I would like to make known to you that I was a victim of racial profiling by one woman that works at the Bloomington Fire Department. This happened June 10 between 11:30 am to 12 noon at the Upper Cascades Lions Den shelter that she attended an event of Ivy Tech Community College. I was helping out and she asked me where I am from then I answered her I’m from Bloomington, then with an attitude asked me again where are you originally from? Me and my friend got caught off guard and answered her I’m from question.. Then she said that she was born and raised in New York then asked me why am I hear in Bloomington. It was so shocking to me that somebody approached me and my friend that way. Her name is Natalie and she was wearing a Bloomington Fire Department uniform. I hope this gets taken care off coz I’ve been serving I. This community for a long time and I have never experienced this in my life. I hope this will not fall on deaf ears. Thank you

Greetings. Once again, I see little to no effort on behalf of the City of Bloomington in celebrating Pride, and more specifically assuring safety and inclusion of its significant LGBTQ population. At least at current, I see no mention on the CFRD or Mayor pages, and no of no sponsored events. There has been seldom to ever a time in recent years of such attack on this minority population, with safety feeling slim even at the university level, and now is the time for moral leadership. Please step forward and actually speak up on behalf of your residents.

For the Mayor's Office: Please consider dropping support for the Twitter/X platform. The owner in an unapologetic Nazi and the city should not be supporting that platform in any capacity. I would also encourage you to discontinue Facebook. The Mayor's office, especially, should be posting information in a more open, accessible format. Consider Bluesky or Mastodon. Thank you.

Comments for Administration and City Council members: please note the Bloomington public response and feelings as executive orders from Braun come down at the federal level - it is against the core values and heart of this community. The future is remote and hybrid with emphasis on flexibility as workers are human not cattle. DEI is important in every capacity, not whatever Braun’s “innovation” plan is - that is a buzzword, not DEI. Please please please continue to actually think in a forward direction with all residents, equity, the environment, and future generations in mind. It seems the state is now going backwards; Bloomington needs to continue progressing in a positive and inclusive way. Residents hope to see a public response and show of action that does NOT align with Braun’s recent takeover. We look forward to continuing to participate in a community that does great work for ALL with workers who happily serve us. Thank you for your consideration of these comments and continued work for the actual citizens who make up the community.

For the Mayor's office: Can you please consider posting information somewhere besides Facebook? I should not need an account for that platform just to get information. Post it on the City website, or if you want social media, use something more open source like Bluesky. I appreciate the sharing of information, but wish it was in a different platform. Thank you.

I am again seeing announcements for new hires for items like safe and civil cities with ZERO mention of the significant LGBTQ community in this town. All deserve safe and civil cities, including LGBTQ residents. A community under intense threat at the highest levels in years. What is the City doing to specifically serve and protect queer community members? Who is the staff member assigned to have expertise and devoted time to this task? And bigger question, what is the City doing to prepare for the Trump administration taking power and attacking the LGBTQ community. What plans are being made? What is the City doing to pledge and realistically defend the rights and livelihood of queer people as politicians attempt to destroy such families and eradicate this group from existence? Don't be blindsided. This will be where queer people go for those who remain in Indiana, some without choice.

Please allow all citizens to stay up to date by using an open to all system without the need to sign up to social media. What is posted on social media could be posted on a single city website page, no? Facebook is exclusionary, does not allow all citizens to see all that you post. If you want to reach people through facebook and others great but the information should be available to all with out jumping through those hoops.
