Zitkála-Šá, Yankton Dakota Sioux, was a composer, educator and activist who helped Native Americans get the right to vote.
She fought to give Indigenous people a say.
I’m grateful to see the U.S. Mint is commemorating Indigenous voices like hers.

This is wrong - nobody should be punished for being themselves. I introduced the Name Accuracy in Credit Reporting Act with Senator Fetterman to make sure this doesn't happen again.
Trans people deserve better 🏳️⚧️
A Minnesota trans woman contacted me after her name change caused her credit report to be deleted. Without her credit report, she'd pay higher rates on loans and refinancing her home.
She'd be penalized for being trans and living as her authentic self.
The Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Duluth just installed solar panels that will generate 40% of their energy.
It's the kind of project the Inflation Reduction Act aimed for: cheaper, accessible clean energy for everyone.
Black Women’s Equal Pay Day is a stark reminder about how our economy continues to fail Black women.
The average Black woman works over 19 months to make what the average white, non-Hispanic man makes in just 12.
Fixing this is part of building an inclusive economy.
The Inflation Reduction Act is unleashing American energy and lowering carbon emissions.
America’s manufacturing boom since it was signed into law is no coincidence.
It’s Bidenomics in action.
This rule brings us one step closer to mental health parity, meaning we cover mental health care at the same level as physical health care.
This isn’t controversial – tackling America's mental health crisis means passing my legislation with @RonWyden banning ghost networks.
‘Ghost networks’ are a deceptive tactic insurers use to make mental health care more difficult to access, sometimes by listing phony contact information for providers like therapists or psychologists.
Patients struggling with their mental health shouldn't play these games.
NEW: The Department of Labor just announced a rule cracking down on insurance companies that avoid covering mental health at the same level as physical health.
Let's talk about part of the new rule that I've been working to pass legislation on: ghost networks.
I appreciate Vice President Harris uplifting Native voices – Indigenous perspectives have been left out of these conversations for far too long.
Tribal leaders spoke, and we listened.
The Senate unanimously passed the Tribal Trust Land Homeownership Act, making it easier to buy a home on Tribal lands. Lack of housing is one of the most pressing issues in Indian Country, and this legislation is one step towards addressing it.
Congrats to all the Minnesota breweries that competed at the U.S. Beer Open Championships. The drama in Washington is only bearable knowing I have some great Minnesota beers waiting for me when I get home!
The Supreme Court faces a legitimacy crisis of their own creation – and because of their corruption. Congress needs to act.
Americans feel lonelier and more isolated than ever before. We have a plan to tackle that.
Glad to join you in this fight, Senator Murphy.
Nobody makes players better than the State of Hockey.
The answer to this crisis starts with a clean energy transition — always has, always will.
The Twin Cities has among the lowest inflation of any major city in the country *and* we just cracked the Top 5 for America’s Top States for Business.
Wall Street, Big Oil and Big Pharma have gotten enough of the government’s money – time to invest it in American families.
It works.
Our job is to protect families from bad actors, and that’s what I plan to do.

The desire to own a home and build wealth is so powerful for so many familiesthat these lenders knowingly mislead consumers and get them to sign one of these contracts.
Lenders target immigrant communities where families face barriers to getting a traditional mortgage.
Financial literacy, language and cultural barriers make families susceptible to signing these contracts assuming they’re protected.
Communities like Saint Cloud in my home state.
