Today, I will vote YES on a resolution to limit President Trump from continuing military strikes in Iran without Congressional approval.
Congress should be addressing the health care and affordability crises created by Trump and Republicans, not going to war.

Rather than fixing the health care and affordability crises they created for the American people, President Trump and Congressional Republicans continue to target Minnesota in an unprecedented campaign of retribution and incompetence aimed at attacking our way of life and dividing our neighbors.
We pray for their families, for the safety of all our men and women in uniform serving overseas, and for those in the region who now find themselves in danger because of President Trump’s reckless, unlawful, and unnecessary decision to go to war.
Already, the lives of six American service members have been lost, including a fellow Minnesotan, Sergeant First Class Nicole M. Amor of White Bear Lake. Their service to our nation will never be forgotten.
Passing this War Powers resolution is essential to reining in the unlawful actions of this president. Every Member of Congress must state on the record whether they support the president’s actions.
President Trump has taken our nation to war in violation of the War Powers Act and the Constitution. He knows his actions are unconstitutional, because his administration’s justification for this unlawful war shifts by the hour.
I will vote YES on a War Powers Resolution this week that would rein in President Trump's actions in the Middle East.
I am heartbroken by the loss of six American service members in the Middle East. The Army has released the names of four of those we lost, including Sgt. First Class Nicole M. Amor of White Bear Lake. My thoughts are with her family, friends, and fellow Soldiers as they grieve this tremendous loss.
To the millions who celebrate the Festival of Colors in Minnesota and around the world, I want to wish you a Happy Holi! Today we celebrate the arrival of spring and a reminder to always see the light, even in the face of darkness.
Trump in 2011: "Our President will start a war with Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate."
President Trump in 2018: Tears up agreement limiting Iran’s nuclear program (JCPOA)
President Trump in 2026: Unilaterally takes our nation to war with Iran
More than 1 million U.S. citizens in 14 countries in the Middle East have been ordered to evacuate, but the Trump administration has no plan to assist them. Since Saturday, more than 10,000 commercial flights have been canceled because airspace is closed.
Honored to attend the Annual Iftar Dinner at the Minnesota National Guard Armory as our Muslim community broke their fast with policymakers, members of our multi-faith community, and military. We broke bread in celebration as a community, deepening our bonds and understanding.

Ranking Members @meeks.house.gov, @adamsmith.house.gov, @jahimes.bsky.social, @delauro.house.gov and @mccollum.house.gov sent a letter to top Trump administration officials set to brief Congress today, demanding they answer critical questions concerning ongoing U.S. military operations against Iran.
Six American service members have now lost their lives in this war – the Trump administration owes Congress and the American people a straight explanation.
And if Secretary Rubio is right, why is the Trump administration letting another country dictate decisions for the United States on our national security?
This morning, Secretary Hegseth said that we are at war because of Iran’s long-term ballistic missile and nuclear weapons development programs. But this afternoon, Secretary Rubio said that the reason was actually because Israel was planning to attack Iran. Which is it?
The Trump administration’s rationale for their unlawful war in the Middle East is changing by the hour. 🧵
Minnesotans will get the chance to view a total lunar eclipse tomorrow morning — our last chance until 2028. The best chance to see the “Blood Moon” is between 5 AM and 6 AM.
Our children deserve to be safe at school, at home, and in our communities. This morning, I visited Justice Alan Page Elementary School in Maplewood to thank the dedicated faculty who've been volunteering in shifts to monitor daily drop-off & pick-up during Operation Metro Surge.
My thoughts are with our service members in the region as U.S. casualties are announced and my heart goes out to the families of those lost. We want all our personnel serving in the region to come home to their families safely and as soon as possible. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/01/w...
