I’m honored to have the endorsement of the Minnesota Firefighters. More than 2,000 Minnesota firefighters, paramedics, and dispatchers answer the call every day to keep their communities safe.

TODAY: New SNAP cuts are kicking in because of Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill." 5 million people have already lost food assistance, including 1.5 million+ kids since the bill was enacted. No kid deserves to go hungry so Trump can give his billionaire buddies another tax handout.

It’s been over a year since the Trump Administration chose to shut down 988’s Press 3 option for LGBTQ+ youth in crisis. I wrote a law requiring them to restore it. I’m glad this lifesaving help is back, but these political games are putting lives at risk. www.wbay.com/2026/09/30/s...

This is not my vision of America, and the good news is that I know there are more of us than there are of them.
- ES
The American people are looking for a path through the dark and into the light. But right now, there are two fundamentally different visions of America. President Trump thinks America is the Titanic, and he's charging the passengers for a seat on the lifeboat.

If Donald Trump and congressional Republicans won’t take action, I will. As Governor, I’ll create a state tax credit to bring down costs for small business owners, farmers, and Minnesotans who get their insurance through the individual market. Ten states already do this. Minnesota can too.

Families across the country – including in Minnesota – are facing rising health insurance premiums after the Trump administration let the health care premium tax credits expire.

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law provided historic investments in Colorado roads, bridges, transit, and airports. With billions in funding set to expire today, Congress must pass a bipartisan surface transportation reauthorization that protects these investments and keeps critical projects moving.

There is a well-worn authoritarian playbook: when a leader feels like they’re in trouble, they create a crisis that only they can solve. That’s my biggest concern as we get closer to the November elections. President Trump has been using every tool at his disposal to affect the outcome in November.

President Trump canceled over $800 million in funding that Congress approved and he signed into law. What was the funding for? Education, housing, small businesses, and health research. He wants ballrooms and arches for himself and cuts for everyone else.

Arlington Cemetery is hallowed ground. A final resting place for our fallen heroes who were brave enough to serve. How dare this five-time draft dodger dishonor them by trying to erect a monument to his own vanity? Veterans will not let him get away with it.

So let me get this straight: There's no money for child care or health care, but millions in taxpayer dollars are lying around to use for illegal political ads promoting Trump? This is HISTORIC CORRUPTION—and I'm doing everything I can to get them pulled down.

That’s what early detection does. So this Breast Cancer Awareness Month, please get screened. I will fight to make sure Minnesotans can actually afford the care they need.

A few years ago, a woman named Melissa wrote to me after I shared my own breast cancer story. She made an appointment after she heard what happened to me. They found a lump. She was diagnosed with Stage 2 breast cancer — caught early, because she went in. Today, she’s cancer-free.

In that spirit, Senator Pete Ricketts and I are introducing legislation to modernize the Endangered Species Act and to help our most vulnerable species survive and recover.
- AS
Over 50 years ago, Congress passed the Endangered Species Act with a unanimous vote in the Senate. Senators banded together across party lines because doing our part to help species survive and reach recovery must be a bipartisan cause.

Trump is using your taxpayer money on ads to boost his own image. This administration is the epitome of waste, fraud, and abuse.

Why would ICE hide the medical reports of people who died in its custody? Because they show that many of those who died were medically neglected by the agency responsible for their care. These damning reports display the extent of ICE’s callous cruelty.

Trump fired Western Washington's U.S. attorney less than an hour after he was sworn in. Today a judge put him back. The president doesn't get to ignore the law to install his loyalists. This is a win for our democracy.

For the typical worker, more than half of every dollar of income growth is going right back out the door in debt payments. This new report from @tcfdotorg.bsky.social and @protectborrowers.bsky.social makes it clear: the economy is rigged against working families.

Yesterday, organizations across the country saw grant funding they use to provide housing for vulnerable communities expire. And HUD has done nothing to address it. This is hurting my constituents, and why I'm pressing HUD to right this wrong. www.nhpr.org/nh-news/2026...

Elon Musk advising Trump on warfare is just handing over your taxpayer money to a trillionaire. Musk will push his AI and space technologies, make money from defense contracts, then pour that money into MAGA campaigns. Corruption in plain sight.

Doctors shouldn’t be punished for providing their patients with legal abortion care—and extremists in Louisiana have no business dictating what doctors in Seattle can and can't do. This was never about states' rights—it was ALWAYS about banning abortion nationwide.

Trump has given up on winning over the electorate, so he’s trying to silence it. In November, that electorate will send him a resounding message of defeat once and for all.

Donald Trump has waged an all-out war on free and fair elections in the United States. He’s tried to disenfranchise millions of Americans, kill vote-by-mail, and make it harder for people to make their voices heard in their democracy. We have defeated him at every turn.

CEO compensation has increased 1,316% since 1978. And worker compensation? Just 28%. The system is rigged. We need to start taxing the rich so they pay their fair share.

Trump's traded Google, Meta, XAI, and Nvidia stock all year. Is it any surprise he doesn't want real AI guardrails? AI companies will not regulate themselves. This kind of inaction is what happens when a President is beholden to their own financial interests, not yours. 1/2
