I joined agriculture leaders from across the state today in Mankato for the Minnesota Ag Expo. Minnesota farmers are the backbone of our economy, and we must ensure they have what they need to thrive—strong markets and stable trade policies.

High-speed internet isn’t a luxury, it’s a necessity. By strengthening USDA support for targeted broadband projects, my bipartisan bill helps lower costs and bring reliable, high-speed internet to rural Michigan and communities across the country.

Federal assistance is needed to help Washington communities recover from December’s devastating floods. The Administration was quick to respond to our emergency request. I hope they will continue to be supportive as our families and small businesses work to build back.

Toured Byers High School’s Career and Technical Education program, which helps equip our next generation with the skills they need to succeed. Expanding workforce programs like these are a no-brainer. Let’s get to work!

Today, I toured the Portsmouth Marine Terminal and was updated on the progress made on the Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind project. This incredible project will bolster offshore wind in VA, lower costs, and grow the local economy.

I visited the King County Sexual Assault Resource Center today to hear about how they'll use funding I secured to continue supporting survivors. Trump tried to slash funding to prevent violence against women—but I fought tooth and nail & we secured RECORD funding instead.

Secretary Kennedy is a threat to public health, and his actions are hurting New Hampshire children and families. I’m grateful to the doctors and families I met today in Concord who are speaking out about the dangers of Kennedy’s attacks on science and vaccines.

Minerals are in everything. That’s why we need to make sure we have access to them. My bipartisan bill, the PRIMED Act, does just that. youtube.com/shorts/uuY8B...

A Minnesota high school student was nabbed by ICE agents as she was trying to pick up food for her family after work. She was violently dragged from her car and lost her shoes. So, barefoot in the middle of winter, she was put into the back of an unmarked car in a small town (Willmar).

16 years ago today, SCOTUS sided with big corporations over the American people in their infamous Citizens United ruling. That decision paved the way for unchecked & secret money in our politics & helped billionaires & special interests buy more elections. We must reverse it.

The gentleman who ICE hauled without cause out of his home in his underwear into the icy Minnesota winter (after terrifying his 5-year-old grandson) was from Laos, one of the Hmong hill tribes people of the then-Kingdom of Laos. You should know a bit about the background of those people. 🧵

The Treasury Secretary says no big deal if the world stops buying U.S. Treasuries. It’s a huge deal for our country’s financial health and for Americans who would pay higher interest rates on car loans and mortgages. Why is he spouting nonsense? To suck up to a wannabe dictator.

Trump’s priorities are clear: no money to fix rising health care or grocery costs… but enough money for a conflict in Venezuela, buying Greenland, and giving ICE a $75 billion slush-fund.

This morning, I spoke with patients, providers, and health care advocates in Hampton about how cuts to Medicaid and the ACA are hurting Virginians. I'll keep fighting to protect and expand critical health care access.

To be clear – Greenland and Denmark have always been willing to work with us on Arctic security and economic development. Trump could have gotten what we needed without antagonizing our NATO allies.

Glad to visit Debbie Smith CTE Academy, Washoe County’s newest high school. It was great to hear about the dedicated career training programs that will prepare students for college or to enter the workforce, and I’m excited to see these students’ success over the coming years!

We must restore the ACA enhanced premium tax credits that expired on December 31st. At a time when so many Americans are worried about the cost of living, Congress must fulfill its duty to protect Americans from rising health care costs.

The idea that a U.S. president would threaten to invade Greenland because Norway didn’t give him a Nobel Prize is pathetic. This has nothing to do with foreign policy. It’s a president acting like a narcissistic spoiled child because his feelings got hurt. Unacceptable.

Donald Trump wants you to believe that it is unrealistic for you to be able to afford rent, groceries, and health care. He's gaslighting you. Affordability is not fake. The only thing that's fake is the idea that he's doing anything to lower costs for the American people.

Don’t Republicans in Congress get tired of this President walking us to the edge of economic disaster over and over again for no reason? This time he almost started a trade war with Europe because he wants Greenland. Who knows what will be next. When will it be enough?

President Trump’s remarks today saying NATO has never helped us were as offensive as they were absurd. Our NATO allies rushed to our aid after 9/11 and more than one thousand NATO troops died alongside Americans in Iraq and Afghanistan. President Putin and Xi Jinping are celebrating.

Trump’s reckless threats (and confusion) towards Greenland weakens NATO and does nothing to lower costs for working families who are suffering under his economy.

Canada is our friend and ally—and one of our biggest trading partners. Threatening Canada like this hurts America. Our citizens will pay for it—literally, as trade and travel plummet. Trust and friendship, by the way? Easy to damage, pretty hard to repair.

I fundamentally think it’s wrong that rich out-of-state investors are buying up all the houses in our communities, putting homeownership out of reach for some and raising rent on others. We need to fix this housing crisis, and my bill is a great start. www.wbay.com/2026/01/14/s...

The conclusion is worth reading in its entirety, but here’s the punchline: “this charade of Ms. Halligan [elsewhere in the order described as a “miscreant”!] masquerading as the United States Attorney for this District in direct defiance of binding court orders must come to an end.”

This admin refuses to do anything to lower your health care costs, but found $75 billion for ICE… so agents can break down the doors of American citizens’ homes and drag them, barely clothed, through the snow. That’s not an exaggeration. That happened this weekend in Minnesota.

The Trump administration’s abuse of sensitive databases for immigration enforcement purposes has been a go-to intimidation tactic to serve their mass detention and deportation agenda. But sharing data on our veterans is a disgraceful abuse even for an administration hellbent on spreading fear.
