I served with @Tim_Walz and he was absolutely the go-to guy on veterans issues. Countless times, I went to him for guidance on legislation to try to get stuff done for those who served. He was - and is - just a stand up guy who likes to get things done. Great pick! #HarrisWalz.

The stakes of this election could not be higher. I believe VP @KamalaHarris can – and must – win at the ballot box in November. I support her, and I will do everything I can to help elect her so we can unite our country and build a better future for all Americans #LetsWinThis

My deepest sympathies to Sherry Appleton's friends and loved ones. We joined the State House at the same time in 2004. She was a champion for our environment, our kids' futures, and our seniors. Sherry had a passion for making a difference, and I'm thankful to have known her.

I firmly believe that our democracy flourishes when we prioritize the interests of the American people above all else. The American people deserve a Congress that works FOR them, void of partisan political games.

First, we faced a debt ceiling crisis. Then, the threat of a government shutdown. Now, Speaker McCarthy's gone, leaving Congress in a gridlock. It's time to get our nation back on track by rejecting extremism and finding common ground to move forward.
