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.

Good. Someone who calls law enforcement “dumb as dirt” has no business dealing day-to-day with police departments. It’s clear Kosta Ligris was nominated to a Justice Department position because he was loyal to Trump—not to the rule of law. Put forward a serious candidate.

With too many feeling squeezed by rising health care prices, capping insulin prices at $35 a month is a step we can take right now to deliver real financial relief. My INSULIN act would do just that. I was proud to see it advance out of the HELP Committee last week. Now let’s make it law!

Healthcare is a right, not a privilege. Americans deserve healthcare that’s accessible, affordable, and universal. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Granite Staters are paying more every time they go to the grocery store because of Trump's reckless tariffs and illegal war. Thank you to the owners of Richardson's Market in Portsmouth for talking with me about how Trump's policies hurt your small business and the families you serve.

We cannot allow AI to further blur the line between fact and fiction in political campaigns — that's why I’m fighting to pass my AI Ads Act.
- AS
Fraudulent AI-generated political ads that use the voice or likeness of a candidate to misrepresent their position on issues pose a serious threat to our democracy that should concern Americans regardless of their political party. 🧵

Trump promised to cut energy bills in HALF. Now, the price of gas and electricity is through the roof because of his recklessness. Another day, another broken promise.

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

There is no reason big drug companies should charge an arm and a leg for medicine that’s been around for more than 100 years and remains essentially unchanged. I’m pushing to make it just $35 a month.

Trump said the war in Iran would last “four to five weeks.” Nearly five months later, the war drags on with fewer options than ever to end it.

Donald Trump promised to cap credit card interest rates at 10% months ago. Still hasn’t happened. @protectborrowers.bsky.social and @tcfdotorg.bsky.social found every single day Trump fails to act, it’s costing families an extra $368 million in credit card interest.

I hope others in Washington state will join me in calling for Eduardo’s immediate return home so that the courts can fairly consider his case.
- PM
I am demanding that DHS return Eduardo to Washington state so that he may receive due process and have access to counsel—flying Eduardo to Texas away from his lawyers to try and deport him is fundamentally wrong and un-American.
- PM
For the federal government to waste its resources to forcefully detain and deport Eduardo and tear apart an American family is plain sick. Our immigration enforcement should be focused on violent criminals and keeping Americans safe—deporting hardworking people like Eduardo makes no one safer.

On Thursday, ICE needlessly detained Eduardo Aguirre Esparza, a local Seattle small business owner with no criminal history. This is a man who is married to an American citizen and with deep ties to our local community who was working hard to pursue a legal pathway to lawful permanent residence.

Trump has made billions of dollars from being president. He's turned the White House into his personal piggy bank.

The consequences of Trump’s deadly, illegal war are far reaching and he has no plan to get us out and lower costs. We must end the war and focus on lowering costs here at home. apnews.com/article/oil-...

The ROAD to Housing Act includes my bipartisan bill to help more families turn a housing voucher into a home. We made real, bipartisan progress to make housing more affordable, but @warren.senate.gov is right: we can't stop now.

That’s why it’s so important that communities have the resources to prevent wildfires and respond immediately. The Trump Admin is delaying the release of important federal funding that keeps communities safe from wildfires, and I’m leading a group of my colleagues in demanding they release it.

Each year, wildfire season exposes Nevada communities to many dangers, from flames that endanger lives and critical infrastructure to harmful smoke and air pollutants. Wildfires and their smoke don’t stay confined to one state, either.

Trump’s ‘Ratepayer Protection Pledge' is great PR, but it's just that: PR with zero enforcement. If the Trump admin was serious, they would back my Power for the People Act to ensure that you don’t pay higher electricity costs to pay for data centers.

Last week, I met with President Aoun again after our meeting in Beirut in February. We discussed concerns of Michiganders who had family members killed and homes destroyed by Israeli strikes -- and the need for documentation and accountability for this destruction, particularly in southern Lebanon.

Kids are on these apps for hours and it's showing. Grades slipping, confidence shot. These platforms mine kids for data and don't care what it costs their mental health. My bill says if you're under 16, you need your parent's permission to create an account. We have to protect our kids.

This planting season, farmers in Virginia and across the country paid $1,500 more for diesel fuel than they did last year. Between Trump’s war of choice and his reckless tariffs, the president’s policies are driving up costs for the very people who put food on America’s tables.

While families are struggling to afford groceries, Republicans made it harder to get food assistance. Over 4 million people, including an estimated 1.5 million children, have already lost SNAP benefits. The consequences of the "One Big Beautiful Bill" are here and they're ugly.

I will block Donald Trump’s push to rename Penn Station for himself. Penn Station needs to be rebuilt, not rebranded. It is a public building, paid for by the taxpayers, and it belongs to the 600,000 people who walk through it every single day. www.fox5ny.com/news/schumer...

For decades, federal regulations helped keep food clean and safe. Cuts to the agencies that enforce those regulations may make life easier for big producers, but they put all our health at risk. Again and again, this administration refuses to put the people first.

Before the President's war in Iran, Americans were already struggling to afford everyday essentials like groceries. It’s only gotten worse since. The President said he was going to lower costs. Instead, he’s making life harder for American families at every turn.
