Thanks to my running mate Ben Schierer and his entire family (yes, that’s all of them) for a fantastic weekend in Rochester. Now our work begins to bring people together and share our vision of growth, reform, and a better future for Minnesota.

It's Alzheimer’s & Brain Awareness Month and I'm remembering my sister-in-law Tayloe who passed last year after a 15-year Alzheimer's battle. I'm grateful that my bill to improve Alzheimer's prevention, treatment, and care is now law and will keep working to fight this disease.

Election criminals like Tina Peters don’t deserve pardons. They don’t deserve commutations. And they sure as hell don’t deserve a dime of your taxpayer money from Trump’s slush fund. www.ms.now/opinion/tina...

Tina Peters is out of prison and already spreading the same false claims about Colorado elections that led her to commit four felonies in the first place—all in service of Trump’s Big Lie. That’s not what remorse looks like. Read my statement⬇️

The FAA’s refusal to mandate lifesaving technology—urged by the NTSB after the heartbreaking Reagan Airport crash—ought to make all Americans angry. Its cost is a pittance compared to airlines’ proliferating profits. FAA need not wait for Congress to act.

ICE detention centers are the latest Trump corruption scheme. Horrible conditions, terrible medical care, inhumane living conditions, and skyrocketing deaths of those (often wrongly) detained. But the private detention companies? Record profits.

We must cap insulin costs at $35 to provide real financial relief to millions of families. My INSULIN Act would do just that. With 18 bipartisan supporters and counting, this bill has significant momentum. Let's get it passed.

Seven years ago, 12 people were killed and 4 others injured in a senseless shooting at the Virginia Beach Municipal Center. My heart goes out to the victims and families whose lives were forever changed by this act of violence.

While Americans are getting squeezed by rising costs, Trump wants as much as $200 BILLION more for his war with Iran. That’s on top of his $1.5 TRILLION defense budget request. How much is this war really costing Americans? I’m pressing for answers.

Last night the people of the Twin Cities received the JFK Profile in Courage Award. It was an inspiration to be there as Imam Yusuf Abdulle, Natalie Ehret, Carolina Ortiz & Zena Stenvik accepted the award. As Yusuf said: “I encourage everybody to choose to be brave.” That's what Minnesotans did.

This is what happens when you let the opinions of anti-abortion extremists into the doctor's office. They don't care that medication abortion is THE BEST standard of care for miscarriages. All they care about is controlling women's bodies, no matter the outcome.

From his ballroom to his son's cryptocurrency, to insider trading and selling pardons to the highest bidder -- Trump has used the govt as a piggybank. This so-called $1.7 billion anti-weaponization fund is an unprecedented misuse of taxpayer money, and it must be stopped. Our bill does just that.

Housing, child care, and health care costs are soaring under President Trump. Too many young people can't buy a home and build a future in NH. The status quo just isn't working for families, and Congress must take action to deliver relief. www.nhpr.org/nh-news/2026...

RFK Jr. said “the only people who lost coverage were people who were never entitled to coverage.” But higher costs were the #1 reason people in Massachusetts chose to drop their ACA coverage last year. They did everything right, and Trump still ripped away their health care.

Millions of Americans are losing their health insurance for one clear reason: Trump's attacks on healthcare. Trump and Senate Republicans turned their backs on working families and created a healthcare affordability crisis.

$800 MILLION. That's how much more Americans are paying every day on gas thanks to Trump's war with Iran. But guess who's getting richer? Chevron CEO: +$104M ConocoPhillips CEO: +$54M Baker Hughes CEO: +$33M The same Big Oil executives Trump promised to deliver for on day one.

@whitehouse.senate.gov is laying it plain. Working families shouldn’t shoulder the burden while the ultra-wealthy play by different rules. We need to unrig our tax system so we can build an economy that redeems the American Dream.

Health care coverage is too expensive—and Republicans CHOSE to obstruct and block a solution. Republicans are forcing everyone to pay more for the basics while doling out tax breaks for billionaires and giant corporations.
