It was great to meet with New Hampshire VFW leaders to discuss their legislative priorities for this year. I look forward to continuing to work together to ensure our veterans receive the care, support, and benefits they deserve.

Child care is one of the biggest expenses facing Minnesota families – and too many parents are stuck for months on waiting lists.

22 of our servicemembers have been killed in Trump's illegal war. Not 18 like we were told. The Pentagon hid four more heroes' deaths from us for months. Congress cannot let them get away with this. I wrote a bill we can pass to stop this egregious playbook immediately.

Americans can’t afford gas. Diesel is up 50% since Trump started his illegal war. Another spike in prices would be even more devastating. This war needs to end. NOW. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2026/0...

I’m grateful for the swift signing of this bill & hopeful it will be followed by quick action to implement it. Every day Ukraine remains under a barrage of missile & drone strikes risks more death & destruction on the battlefield&in Ukraine’s cities. www.cbsnews.com/video/trump-...

NEW: Reporting shows that the Trump administration is covering up the truth about the number of U.S. troops killed in Trump’s war. It’s a betrayal of American service members and their families.

DOGE wasted $9.5 BILLION taxpayer dollars to pay cancer researchers, park rangers, and so many others to NOT work. Republicans love to talk about waste, fraud, and abuse. So, let's talk about it.

In this week's Intel Briefing, we cover what President Trump really needs to cover with the Chinese President next week: 1️⃣ Ensuring we keep Chinese cars out of America 2️⃣ Holding China accountable for helping Iran target and kill U.S. servicemembers 3️⃣ Stopping export of America’s AI chips to the CCP

This isn't a one-off dispute, it's a stated program — and it's already been tried and lost. Check the AP case, Trump cannot ban outlets based on coverage he doesn’t like. Freedom of press is core to our democracy, and our democracy must survive this self absorbed President.

BREAKING: Trump's consumer watchdog let a subprime auto lender off the hook for trapping customers with built-to-fail loans. But a coalition of bipartisan state AGs took up the case — and they just WON $700 million in relief for Americans.

Diesel prices are at historic highs, shattering previous records nearly every day and forcing my constituents to pay more to heat their homes. The reason: An incompetent President who single-handedly raised energy prices with his reckless war in Iran. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/18/b...

Republicans control the House and the Senate – if they wanted, we could be taking action to respond to these alarming escalations right now. Instead, House Republicans are headed home. In this moment that requires real leadership, they're abandoning ship.

Climate change is getting worse and energy costs are skyrocketing. Yet Trump spent $4 billion in taxpayer dollars to kill offshore wind projects that deliver affordable clean energy and well-paying jobs. We need clean energy now—let's say Yes to Wind.

Presidents with nothing to hide don’t ban reporters. But this President is historically corrupt—so he has a LOT to hide. Stand up for the Free Press. Every leader should condemn this.

Travelers shouldn't pay fortunes in fees for carry-on bags or choosing their seat, which cost airlines less than the inflated fees they charge. My FAIR Fees Act would slash excessive fees, enact cost-saving protections & put consumers first instead of airline billionaires.

Trump is once again trying to use the power of the presidency to punish a free press, now banning CNN, MS NOW, and Politico from the White House. That is the behavior of an authoritarian, and we must defend the press’ right to hold those in power accountable.

As Governor, I’ll expand access to child care across the state. Learn more at amyklobuchar.com/childcare.

For too many Minnesota families, child care is just not affordable or not available. In some cases, it can cost as much as a mortgage. Child care can be the difference between being able to take a job or not, and it is essential for our economy, for children, and for parents.

We all know the anxiety of spending a small fortune on a plane ticket knowing plans change. It doesn’t have to be that way. My Cash Refunds for Cancellations Act would protect the right to a refund up to 2 days before a flight & stop airlines from taking off with people's cash.
