This. Is. Terrifying. From a WCCO interview today, this is Scott Jensen's view on banning abortion access for women who are VICTIMS of rape or incest: @ChadHartmanShow : "No exceptions for rape or incest?" @drscottjensen : "Not unless a mother's life is in danger."

@neeratanden is more than qualified to lead the OMB, and if confirmed, she'd be the FIRST #AAPI to hold that office. We urge @Sen_JoeManchin @lisamurkowski @ChuckGrassley @SenSasse @tedcruz to vote #YESNeera . YES to progress. YES to women. YES to AAPIs.

As Minnesotans plan for back to school, we know that the excitement families are feeling is mixed with the stress of buying books, backpacks, and clothes.   We’re going to help with that – both with checks of up to $1,300 per family and universal free breakfast and lunch.

Today’s census news is a testament to Minnesota's incredible commitment to civic engagement and democracy. As the state with both the highest census response rate in the nation at 75.1% and the highest voter turnout in the nation, Minnesotans should be proud of these results.
