Spoke with the Mayor of Two Harbors. The winds are still a major issue today with the fires up north, but we hope the rain will help tomorrow. This video is an incredible example of pilots taking water from Lake Superior to fight the fires.

NEWS: @baldwin.senate.gov and I are calling on the FAA to review how reduced crew size with certain airlines is impacting evacuation standards. In other words, you deserve to know how less flight attendants impacts your safety if disaster strikes. We're demanding answers.

I know from my personal experience and conversations in New Jersey: members of the Sandwich Generation are everywhere. We need support. Conversations like this is where that starts.

The U.S. House passed legislation to allow year-round E15, which was supported by MN’s entire delegation. I have led this bipartisan bill in the Senate because expanding biofuels will help lower prices at the pump, support farmers, & strengthen our energy independence. Now the Senate needs to act.

Trump wants to let special interests and giant development companies trample our public lands. He wants extraction over conservation. Yet ANOTHER give away to Big Oil and Gas. Not on my watch.

When the brave men and women of our Armed Forces are given a mission, they never ask, “Why me?” They don’t ask, “But will I be safe?” They pack their rucksacks, lace up their boots and do what’s asked of them. Time after time. Tour after tour.

Between the Trump Tariff Tax and Trump's war in Iran, working Americans are paying more just to buy gas and groceries.

Trump's illegal war in Iran is spiking inflation & prices nationwide. Trump’s & Senate Republicans’ solution: ignore rising costs & push for $1 BILLION for Trump's gold-plated ballroom — on the American taxpayers’ dime. All while taking no action on higher costs for the American people.

U.S. arms sales to Taiwan aren't negotiating chips – they're required by law under the Taiwan Relations Act. More than that, they're central to a free and open Indo-Pacific, and our own national and economic security.

When President Trump’s term is mercifully up, he can rest assured that statues of him will likely be erected, and forever enshrined, at the headquarters of the few who actually benefitted from his tenure: tobacco giants Reynolds American and Altria.

Patel’s disrespect is boundless—disrespect for ethical limits & rule of law, disrespect for national security & professionalism, & now disrespect for this sacred site & our nation’s heroes. He merits no respect. He must go.

Firefighters and emergency responders are battling dangerous wildfire conditions across northeastern Minnesota. They are doing heroic work. All should continue to follow local emergency guidance and avoid closed areas so crews can safely do their work.

As the son of a WWII veteran and a former Lieutenant Commander in the U.S. Navy Reserve, I have a deep admiration and appreciation for the men and woman serving in uniform. This Armed Forces Day, and every day, my thoughts are with them as they sacrifice so much to keep us safe and secure.

15 years ago today, Endeavour left the launch pad for the last time. I was training for what would be my last mission when Gabby was shot. Four months after that day, she was on a rooftop 3 miles away, watching me go to space for the last time.

Caring for my dad, I saw just how hard navigating our healthcare system can be. Each of us has faced that struggle, and it's why, as senators, we're working every day to make it easier for everyone to find care for themselves and their loved ones.

These gerrymandered maps only work if we don’t show up. That is what they are counting on. These maps will break under the pressure of turnout.

On Armed Forces Day, we recognize the bravery and sacrifice of American service members who put their lives on the line to keep our communities safe and fight for liberty abroad. Thank you to all the men and women in our military. As a nation, we are forever indebted to you.

Honored to celebrate the opening of La CASA today in Villa Victoria—the largest Latino cultural center in New England. La CASA will be a new home for art, activism, and opportunity. A place for communities to come together to protect collective memories and create new legacies.

Amid his disastrous war of choice and self-created economic crisis, Donald Trump flew halfway around the world to flatter a foreign dictator—and came back with nothing to show for it. Nothing about that is "America first."

Trump is actively investing in companies which his administration regulates & awards taxpayer funded contracts to. Trump is making millions off your tax dollars, all the while his policies are spiking inflation & putting life out of reach for millions of working Americans.

No, Tina Peters should not have had her sentence commuted. She broke Colorado laws and was convicted by a jury of her peers. Here’s my statement:

Extreme weather events like extreme heat are not only harmful to our health, they can also put our ability to access clean drinking water at risk. NV has seen some of the hottest summers ever recorded, which is why I’m introducing a bill to ensure our communities can access safe drinking water.

Big Tobacco is always looking to hook kids. For young people flavors makes all the difference. FDA’s decision to authorize flavored e-cigs ensures a new generation will become addicted to these dangerous products.

I had a simple question for Trump's HUD Secretary. Could he help house more people with LESS funding? After all, Trump wants to slash funding for housing & spend $1.5 TRILLION on his war budget. Instead, he started blaming Joe Biden. JOE BIDEN is NOT the President! Get a grip.

The Supreme Court's decision reiterates what we already knew to be true: mifepristone is safe and effective. There’s still much to regain for reproductive healthcare, but this decision is a start.

When Trump pushes our allies and partners away, he’s not only making us weaker, he’s giving a gift to President Xi. I’m working with colleagues from both sides to hold this President accountable to our commitments and to our national security.

President Trump’s war of choice in Iran has sent the cost of fertilizer and gas through the roof for our farmers. That is not just theoretical for farmers in Wisconsin, and today, I toured Skenandore Farm in Seymour to hear just what it means for them.

As is clear from the President's summit in China, this is an Administration in search of a coherent foreign policy. And because of that, the American people are paying the price at the gas pump and the grocery store.

This reeks of corruption. Already, the “ice cream window” is open at DOJ for cash payouts to his cronies.

Drastic cuts to the CDC have deadly consequences. We are not responding to Hantavirus as fast as we should be because Trump and RFK Jr. have fired hundreds of disease experts. This admin needs to fully restore CDC’s capabilities so we can better respond to these threats.

Arizona families are working hard, but costs continue to rise — making it nearly impossible for many to keep up. Housing, health care, groceries, and energy costs need to come down so people can get ahead, instead of just getting by.

Reproductive rights are under attack: Mifepristone today, IVF tomorrow, & contraception after. This isn't hypothetical. We're seeing the anti-abortion playbook unfold in real time. There's a pro-choice majority in the U.S. Using the law, our voices, & our votes–we have to win.

Huh. Why would Boeing (airplane company) and Toyota (car company) donate a MILLION bucks to Trump's Transportation Secretary's pet project? Could these billionaire corporations expect a return on their donation with regulatory favors? Looks like corruption in plain sight.
