Happy #NationalParkWeek! My district includes the beautiful Pipestone National Monument—home to dozens of pipestone quarries still in use by American Indians today and surrounded by 301 acres of tallgrass prairie and a stunning waterfall. It's worth a visit! #FindYourPark

We'd like to see waste water projects and funding for the PFA (Public Facilities Authority) is important. -@SenatorWeber #YourLegislators #MNLeg

We need to make sure a bonding bill meets the basic needs of MN and doesn't engager our credit rating. -@SenatorWeber #YourLegislators #MNLeg

The Senate won't support a $3 bonding bill. We're looking at a projected deficit of $2.5 billion. The longer businesses stay closed, the worse it's going to be. We have to look at our integrity as a state. -@SenatorWeber #YourLegislators #MNLeg

So the Air Force Academy can graduate 1000 cadets in an outdoor ceremony but Pipestone High School can’t socially distance their 60 graduating seniors on the football field for their ceremony? Right now I see more than 60 people INSIDE Costco. Where is the common sense?

Congrats @ThommyPetersen on being confirmed as Commissioner of @MNagriculture. He is a truly bipartisan champion for Minnesota farmers & ag producers. Grateful for his leadership & our partnership.

Lakefield considers opposing executive order

There were 16 new confirmed cases of COVID-19 reported in Nobles Co. today. I have been assured there are adequate supplies of testing materials and PPE. Drive thru testing is available at Sanford Worthington Clinic w/ a physician’s referral. More: https://t.co/OSNDRUCrkb

I held a Zoom call w @RHamilton542, @joeschomacker & media from across District 22 on Thursday. We shared Capitol updates, what we’re hearing from constituents, & took Q’s. So important to keep everyone updated. Thanks @lwardglobe for covering it.

Just wrapped up a virtual meeting with the administrators from most of the nine counties in the district (Cottonwood, Jackson, Lincoln, Lyon, Murray, Nobles, Pipestone, Redwood & Rock). I appreciate the work they’re doing during these challenging times.

Looks like Majority Leader @_RyanWinkler didn’t like our message today on Insulin. “Character is what you do (when you think) no one is watching." #mnleg #Insulin4All

Just wrapped up a Zoom meeting with superintendents of the 28 schools in my Senate district. Thankful for the work they’re doing under very challenging circumstances.

Yesterday, we passed an emergency insulin program/assistance program & $50 million in bonding for the Rural Finance Authority. Both bills passed unanimously! Read more:

“(Section 179 conformity) is our tax priority for the year,” says @SenatorWeber. #MSGAHill20

BEWARE: The MPCA is currently writing the rules for Gov Walz's vehicle emission control program (which is the California emission control program). This hurts us in rural Minnesota. We aren't California and we don't want to be!

The session starts on Monday for Minnesota lawmakers. Here's what's on the minds/agendas for Pipestone County's legislators.

Michelle is a friend of ag and a friend of southwestern Minnesota. She will be an excellent congresswoman #MN07

In small towns like Luverne, we rally together. I was proud to join the 150+ who came out to support Mike & Cheryl. Their son had his infant daughter taken after an unbelievable situation. Please read the story and pass it on. #BringHerHome

My prayers remain with the family of Dr. John Cox, a Luverne native and son of Mike & Cheryl. A series of missteps by WI authorities and hospital staff led to an unimaginable outcome. Please join me in calling for the wrongs to be corrected! #BringHerHome

Glad to join the Worthington Area Chamber of Commerce on Saturday for a legislative update! Thanks to all those who showed up for a great discussion.
