ALS hits close to home for me. I’ve seen friends and family members impacted and devastated by this cruel disease. That’s why this past week was such a huge win. Senator Murkowski and I passed the Act for ALS through the Senate, extending critical federal funding for ALS research.

I have now visited every county in Minnesota this year – all 87 of them! I do this every year because you can’t know what people need if you don’t show up. As Governor, that’s how I’ll lead – by showing up, listening, and bringing people together to get things done.

Big Oil is at the Supreme Court today facing accountability for decades of deception and harm to our climate. We know that no court can deliver all the justice that communities deserve but the Supreme Court can start by having these corporations pay their share of the climate crisis’ costs.

On World Teachers’ Day, we celebrate the educators who inspire students and uplift communities. As the proud dad of an early childhood educator and husband of a professor, I know how much they do to invest in the next generation. Thank you!

Media outlets exposed that the Pentagon was hiding how many Americans have died in Trump’s war with Iran. That very same day, Trump banned CNN, MS NOW and Politico from the White House. Coincidence? I don't think so.

During Mental Illness Awareness Week, we must continue to shed light on our nation’s mental health crisis and fight for more resources and better access to treatments so that all Americans can get the care they need.

Trump is ignoring bipartisan legislation—legislation he signed into law!—to cut health care and education funding while spending billions on vanity projects and war. What is the Republican Congress doing to stop him? NOTHING.

A year ago, my father was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. I feel the burden of caregiving every single day. Recently, I joined 6,000 caregivers and AARP NJ on a town hall about the difficulties of this. We are in this together and I promise to carry your stories with me.

Hearing firsthand about how the Hungarians have reclaimed their government gave me some real sparks of hope. Just five months ago, a pro-democracy movement in Hungary achieved what many thought was impossible. They beat their authoritarian leader.

Gas and diesel prices are up because Trump started a war and didn't care about what it would cost us at home. @chrispappasnh.bsky.social and I are pushing to suspend the federal gas and diesel taxes to give families a break. Americans shouldn't have to pay for Trump’s mistakes.

Trump promised his war with Iran would end in "about two weeks" back in February. That was seven months ago.

New Mexico has shown that when we make healthy school meals available to every student, we give kids a better chance to focus, learn and succeed. Now I want every kid in America to have the healthy food they need to help them learn and thrive.

Ah, so Trump’s DHS removed *one of two bedrooms* on the luxury private jet and kept the bar, marble bathrooms, and manta ray skin table — for deportations. Okay. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/04/u...

Trump and DOGE set VA back by so much. We need more mental health providers everywhere, but especially at VA. The chaos of this administration is hurting everyone, including our veterans.

This month is Hispanic Heritage Month. Colorado’s history cannot be told without the story of the Hispanic, Latino, and Chicano communities. We’re taking the time to understand how that history has shaped our wonderful state. Resources like History Colorado give us the opportunity to do so.

High prices and rising borrowing costs are squeezing family budgets, forcing more Americans to cut back on things like bowling and dining out. For many families, fun is becoming increasingly out of reach. This is Donald Trump’s economy.

Affordability isn't a scam, or a hoax, or made up like Trump says. It's a very real problem families across the country deal with every day, and it's being made worse by Trump's own policies.

There are a bunch of specific things I like about our permitting bill, beyond the big important stuff — that it will lower electric costs and emissions, and lift wind, solar and battery power (BIG lift for battery), and add LOTS of good jobs.🧵

In addition to infesting government with this creepy crew of flakes and grifters, real national security work is not getting done as they chase imaginary goblins. That’s the real cost of An Audience of One, and losers/grifters who take advantage.

President Trump has weaponized the federal government against Colorado. No American should have to fear political retaliation from their own President.
