I emailed Commissioner Nelson sharing my painful personal story about having to quit my job due to zero infant care services available in Duluth. It impacted me, my family, and the greater community when my work wasn’t continued at the nonprofit I used to work for because my expertise was no longer available to them. This man responded in a full email, “Thank you for your input.” Not a “Hello, constituent” or “this is a real problem” or ANY other words. I was flabbergasted. I replied immediately asking, was this a robot response, or did you actually read my email? He responded, “Yes, I read your email and again, thank you for your input.” This is completely unacceptable. Ashley Grimm is right. Pull these things into the light of day. Keep this podcast going! I’ll be sharing!
