The leading cause of death for kids is guns. Assault rifles are responsible for 85% of mass shooting deaths. Today I joined community leaders to call for bans on assault weapons and high capacity magazines. Kids lives come first.

New Trump Tariffs = higher costs for Minnesotans $2,400 more for a family each year Minnesotans need help to bring down costs, not pointless trade wars

Trump told Texas he needs five more seats. He's trying to cheat because he knows voters are ready to defeat his party at the polls in 2026. Texas legislators are holding the line for all of us. Help them out here:

The Trump/GOP Medicaid cuts will kick 140,000 Minnesotans off health care. MN GOP says this is about eligibility. Wrong. The whole point is to drown eligible Minnesotans in paperwork so they fall through the cracks and lose care. Why? To pay for tax cuts for the rich.

The science has been clear for decades: climate change is real, manmade, and hurts human health. Yet Trump's EPA is attacking science and making the climate threat worse. This will mean more Minnesotans at risk of harm from pollution, storms, and disease.

Minnesotans just buried our friends after a vile act of violent political extremism. Senator Hoffman just got out of the ICU. Yet you still think it’s cool to spew hateful lies targeting @Ilhan? It’s shameful. And it’s dangerous.
I'm sure it is difficult to see us welcome the killer of so many of your fellow Muslim terrorists. The only shame is that you serve in Congress.

250,000 Minnesotans kicked off health care 28% higher energy bills More hungry kids All for billionaire tax breaks This ugly bill is devastating to Minnesotans just trying to get by, and a huge handout to the richest among us.

Today the WI Supreme Court ruled in favor of our freedom to make our own decisions about our bodies. Thank you to everyone who kept up the fight for reproductive rights in the darkest days. This win is yours.

Tl;dr: 250,000 more Minnesotans at risk of devastating medical bills, higher energy prices, rural hospital closures, and longer ambulance wait times. None of this is worth a tax cut for billionaires. Congress needs to reject this bill.

The GOP is set to pass the largest upward wealth transfer in US history. To funnel tax cuts to billionaires, they: - kick 14 million off health insurance - deny food assistance to millions - gut clean energy investments It's the most unethical budget I've ever seen.

With a 67-67 tied House, Minnesotans got to see two competing visions for who lawmakers are fighting for. Republicans chose billionaires. We chose you.

The MN House stands adjourned! We balanced the budget and blocked the GOP from rolling back laws that help make Minnesota a great place to live, work, and raise a family. We'll keep fighting for hardworking Minnesotans – because you deserve a fair shot to build a better life.
