A Statement from Mayor Kerry Thomson and the City of Bloomington

In light of recent reports of hate speech, both nationally and within our community, the City of Bloomington unequivocally condemns all acts of hatred and hate speech. We stand firm in our commitment to fostering a safe, inclusive, and respectful environment for all residents.

If you or someone you know feels threatened, contact local law enforcement and the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI (1-800-225-5324) or visit FBI.gov/tips for assistance.

For those needing mental health support, services and resources are available.

Together, we will continue to uphold our values of acceptance, inclusivity, and compassion, ensuring Bloomington remains a welcoming home for all.
