Minnesota Attorney General Ellison holds public forum to hear from the community

MOORHEAD, Minn. (KVRR) – Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison and local legislators hold a public forum in Moorhead to discuss what it takes to afford their lives.

State Senator Rob Kupec, and State Representatives Heather Keeler and Jim Joy were in attendance with Ellison at Bright Sky Apartments.

During the forum people broke off into small groups and discussed what they need to live with dignity, safety, and respect.

They brought up many issues including scams, lack of transportation, amount of homelessness and issues with the education system.

“I’ve had chairs, I’ve had our AG, I’ve had our speaker of the house. Come out to the community so that they really know and understand what Moorhead is all made of before we go back into the legislative session and make decisions based on the entire state of Minnesota. I think our community deserves to be heard,” said Minnesota state representative Heather Keeler.

Ellison was insistent that the people of Minnesota should call the attorney generals office with any issues and that they want to hear what the people have to say.
