People are still being profiled. People are still being wrongfully detained. People still can’t go to work or school out of fear. Do not look away and do not buy any political spin coming out of DHS. ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA.

Predicting that this week we’ll hear more conciliatory words from the Administration regarding Minnesota (since they’re starting to realize that ICE has become politically toxic) but everyone outside of Minnesota needs to know that nothing on the ground has changed.

Measles cases are rising rapidly, and the Trump administration says it's the "cost of doing business." This is our kids' health on the line.

Medical schools in the Caribbean are raking in millions in U.S. student aid while skirting the requirements U.S.-based medical schools are bound to. I introduced the Foreign Medical School Accountability Fairness Act to ensure all schools that receive federal dollars are held to the same standards.

Let’s be honest: America needs new nukes about as much as President Trump deserves a Nobel Peace Prize. A new nuclear arms race is not the answer. Fewer nuclear weapons is.

New Mexicans who have suffered from radiation exposure have waited far too long for justice. I was proud to help expand RECA so New Mexicans can receive the compensation they deserve. This new online tool will make it easier for New Mexicans to apply and receive compensation. Apply today.

Work on the Hudson Tunnel Project stops in 4 days unless the Trump administration unfreezes the funds Congress approved for the Gateway Program. With 95,000 jobs on the line, it's time to keep New Jerseyans at work.

Rising housing costs. Tariffs pushing up prices. Families facing spiking health care premiums. But rather than working to ease the economic burden felt by many, the President is focused on enriching himself – to the tune of $10 billion. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/30/u...

I am always amazed by California's amazing natural treasures. Thanks to the Monterey Bay Aquarium, I got to go behind the scenes and learn more about their efforts to protect our costal lands, and to bring back the sea otter population.

It’s been a month since Republicans sent health premiums skyrocketing. Now, over 1 million Americans have been priced out of their coverage & millions more are struggling to stay insured. Senate Republicans could end this today by passing the bipartisan House-passed bill.

Pam Bondi has sued Washington state to get sensitive voter data. I’m standing strong against efforts to undermine our voting system. Democracies don't grow on trees. They need to be protected, defended, and fought for. My letter to AG Bondi ⬇️

Illinois is going to lose billions of dollars because of President Trump and Congressional Republicans’ Medicaid cuts. Any affordability agenda must restore funding for Medicaid and ensure Americans can afford their health care.

My mom taught 2nd grade until she was seventy. People still tell me she was their favorite teacher. As I said to the Education MN conference, day and night, our teachers are doing it all. They're keeping students learning and bringing essentials to families scared to leave home because of ICE.

Reminder this #NationalCancerPreventionMonth: The Trump administration wanted to make deep cuts to cancer and Alzheimer’s research. Why? To pay for tax cuts for the rich. I’m fighting it because families need cures.

After 9/11, the air wasn't safe and Ground Zero was covered with toxins. But these heroes answered the call to serve — recovering remains and rebuilding our city after the attacks. It's up to us to make sure 9/11 survivors and first responders get the care they need. We can't fail them.

Americans are spending 9% more on heating bills so far during the Trump presidency. Now more than ever, we need programs like LIHEAP, which helps families keep their homes warm as temperatures drop. While Trump tries to destroy LIHEAP, I’ll keep fighting to expand it.

Corporate landlords are pricing families out of homeownership and affordable rent. We need to crack down on Wall Street buying up homes and driving up costs, and make it easier for working families to buy a house and afford rent.

They are seizing ballots. Raiding homes without warrants. Gunning Americans down in the street. Every alarm bell is blaring. The question is: Will we listen?

It's been over a month since the ACA's enhanced premium tax credits expired, and we're already seeing the effects – spiking premiums and millions opting out of coverage. It’s time for Republicans to join us to ensure Americans have access to affordable, reliable health care.

Last week, I voted no on the bill that included funding for ICE. I was unable to support more funding without serious, legislated change.

Cryptocurrency is a notoriously risky asset that is vulnerable to financial crashes. But Senate Republicans voted down my amendment that would have prevented American taxpayers from being on the hook to pay for a crypto bailout.

It’s Black History Month! This month and always, we celebrate the many contributions of Black Americans in VA and across the U.S. I'm inspired by Black leaders who have changed VA for the better, like Barbara Rose Johns, whose contribution is now honored in the Capitol.

Republicans’ health care cuts are leaving thousands of Michiganders uninsured and making it harder for critical organizations like the Washtenaw County Health Project to support those uninsured families. This will only drive up costs even more for everyone.

After Donald Trump took office, companies linked to Donald Trump Jr. got defense contracts worth tens of MILLIONS of dollars. Coincidence? @blumenthal.senate.gov, @kim.senate.gov and I are investigating what could be a giant conflict of interest.

Tonight I spoke at a powerful vigil hosted by VA workers to honor Alex Pretti, a devoted VA ICU nurse who cared for our veterans. His last words — “Are you okay?” — reflect the compassion he brought to his work and his life, and now inspire Minnesotans and our nation.
