Gone were the days when there was time to craft each policy proposal and each message. Now,...

There are many ways to describe the momentum Black Lives Matter and police reform have received in our home state in the wake of George Floyd's murder at the hands of Minneapolis police officers.

The screed, apparently copied and pasted from Grossell's personal Facebook page, was also screenshotted and distributed elsewhere....
