On the KMOJ Morning Show, Esther Agbaje joins Freddie Bell and Chantel Sings to provide an inside look at the final days of the Minnesota legislative session, highlighting key priorities, ongoing negotiations, and what residents can expect before adjournment. She reflects on the fast-paced session, sharing progress made on housing, taxes, and community investments, while also outlining what major issues remain unresolved. A major focus of the conversation is the future of Hennepin County Medical Center (HCMC), where Rep. Agbaje discusses her proposed “Ballpark” funding solution and the urgency of bipartisan action to preserve this critical safety-net hospital. She also breaks down elements of the newly passed housing package, including rental assistance and pilot programs aimed at expanding housing stability and homeownership education. The discussion emphasizes the importance of community engagement, collaboration across party lines, and long-term solutions that support Minnesotans statewide.
What is KMOJCast?
Select programming from KMOJ's airwaves and community voices. Since first going “on the air” in 1976, KMOJ-89.9-FM continues its legacy as the community-oriented station located in Minneapolis, Minnesota airing a predominantly urban adult contemporary format.
“KMOJ’s Community Viewpoint” is one way the station achieves its mission of engaging, supporting and empowering Communities of Color to elevate the way of life of the people of its community and to challenge social and economic disparities, and the persistent consequences of historic racism.
The station call letters, “KMOJ” were inspired by the Swahili word “UMOJA” which means “Unity.” http://kmojfm.com/
