this
work.
Also
within
the
University
of
Minnesota
Humphrey
institute
and
law
school,
we
have
collaborations
with
those
offices
that
provide
interns
that
help
do
the
work
to
support
immigrant
refugee
communities
I'm
very
grateful
for
the
opportunity
to
present
before
you
today.
That
concludes
my
presentation.
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
Thank.
H
You
manager,
not
a
question,
just
a
really
heartfelt.
Thank
you.
When
I
see
the
item
number
three
here
are
number
to
ensure
community
members
have
access
to
information.
I
just
want
to
share
with
my
colleagues
that
our
staff
has
had
the
opportunity
to
work
with
my
place
of
worship
as
we
became
a
sanctuary
congregation
and.
I
H
Members
have
relied
on
our
city
staff
Rochelle
in
particular
to
give
us
information,
not
just
about
sanctuary
for
people
who
potentially
could
be
deported,
but
also
for
asylum
seekers
and
now
we're
moving
towards
using
an
apartment
that
we
have
potentially
for
asylum
seekers.
It
is
a
very
complicated
area
of
the
law
and
with
all
of
the
lawyers
at
my
congregation,
we
still
needed.
H
Give
us
information
about
how
to
even
explain
the
difference
between
sanctuary
and
asylum
and
how
that
works.
I'll
also
note
that
we
did
have
someone
in
sanctuary
at
our
sanctuary
and
unfortunately,
for
a
number
of
reasons.
He
felt
the
need
to
leave
and
was
arrested,
not
two
days
later
and
placed
in
the
Sherbourne
County
Jail,
along
with
300
other
people.
H
Half
of
the
total
population
of
the
jail
is
made
up
of
people
who
are
there
due
to
immigration
related
issues,
so
this
particular
person
needed
sanctuary
and
the
second
he
left
he
was
picked
up
and
now
will
likely
be
deported.
It's
just
a
terrible
situation
and
so
I
think
the
more
we
can
have.
Professionals
like
Michelle
talking
to
other
professionals
in
the
neighborhood
under
this
area
of
insuring
community
members,
have
the
resource
information
they
need
in
order
to
do
their
part.
That's
what
makes
a
difference.
H
I
H
Your
network
is
what's
important
and
know
that
we
have
someone
I
mean
I,
haven't
even
had
to
talk
to
our
staff,
because
you've
been
talking
directly
to
people
in
my
world
in
order
to
help
make
it
happen.
So
thank
you.
It's
on
you're
probably
surprised
to
hear
the
outcome
of
our
particular
case,
but
we're
on
to
the
next
opportunity
that
we
have
to
help
someone
seek
asylum,
and
hopefully
others
will
become
involved
in
that
as
well.
Thank.
E
A
Thank
you,
customer
Goodman,
I'm,
so
glad
you
brought
up
dead.
That
issue,
though,
because
so
many
people
in
our
community
are
being
incarcerated
simply
because
of
immigration
and
status
issues,
and
it's
deeply
unfortunate,
but
I
think
the
importance
of
this
presentation
is
that
it
gives
us,
as
council
members,
the
information
and
the
awareness
to
be
able
to
share
this
information
with
our
networks,
as
you
mentioned,
with
our
communities
and
our
constituencies
as
we
try
to
work
through
these
issues.
A
Are
there
any
other
questions
or
comments
concerns
folks,
wanna
emphasize
you
know,
I
know
a
lot
of
times,
people
think
of
immigration
issues,
as
simply
you
know,
South,
American
or
Mexican,
but
immigrants
come
from
all
over
the
world
and
they
are
black
and
brown.
They
are
coming
from
African
countries
and
in
other
parts
of
the
world,
and
so
this
is
absolutely
all
of
our
issue
and
all
of
our
concerns,
and
so
thank
you,
mr.
Rivera,
for
that
really
detailed
update
and
with
that
I
moved
to
recede
and
file.
A
This
update,
all
those
in
favor,
say
aye
any
opposed
a
name.
An
item
carries
thank
you.
So
much
I
do
want
to
know
before
we
moved
into
our
committee
reports
that
we
have
been
joined
by
council
members,
Goodman
and
more
Sammy,
and
we
will
now
hear
from
our
committee
chairs
and
the
first
committee
being
the
budget
committee
chaired
by
council
member
of
Palmisano.
Thank.
F
You,
madam
chair,
as
all
of
my
colleagues
here,
are
aware.
We
received

of
how
the
levy
proposal
got
made
in
our
first

we
will
be
having
it
in
thus
for
Friday's,

We
will
have
received

by
the
police
department,
fire
in
the
city
attorney
at
tomorrow's
Budget
Committee
meeting
and
I
a
request
and
expect
that
there
will
be
some
thorough
discussion
on
there's.

I
You
very

with
seven
items.
The
first
three
are
land
sales,
I
want

comments
received
at
a
public
hearing
into
our
consolidated
annual

and
evaluation

The
fifth

is
probably
the
most
noteworthy.
It's
the
passage
of
an
ordinance
amending
title,
12
chapter
240
for
the
rental
protections

I
The

and
I
will
stand
for
questions
on

There
was
some
discussion
I'll
note
in
the
committee
about
possible
amendments
that
might
be
coming
up,
Friday
on
the
rental
protections
ordinance,
but
I
am
not
