Woke up thinking about the fact that 157 – nearly 77% – of my Republican colleagues voted yesterday against my own family continuing to be recognized under the law – including two of my colleagues from Minnesota.
I guess family values only apply to some families.

President Biden called Rep. Angie Craig — who was assaulted last week in her DC apartment building — to offer his support for her, according to a person familiar with the matter. Vice President Harris called Craig Thursday afternoon, the source said.

My wife Cheryl and I got married in 2008, but our marriage was not recognized by the federal government for seven more years.
Today I voted to pass the Respect for Marriage Act because I know firsthand that politicians have no business deciding who you can love or marry.

The big government versus small government debate is a false choice. We just need a competent government. Good government is getting more than 2 million doses of the vaccine into American arms every day. Bad government lets Americans freeze to death in their own homes.

They told us they would restrict reproductive rights and they did.
Now they’re telling us they will slash Medicare and Social Security if they take back power.
Believe them when they tell you what they will do.

Not only is it illegal to fire striking workers, it’s insulting that a member of the Senate would even suggest it. Working people deserve better.
“I think Ronald Reagan gave us a great example when federal employees decided they were gonna strike … You strike, you're fired. Simple concept to me.”

Tyler, I didn’t spend a dime of taxpayer money upgrading any of these flights. And I’ve got the receipts to prove it!
Can you say the same about your mileage reimbursements? In the spirit of transparency, how about we both release our logs and settle this? What do you say?
This is literally you having your constituents foot the bill for you to fly in first class and comfort plus, while Minnesotans in the Second District are paying record-high gas prices and struggling to put food on the table due to inflation.

This is my first 2024 opponent, Mike. Mike doesn't care that Minnesotans voted overwhelmingly in favor of reproductive rights in 2022, because he thinks politicians should be able to control women’s bodies.

Over 1 million Americans are rationing their insulin because they can’t keep up with its cost.
I wrote the bipartisan bill to cap insulin copays at $35/month & got it signed into law for seniors on Medicare. I’ll never stop fighting to lower the cost of prescription drugs.
More than 1.3 million American adults with diabetes skipped doses, delayed buying or otherwise rationed doses of insulin due to escalating cost of the life-saving medication, a new study found.

🚨 The GOP just doubled down on their attacks on abortion access, but here are the facts:
- As of today mifepristone is legal and available in the US
- Mifepristone is used in more than 50% of all abortions in the US
- Mifepristone has a 23-year track record of safety
