Madison City Council’s youngest member explains his exit and takeaways Council Vice President MGR Govindarajan called his terms “educational” and said he hopes his successor focuses on communicating how local government works.

A nice write-up on @murali-mgr.bsky.social's tenure on Council, doing the "student" district proud. I'm happy to read that his departure is in part a recognition of the need to keep that a student-oriented seat, but I hope we see more of his leadership in the future! captimes.com/news/governm...

Madison Sister City Delegation to Visit Obihiro, Japan The trip was organized by the Madison-Obihiro Sister Cities Inc. board to work for peace and better understanding of all cultures.

At a time when international collaboration is fading and immigrants are increasingly marginalized in public discourse, I’m excited to represent Madison’s Common Council on this visit!

Andrew Cuomo gets publicly humiliated. Bill Clinton learns his endorsement is worth less than dogshit. What a great time to be a hater. A golden age.
