Back when he was Moorhead's Police Chief, Dave Ebinger and I worked together to reduce crime. Now as a Clay County Commissioner, he'll be a great partner as we work to give local leaders more tools to expand housing, child care, broadband, and infrastructure.

Senator Rob Kupec is bullish on the future of Greater Minnesota. So are Ben and I. Our plan will expand our rural economy by opening new markets for farmers, creating more opportunities for businesses, and helping families afford housing, health care, and child care.

Steelworkers have built Minnesota and our country. I’ve worked with them on serious economic issues like steel dumping from foreign countries. As Governor, I'll fight for good-paying union jobs.

From a farm outside of Moorhead, to Hugo's in East Grand Forks, to the electric coop in Halstad, a community picnic in Mahnomen/White Earth, tourism in Red Lake Falls, & Arctic Cat in Thief River Falls…it’s been a jam-packed few days of impressive things happening in NW Minnesota. Need more housing.

Somehow the article’s subtitle “Here’s what we know” seems just unnecessary… WE KNOW Trump made $1.4 billion from crypto last year. Here’s what we know. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2026/07/02/trump-made-14-billion-crypto-last-year-heres-what-we-know/

Farmers call it “a perfect storm of ugly.” Tariffs. Rising input costs. Cuts to rural health care. These headwinds are real, but they're not an excuse. If elected governor, I will find common ground and deliver real results for Greater Minnesota.

Great to join COPAL and State Senator Liz Boldon in Rochester last week to celebrate the anniversary of its Southeast Initiative Office. For years, their work has lifted up Latino communities across the region and made Minnesota stronger.

In East Grand Forks where Ben & I visited family-owned Hugo’s Family Marketplace — Northwest Minnesota’s 2025 Minnesota Grown Retailer of the Year! Our plan to expand our rural economy supports the Minnesota Grown program so local farmers can brand, market & sell more Minnesota-grown products.

Today at the Nelson family farm outside Moorhead, my running mate Ben Schierer & I unveiled our plan to expand Minnesota's rural and agricultural economy. The farm has been in the Nelson family for four generations & we need to keep it that way. Their 100-year-old grandma Dorothy was there & agrees!

Kids who grow up in rural Minnesota should be able to stay in rural Minnesota. That’s why today, at a farm outside Moorhead, Ben and I released our plan to expand Minnesota’s rural and agricultural economy and make sure that people are able to live, work, and raise a family in rural Minnesota.

We lost a pioneer today. Karen Clark was a friend and a leader on marriage equality in MN and stood up for her district time and time again. She is someone who helped me when I first got started in politics. She was a mentor to so many! John & I are thinking of her family and everyone who loved her.

As we innovate, our workforce must too. Dr. Behfar, a Mayo Clinic surgeon and biotech company founder, sees the need firsthand. That's why we'll connect K-12, trades, and colleges to expand workforce pathways and develop the talent Minnesota needs right here at home.

Minnesota has 11,600 registered apprentices. I want to add 10,000 more — working with businesses and trade unions to expand apprenticeships into biotech, health care, manufacturing, and agriculture. It’s already happening in Rochester. Let’s expand it across the state.

U.S. District Judge David Doty devoted nearly four decades to the federal bench with fairness, integrity, and a deep commitment to the rule of law. He made a lasting impact on our state and country. John and I are keeping his family and loved ones in our thoughts. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

Preparing our workforce starts long before someone walks through the door of a college or apprenticeship. That’s why as Governor, I’ll use proven evidence-based approaches to drive real results for our K-12 students.

When I’m Governor, we’ll ban cell phones and other mobile devices in all K–12 classrooms and work with school districts to set screen-time limits. We’ll bring proven curricula to Minnesota — phonics-based reading and quality math instruction. Because Minnesota's kids deserve nothing but the best.

If you’re willing to work, you deserve a path to success. That means quality education, apprenticeships, workforce programs, and credentials that lead to good jobs. As Governor, I’ll make sure Minnesotans have the skills to build a good life here at home with 10,000 more apprenticeships and more.

The President needs to sign the ROAD to Housing Act. Today at one of Minnesota's largest modular apartment buildings, I joined Sen. Smith & housing advocates Anne Mavity, Mary Tingerthal & Emily Stewart to highlight how this bipartisan bill will help build more homes & make housing more affordable.

Over 180,000 Minnesotans — like Gwen Elliot — live in manufactured home communities. When her park was bought by a private equity firm, she needed protections that didn’t exist. As Governor, I’ll work to stop excessive fees and guarantee residents an opportunity to buy the land beneath their home.

Minnesota has a shortage of about 100,000 homes. Congress passed bipartisan legislation that cuts red tape, lowers costs, and makes it easier to build more houses. That's what families in Minnesota and across the country need. It's time the president signed it.

BREAKING: Trump has said he won’t sign the bipartisan ROAD to Housing Act — the biggest housing affordability bill in a generation. He's choosing politics over people again once again. In the end, the votes are there to override a veto.
