Vital to both our national security and economy, Portsmouth Naval Shipyard is part of the lifeblood of New Hampshire's seacoast. It's been one of the great honors of my time in public service to fight for the Shipyard and its stellar civilian workforce. www.seacoastonline.com/story/news/m...

The uniformed military should not be deployed to interfere in our elections by any President. Military leaders should be able to state that easily on that – on the record. It’s critical for our democracy that they uphold the law.

The President has made it clear through speeches, statements, official guidance, and continued legal action that he is seeking to use all possible tools to interfere with the midterms – including publicly lamenting that he did not send Federal forces to the polls in 2020.

Young people crave two things we all need: community & purpose. At the Delaware State Fair, I saw firsthand how community programs like 4-H & FFA are giving young Delawareans both. Read my op-ed on why these programs could help address our youth loneliness epidemic. baytobaynews.com/stories/coon...

Israel’s national security minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, has once again made violent, dehumanizing comments about innocent civilians in Gaza. It is abhorrent and a shameful part of the Netanyahu government.

When my father was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, I went from being a son to being a caregiver. We don't always get to determine how and when we become a caregiver to our loved ones.

The “SAVE” in SAVE Act should stand for Secure Authoritarian Victories Everywhere – because that’s what Trump is trying to do. Hell no!

Republicans STILL don't have a health care plan.
- AK
Trump’s health care cuts put hospitals like Winona at risk — and that puts people like Tom at risk, too. As Governor, I’ll fight for rural hospitals because everyone deserves care close to home.

A stranger found Tom Smart unconscious on the side of the road when he had a heart attack. The hospital that saved him? The same one he’d spent 20 years as a nurse: Winona Health.

Today, my thoughts are with the family of James Foley, a journalist and Granite Stater, who was senselessly murdered by ISIS 12 years ago. As we honor Jim's life and dedication to reporting the truth, we must also recommit to bringing home all Americans held hostages abroad.

The President said he’d pay off the debt in his first term. Well we all knew that was a lie. Instead he ran it up to $40 trillion while he and his family made billions.

7. Supports Marginalized Communities & Veterans: Increases funding for emergency shelter beds, makes it easier for veterans to receive disability income to qualify for rental assistance, and combat bias in appraisals, so all homeowners receive a fair valuation. 8/9
- AK
6. Lowers Costs: This law allows homebuyers to see as much as a $10,000 decrease in the price of manufactured homes and provides a pathway to preserve USDA-supported affordable rental homes in rural areas, including 3,022 units in New Jersey. 7/9

Haitian families on TPS are part of the fabric of our community and our economy. They're neighbors, workers, and friends who have been in the U.S. legally to stay safe from horrific violence in Haiti. It is cruel for Donald Trump to end TPS protections for them now.

As Governor, I’ll focus on rooting out fraud with a top-to-bottom audit of state government, strengthening criminal penalties, and surprise in-person inspections.

When the Minnesota U.S. Attorney’s Office was prosecuting the Feeding Our Future fraud cases, I went to the top of the Justice Department to make sure they had the prosecutors they needed to go after these criminals.

If Republicans in Congress won’t extend the federal tax credits, as Governor I’ll do it on the state level. We need action.

After the Trump administration let the health care tax credit expire, Alex Clark’s premium jumped 46% — nearly $8,000 more for the SAME plan for his family. Minnesotans shouldn’t have to choose between building a future and their family’s health care.

Trump & Republicans have used "fraud" as a pretext to cut essential services that help Americans put food on the table & afford health care. Don't fall for their con. If they actually cared about fraud, they wouldn't have fired Inspectors General across the government.

The biggest housing bill in over 30 years is now law. And it includes a key provision of mine that cuts red tape to build more housing, faster, and lower costs. Growing up, I didn’t always have a bed. But I always had a place to call home. I'm working to make sure every family can say the same.

For a Jewish state to support such violence, given the history of Jewish people fleeing similar terror just a few generations ago, is reprehensible. And Congress should use all the tools we have to demand basic accountability.

The cycle of settler expansion and violence with no consequences must end. And responsibility falls squarely with Prime Minister Netanyahu and his government, who either turn a blind eye or openly support this kind of violence.

There have been hundreds of settler attacks this year in the West Bank, resulting in death and injuries -- including awful incidents this past weekend. Settlers have killed civilians, surrounded homes, burned down villages and mosques, and kept innocent civilians from food and water.

The latest bipartisan housing law we passed this summer will prevent over 9,000 units in Greater Minnesota from falling into disrepair and cuts red tape to spur new housing construction. But there is more to do at all levels to take one the next challenge: insurance costs.

I was able to tour a home being built by Lakes Area Habitat for Humanity in Brainerd as part of a conversation on the housing crisis. Organizations like Lakes Area Habitat are helping solve the housing crisis by building more homes, but tackling skyrocketing insurance costs is the next step.

It can be hundreds of dollars per month on top of your mortgage payments, and every single year, the cost climbs. Home insurance rates jumped 67% for Minnesotans in the last 7 years, with the average homeowner now paying ~$3,500 a year.

Finding a safe and decent place to call home is too expensive in the first place. And for those who can put the money together to own a home, there’s another growing cost: home insurance.
