People are asking what they can do to help Minnesota. Come to our state, because it’s a beautiful place. Meet our people. Support our small businesses. Take in a concert. For months, Minnesotans showed the world that we are all neighbors. As soon as you visit, you’ll understand.

Great to join Mayor Frey to meet with local business owners today. So many Minnesota small businesses have been hurt by the ICE surge. But now the ICE is (literally) melting, and it's time to get out and show them our support statewide

Two Minnesotans were killed and many others were hurt, racially profiled, or had their rights violated during this federal surge. Minnesota now needs to move forward and focus on securing justice and accountability for all the harm ICE has caused in our state.

The “love tax.” 💔 Trump’s tariffs are making life more expensive for all Americans. “Not even Cupid is spared.” www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Minnesota has shown the world how to protect democracy and take care of our neighbors. We will continue to stand up for justice and for the rights of all in our state.

The ICE budget that Republicans passed into law does not reflect the values of Minnesota or of America. The $75 billion extra that Republicans gave ICE could have funded three full years of health care tax credits to lower costs for millions of Americans. The American people have had enough.

Your eyes don’t lie. We’ve all seen the horrific videos of ICE in Minnesota. No matter what Republican lawmakers try to tell us or who they try to blame, Americans know the truth about what’s happening here. And it can’t be allowed to happen here — or anywhere else — ever again.

ICE officials are saying “job in Minnesota is done.” What do they think their job is – killing two innocent people, abducting toddlers and shipping them to Texas, detaining legal citizens? ICE didn’t make Minnesota safer – it was Minnesotans who stood together and got ICE out of our state.

An absolutely gutsy performance from Minnesotan Jessie Diggins to win a bronze medal in the 10km freestyle, battling through bruised ribs. Strength and toughness personified.

Yesterday 3 of the 6 U.S. Olympic medal winners were Minnesotans. 1/4 of the U.S. women’s hockey team players were born in Minnesota, and nearly half of them have played in Minnesota. So it is no surprise they have a perfect 4-0 record. The quarterfinals against Italy are next! 🇺🇸 🏒

HUGE news in my fight to take on the Trump Tariffs that have been raising prices and wrecking small businesses and farmers. The House voted last night to finally allow votes on legislation to repeal these tariffs. Now let’s get this done and stop these price hikes.

Thank you to the Bloomington Police Department and Chief Hodges for their work keeping us safe. The fact that the individual arrested was responsible for conducting background checks on new ICE hires should concern every Minnesotan.

For too long, parents have not been able to hold social media companies accountable for harmful content on their platforms. I met with advocates for repealing Section 230, including Minnesotan Bridgette Norring—who lost her son Devin to fentanyl bought on social media—and Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

It took the outcry of a nation to bring 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos and his father back to Minnesota from an ICE detention facility, and now the Trump administration is trying to fast-track their deportations. The cruelty of this administration has no limits.
