I’ve spent my years in the Senate working with anyone who wants to work with me to find ways to address the housing crisis. That won’t change.
I’ve written bills to end veterans’ homelessness. I’ve pushed to get more federal support for cities looking to cut red tape that hinders construction of more housing. I have bipartisan legislation to preserve affordable rural housing in small towns and Tribal communities.
50%+ of America’s renters are spending more than 30% of their income on rent. Every county in Minnesota has a shortage of affordable + available rental homes for extremely low-income households. The rate of homeowners spending 30%+ of their income on housing keeps going up.
I was just named top Democrat on the Housing Subcommittee in the Senate. Our country is facing a housing crisis, with supply falling dramatically behind demand. I’m determined to address it.
It seems that thanks to public pressure, the Trump Admin just backpedaled.   This was a mess that shouldn't have happened in the first place. I’m still hearing how hard this has been on Minnesota vets and their families. And a lot is still unclear.   This chaos was totally avoidable.
I just got a report that the Minneapolis VA has stopped hiring workers thanks to a hasty Trump Executive Order. They’ve rescinded offers to dozens of people who were going to fill critical roles to care for vets.
I’m still thinking about the blanket pardons that Trump gave to the January 6th rioters — even the ones who beat and assaulted police. On day one of his administration.

Trump is deep in the pocket of Big Pharma. He doesn't care whether Americans can afford their meds, only that Big Pharma continues to make massive profit. This won’t help you. It won’t help your family. He did this because it helps Pharma CEOs.
Donald Trump rescinded Biden's action to lower prescription drug costs for Americans on Medicare and Medicaid. There's no other way to spin it. That means more money out-of-pocket for seniors and families. Big Pharma first. Ordinary people last.
Americans send us to Washington to make their lives better, and this law did that. Trump doesn’t care that your neighborhood bridge is back to structurally sound, that the lead pipes in your kids’ school were removed, or that you have a new transit line that takes you to work.
The law replacing Duluth’s Blatnik Bridge. The law fixing overpasses across I-90 in Southern MN. The law that’s invested in airports across Minnesota.
Buried in the flurry of Executive Orders last night is one that halts all funding from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. Yes, the law that Republicans and Democrats came together to pass that fixes our roads, modernizes old bridges and makes drinking water safer.
J6ers pardoned yesterday included those who assaulted officers with metal batons, fire extinguishers, wooden planks and poles. They even admitted to it and pled guilty in court. They should be in prison. The only reason they aren’t is because they did it in Trump’s name.
I am moved and grateful that President Biden commuted the sentence of Leonard Peltier. This is a measure of justice and mercy for an old man.
