On Social Media Harms Victim Remembrance Day, we honor those we've lost and the families advocating for change. I worked to pass the TAKE IT DOWN Act to combat AI-generated deepfakes, and I'll keep fighting for stronger protections for children and greater accountability for social media companies.

The most significant federal housing bill in 30 years has passed out of Congress — the bipartisan ROAD to Housing Act. It will help build more homes, limit investors from price-gouging housing, and cut red tape for manufactured homes.

The Senate voted to put a check on this administration’s war with Iran. Right now, the administration is reportedly asking Congress for roughly $80 billion to cover the cost of the war. This war should never have been started in the first place.

This is ABC journalist Jonathan Karl’s video of the peeling paint that Trump claims implicated the reporter in a crime. Looks like he’s simply doing his job. Maybe the President should do his!

I voted yes on the ROAD to Housing Act to increase the number of homes and limit private equity from buying up single-family homes. Americans should have a fair shot at buying and rehabbing a home without being priced out by out-of-state investors. Now this heads to the House.

One year ago, a storm tore through Bemidji, destroying millions of trees, damaging homes, and leaving a path of destruction. It also revealed the strength and generosity of a city that came together to rebuild and emerge even stronger. https://ow.ly/OWTV50ZfoNp

Making life more affordable starts with making housing more affordable. My housing plan will reduce barriers to building more homes, lower costs, and create opportunity across Minnesota.

Slashing Medicaid is threatening hospitals across Minnesota, including rural hospitals. We have to reverse these harmful cuts. https://www.mprnews.org/story/2026/06/22/frustrated-rural-hospitals-in-minnesota-are-still-waiting-on-federal-funding

First the Reflecting Pool turned green with algae. Then the paint started peeling. Now it's headed for another round of repairs. Another example of misplaced priorities when Americans are focused on the rising cost of everyday life.

It was an extraordinary opening ceremony for the 2026 Special Olympics USA Games here in Minnesota. More than 3,000 athletes from across the country are here to compete, inspire, and show what's possible. I can't wait to see what they'll accomplish this week. Let the games begin!

John’s choice for a Happy Father’s Day was the bog walk at the U of M Arb. We came upon a very happy turtle basking in the sun AND algae completely uninterested in the reflecting pool controversy.

Some of my best memories are bike rides across Minnesota with my dad Jim, including a 255-mile ride from Plymouth to Ely that we completed in just two days. Missing those adventures, especially today on Father’s Day.

Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there — especially to John. From Abigail's smallest days to now, he's never left her side. Dad of the year, every year. Abigail and I love you!

John and I were honored to walk with Team Minnesota at tonight’s Special Olympics Opening Ceremony. We’re so excited to welcome all the athletes, families, and spectators to Minnesota. Good luck to the 3,000 athletes competing this week!

Congratulations to everyone who raced in Duluth at the 50th Grandma’s Marathon! With Lake Superior right alongside the course, it’s truly one of the most beautiful marathons in the country.

I joined the Juneteenth celebration in Rondo to celebrate the end of slavery and honor a neighborhood whose history reflects both the challenges we've faced and the progress we've made. With voting rights still under attack it is a reminder that the fight for justice never ends.

A well-deserved honor to Bemidji Mayor Jorge Prince for his exceptional leadership after last summer's devastating storm. He helped guide the city through a difficult time and brought out the very best in a community that came together to rebuild. https://ow.ly/e2Ca50ZeLul

Stubborn optimism. Unflinching courage. Not melting from the heat. All that while being “a first.” That pretty much sums it up.

161 years ago, enslaved Black Americans in Galveston, Texas learned they were free. Juneteenth reminds us of both the promise of freedom and the responsibility to build a more just nation. Today we celebrate that while recognizing that freedom is still a work in progress.

Good news: A new partnership between Pope Leo Village and Habitat for Humanity will build five new affordable homes at The Heights development in St. Paul. Another example of the incredible work Habitat is doing across our state, from Marshall to Bemidji, helping Minnesotans build a better future.

AI can clone anyone's likeness now — yours or even your child’s. Today in the Senate Judiciary Committee we passed the NO FAKES Act — bipartisan legislation I lead with Senators Coons, Blackburn and Tillis — to protect people from having their voice and likeness replicated without their permission.

Minnesotans are stretching every dollar as grocery prices spike. This administration’s policies have been driving up costs, and Minnesotans are footing the bill. https://www.startribune.com/inflation-food/601852868

The President said it’d be the most beautiful reflecting pool anyone's ever seen. $14 million later, it turned green with algae in days. Americans need lower costs, not expensive distractions and misplaced priorities.

Saddened by the loss of Raja Chinnakotla. A recent graduate & homecoming king at Edina High School, Raja had a gift for bringing people together & making all feel welcome. His parents, Ann and Srinath, & his sister Adelle filled his life with joy & love. We are holding the family in our hearts.

Reliable broadband is essential for families, farmers, students, and small businesses. Building on my legislation to bring federal broadband funding to MN, my Last Mile Initiative will connect the 120,000 households that still lack access and finally bring broadband to every corner of our state.

My mom and dad bought my childhood home in Plymouth with a GI loan. That's what a fair shot looked like then. Today it means cutting red tape to allow the private sector to build more affordable homes of all kinds, and lowering the cost of housing for Minnesotans.

I honored one of Vikings fans’ favorite podcasts, “Purple Daily,” with the National Association of Broadcasters Service to Community Award. Phil Mackey, Judd Zulgad, Thor Nystrom, and Declan Goff raised nearly $60,000 for Minnesota nonprofits in 2025, including Annunciation Catholic School.

Access to child care is one of the biggest challenges facing rural Minnesota. Ottertail is showing what's possible when local leaders, small businesses, and families come together to find solutions. I'll keep working to support efforts like these across Minnesota. https://ow.ly/Hita50ZcNg0

With $300 billion, we could end homelessness, fund cancer research for 40 years, and give every child free pre-K for over 7 years. Instead, Trump is sending it to Iran. This is not America First. Not even close.

Lucas Franco and the Laborers' Union get it: you can't solve a housing crisis without building. That means cutting red tape, working with the private sector, and lowering the cost of housing for Minnesotans. That's exactly what we're going to do.

I’m introducing w/ Sen Markey the Asal Sayas National Strategy on Young Adult Cancers Act, named in memory of Asal, my incredible former staffer who we recently lost after a valiant battle with cancer. It builds on Asal's work to strengthen research, diagnoses, & treatments for young adult cancers.

The President promised the American people that his fancy new ballroom wasn’t going to be built with taxpayer dollars. Another promise he didn't keep. We've just learned that half of it is paid for by your money.

People across the country are struggling with higher costs while the White House is being used to promote a UFC event and Trump's crypto coin. Completely misplaced priorities when Americans need leaders focused on lowering costs and getting things done.

John and Yvette Hoffman survived an unthinkable attack one year ago — and their daughter Hope saved them by calling 911. Today, John is back serving in the State Senate, committed to making Minnesota better and Yvette is as strong and engaged with the world as ever. That's Minnesota's courage.

We lost Melissa and Mark a year ago. Woke up to a sunny morning in their honor. They loved to go out with their dog Gilbert or garden or just hang out with friends and family. Remember them today and go out and do something good.
