Honored to earn the support of End Citizens United. At a time when our democracy is facing unprecedented challenges, I will continue to fight to protect Minnesotans' freedom to vote and make sure we have fair and secure elections.

From Kellogg, which saw 25 inches of snow, to the Twin Cities and across our state, Minnesotans are stepping up to help seniors and others remove snow.

Americans already struggling with rising costs are now facing higher gasoline prices. Meanwhile, this Administration hasn’t made the case for this war or laid out a strategic path forward. This is not leadership.

Today is St. Patrick’s Day—and my mom’s birthday. She was named Rose after “My Wild Irish Rose.” Thinking of her today.

We don’t need any more backroom deals that benefit corporations. We need lower prices. That's why I'm introducing legislation to ensure that courts have the tools to review antitrust settlements and approve only those that are fair to consumers and small businesses. variety.com/2026/music/n...

Congrats to the Gopher Women’s Basketball team on a great season and a 4-seed in the NCAA Tournament. A Minnesota–Green Bay matchup during March Madness? Sounds like a good way to start the tournament. 🏀

Across-the-board tariffs are raising costs for small businesses, farmers, and families. I introduced legislation to stop the administration from continuing these tariffs so we can bring down costs and get our economy back on track. www.wadenapj.com/news/local/k...

"All the Empty Rooms" speaks to an experience that has become too universal. The children murdered in these shootings have left a heartbreaking void. Parents from Uvalde to Annunciation understand this pain. Such a deserving Oscar win and such an important story.

In true Minnesota fashion, people are stepping up to help one another through this winter storm—from pushing cars out of drifts to lending a hand to stranded drivers.

Washington Post headline: Trump backs FCC chief’s threat to broadcasters, criticizing Iran war coverage Hey, if the President can’t handle the true coverage about his war and his gas prices, why not come before Congress and tell us the endgame. The media will cover verbatim.

After the health care tax credits expired, 1 in 3 Americans—about 82 million people—are skipping meals, delaying care, or borrowing money just to pay medical bills. That’s why we’ve been fighting to restore the health care tax credits, so people aren't forced to make impossible choices.

Melissa Hortman worked to create Minnesota’s Community Solar Garden Program—opening the door for more families to benefit from clean energy. The Minnesota House just passed a bill unanimously to name the program in her honor. A fitting way to honor her legacy.

No one serving the public should be able to use confidential government information for financial gain. I introduced legislation with Senator Merkley to ban federal officials from trading on prediction markets and crack down on corruption.

An important new U.N. investigation finds Russia’s abduction of thousands of Ukrainian children amounts to crimes against humanity. The world must stand together to reunite these children with their families and hold those responsible accountable.

Some good news: We just passed bipartisan legislation in the Senate to build more homes, drive down costs, and to limit the number of homes private corporations can buy up over people just trying to afford the American dream.

It isn't just gas prices — everything from groceries to travel costs could cost more for Minnesotans because of this war. The Administration still has not made the case or laid out a strategic path forward.

You shouldn’t have to pay a small fortune to see your favorite artist in concert. Instead of giving consumers the relief they deserve, this Administration settled the Live Nation/Ticketmaster case. Fans deserve better—and I’ll keep fighting for real competition.

I’m honored to have earned the support of LIUNA’s 14,000 laborers & skilled construction workers across Minnesota. From supporting infrastructure & jobs to making it easier to get skills training, my priority as Governor will be to support & expand our economy and good paying jobs in Minnesota.

I’ve worked with families and advocates at Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy for years to accelerate research and treatments for muscular dystrophy. We’ve made real progress—but we won’t stop until every family has a cure. Grateful for this award recognizing that work.

I’ve long led bipartisan efforts to make E15 available year-round. It’s a commonsense way to decrease our reliance on foreign oil and support our farmers.

This settlement with Live Nation-Ticketmaster fails to lower costs, help artists, or protect fans. States should keep fighting, and I’ll be introducing legislation to stop corrupt antitrust settlements. variety.com/2026/music/n...

This week the Senate passed our bipartisan bill to expand free credit monitoring to every member of our armed forces. It is one small thing we can do to strengthen the financial security of military families.

In 2023 I chaired an antitrust hearing on Live Nation/Ticketmaster after the Taylor Swift concert debacle. It was clear then that this three-headed monopoly (ticketing, venues, promotion) must be broken up. DOJ undermined the case and hurt fans. Ticket prices won’t go down.

This settlement falls short of what fans deserve. Breaking up Live Nation-Ticketmaster is the only way to loosen its grip on venues, artists, and fans. I'm introducing a bill to stop corrupt antitrust settlements and I'm glad states plan to continue the case to protect consumers.

A hard-working single mom shouldn’t have to wonder how long groceries will last — yet millions do. Food banks are stepping up every day to help our neighbors who struggle to afford the basics—but we must do more to lower costs for Americans.

I stopped by Loma Bonita in Richfield, a brand new grocery store that opened in November. Like so many small businesses across the state, they’ve been through a lot this year. But people are showing up to support small businesses. Just look at the long lines!

Minnesotans standing up made the biggest difference, and the hearings showed Secretary Noem couldn’t answer for dragging a U.S. citizen from his home or for calling Alex Pretti and Renee Good “domestic terrorists.”

Secretary Noem refused to take responsibility for the deaths of Alex Pretti and Renee Good or for agents pulling over off-duty officers and dragging innocent U.S. citizens out of their homes. Minnesota stood up and spoke out. It is no surprise that she's being removed.
