Minnesotans deserve quality care close to home. As Governor, I will work with colleges, employers, and unions to train more medical professionals for the communities that need them most.

Trump’s unilateral war with Iran has cost American lives and driven up prices across the country. It’s time to end it.

A federal appeals court just blocked Trump's attempt to restrict mail-in voting ahead of the midterms. Elections are run by the states, not the president. Mail-in voting is a safe, secure option relied on by millions of Americans—and even Donald Trump himself.

It was a beautiful morning at the Saint Paul Farmers' Market. Great to stop by with John and Mayor Kaohly Her to support local growers and connect with so many Minnesotans.

Today I released my health care plan at St. Paul Corner Drug — as Governor I will focus on lowering health care costs and expanding Minnesota innovation and health care work force. Thank you to John Hoeschen, Rachelle Schultz, Dr. Dave Thorson, and Joud Haj Sakor, and who all joined today.

Before I held political office, I took on the insurance companies for kicking new moms out of the hospital just 24 hours after giving birth – and we won. In the Senate, I took on the pharmaceutical companies by leading the fight to let Medicare negotiate lower prescription drug prices – and we won.

Honored to join women veterans and VA leaders to celebrate the new Women's Clinic. More than 10,000 women veterans rely on the Minneapolis VA for care, and this new clinic is an important step toward ensuring they receive the high-quality, specialized care they need. https://ow.ly/9jqV50ZsZlk

Northern Minnesota’s small businesses are facing an incredibly difficult season. The Boundary Waters are one of Minnesota’s greatest treasures — and the outfitters, restaurants, hotels, and shops that depend on them need real support.

When our veterans stepped up to serve, there was no waiting line — and there shouldn’t be one now. Pat served 40 years. Now the Minneapolis VA has a clinic dedicated for women veterans like her.

Trump’s tariffs keep changing. But what doesn’t change is who pays for the chaos: Americans, every time they check out at the grocery store.

Today, the Minneapolis VA opened a new women’s clinic — a dedicated space for the 10,000 women veterans they serve, bringing primary care, mental health care, and more under one roof.

The murderer of Melissa and Mark Hortman was sentenced to prison for the rest of his life. Grateful that John and Yvette Hoffman—who courageously survived multiple gunshot wounds—are with us. Our hearts are with Colin and Sophie Hortman and everyone whose lives were forever changed by this tragedy.

As Trump continues his illegal war with Iran, Minnesotans are paying the price at the pump. Higher gas prices mean higher costs for families, small businesses, and farmers. We need leaders focused on lowering costs.

The CDC says more than 11,500 suspected cases of cyclosporiasis have been reported in 41 states. I’ve called on the CDC and FDA to restore their critical food safety programs so we can detect outbreaks quickly, identify their source, and keep families safe.

Rondo Days is an important reminder of the strength and resilience that define the Rondo neighborhood in Saint Paul — it was great to see everyone this weekend.

A reported 1.5 million children have lost SNAP food assistance since the Republican budget bill became law. Letting kids go hungry while the President builds himself a ballroom is completely unacceptable. https://ow.ly/zCHv50Zrp3X

Costs are up, chaos is up, and Minnesotans are paying the price. Donald Trump is more focused on building his ballroom than on helping Americans. I’m focused on lowering costs and getting things done.

QUESTION: Could Trump go one day without making things worse? HEADLINE: Trump to Impose 50% Tariff on Canadian Goods BOTTOM LINE: This is just bad, especially for Minnesota when Canada is our #1 trading partner & Trump’s tariff taxes have already hit us hard.

We can’t run a 21st-century state on 1990s technology. As Governor, I’ll modernize our outdated IT systems — stopping fraud before checks ever go out, cutting wait times on state applications, and making it easier to start and grow a business.

Ruth Richardson, Rep. Kelly Morrison, and Sen. Ann Johnson Stewart know what’s at stake in this election. We all do. Reproductive care is healthcare. As Governor, I’ll make sure it’s protected in Minnesota.

I was just in Ely with the Forest Service and firefighters who are battling these wildfires. Their message: the North Woods are still open for business. Outfitters, resorts, and shops need Minnesotans to keep showing up this summer. https://www.startribune.com/mn-wildfires-businesses/601868549

Cheers to more happy hours and less red tape! Starting August 1 — as a result of a bipartisan bill passed in the MN legislature this year — Minnesota nursing homes and assisted living facilities can host happy hours that bring seniors, their friends, and family together.

Good to be with our Somali Community today, 80,000 strong from Rochester to Moorhead to Minneapolis to St. Paul. Thanks to leaders Sen. Zaynab Mohamed, Rep. Mohamud Noor, Rep. Samakab Hussein, Minneapolis School Board member Abdul Abdi, and DFL Somali American Caucus Chair Qays Caly.

The fires in the Superior National Forest have now burned through 77,000 acres and crews are working to contain them. I’m grateful for the work that first responders, firefighters, and emergency crews are continuing to do to fight the fires and keep people safe in Northern Minnesota.

Great to celebrate Rondo Days w/ former Mayor Carter, St. Paul Councilmember Bowie, ReConnect Rondo Executive Director Keith Baker, & DFL-endorsed candidates Robyn Gulley & Sebastian Ellefson, while honoring the generations who have made this neighborhood an important part of St. Paul & Minnesota.

Premiums NATIONALLY are up 58%. Deductibles at a record high. Republicans ended the health care tax credits and now Minnesotans are losing coverage. Minnesotans deserve better, we must restore them.

This administration cut food safety surveillance, and now a foodborne illness outbreak spread to at least 31 states with nearly 2,800 confirmed cases. I’m calling on the CDC and FDA to restore this funding to keep Americans and our food supply safe.

Thanks to the MN Building & Construction Trades Council for the endorsement & for hosting me at the convention today. MN needs a governor who will cut through the red tape of state government, invest in apprenticeships & fight for workers’ wages & safety. I'm honored to have their endorsement.

Six years ago today, we lost Congressman John Lewis. I walked the Edmund Pettus Bridge with him — the bridge where he was violently attacked for standing up for voting rights. His message has never been more important: the right to vote is precious. It’s sacred. It’s our job to carry on his torch.

Health care premiums are skyrocketing because he won’t extend the tax credits. His tariffs are crushing Minnesota farmers & small businesses, and his war with Iran is raising prices even more. Instead of doing anything to lower costs for Americans, Donald Trump continues to attack the right to vote.

Every American has the right to vote. But the President continues to attack that right, including once again voting by mail (which he has done himself).

Anil Menon grew up in Minneapolis. A field trip to the Science Museum of Minnesota inspired him to become an astronaut. This week, he arrived at the International Space Station for his first mission.

A good idea from a lab in Duluth or a farm outside Worthington should have a clear path to becoming a product, a company, and good-paying jobs for Minnesotans. As Governor, I will create a Minnesota Innovation Network to connect businesses to universities, research centers, and incubators statewide.

Minnesotans shouldn't have to wait longer for their mail simply because of where they live. That's why I'm calling on the USPS to reverse changes that would slow mail delivery across Minnesota.

Air quality is now hazardous across most of the state — with records of wildfire smoke set in Duluth, Grand Portage, and the Twin Cities. Check on your neighbors and above all, stay safe, Minnesota.

Minnesota farmers are the backbone of our state, and I'm committed to helping them thrive for generations. We'll expand no- and low-interest emergency loans, strengthen farmer-lender mediation and mental health support, and open new markets for our crops. When farmers succeed, Minnesota succeeds.
