Opinion: ICE raids are tearing families apart. We can’t stay silent.

Opinion: Middle schoolers are struggling with addiction. They need help, not punishment

Opinion: Minnesota social studies standards lack critical thinking. Educators must be brave enough to remedy this 

October 2025 Opinion

Opinion: Minnesota youth, we need to put our money where our values are

October 2025 Rahima Kawo Opinion

Minnesotan youth should step up, not step back, their commitment to boycotts. Some of my peers believe that their boycotting does not matter, because they are just one person boycotting. But history proves otherwise.  

Opinion: St. Paul needs fresh leadership. Kaohly Her is the right choice for mayor 

October 2025 Vincent Ledo Opinion

Kaohly Her can re-energize the city, tackle public safety and redevelopment more directly, and help residents feel seen again. 

Opinion: Accessible education for all: the PSEO act as a model for preventing policy inequities  

October 2025 Violet Ditlevson Opinion

Out-of-district courses are an opportunity for all students across Minnesota to have a right to access.

Vital Minnesota transportation projects face underfunding  

February 2025 Areeba Memon Capitol Reporting, News

Minnesota has many transportation issues: Roads and bridges need repair. Traffic congestion needs to be addressed. Public transit needs to be made safer and more environmentally sustainable. 

Medicaid’s future: Uncertain under new administration 

February 2025 Juan Miguel Adams Capitol Reporting, News

The future of Medicaid is in jeopardy under the Trump administration. Threatened cuts to Medicaid—one of the largest public health programs utilized by one in five Americans—could leave millions of people without healthcare.
