Happy National Teacher Appreciation Day!
As a former social studies teacher, I have a deep appreciation for America's educators. All of us have a teacher who had an impact on our lives, and all of them deserve our gratitude.

Happy Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Heritage Month! Minnesotans celebrate our state's vibrant AANHPI communities, who make tremendous contributions to our culture, economy, and history, shaping our state for the better.
A surge of government imposter scams is underway. Scammers may contact you through email, mail, phone, social media, or text.
They'll try to impose a sense of urgency. Don't engage or provide info. To file a scam report and stay informed visit below.
Journalism is difficult work, and it's under threat both here in the United States and around the world.
On World Press Freedom Day, I join Americans in celebrating the importance of the "fourth estate" — a free and independent news media that holds power to account.
⛔️ REMINDER: Highway 280 is fully closed between I-94 & Hwy 36/I-35W through late August.

President Trump and Administrator Zeldin are overseeing the destruction of American scientific research at the EPA.
This evening, Republicans in Congress are setting the stage for a bill that will pour another $70 billion into ICE and Border Patrol. It's absurd that Republicans are trying to give ICE & CBP even more money on top of the $140 billion slush fund they already have. I will vote no.
The Supreme Court effectively gutted the Voting Rights Act today, allowing Republican legislatures to weaken the voting power of minorities across America. This decision is disastrous for our democracy. Congress must respond by passing the John Lewis Voting Rights Act.
$25,000,000,000. That's the cost of the Iran War. $25 billion.
Your taxes shouldn't pay for it — and you shouldn’t be paying for it at the pump with gas at $4.22 a gallon.
And yet, President Trump has no plan to re-open the Strait of Hormuz, end this conflict, and lower costs for Americans.
The Agriculture Appropriations bill is a bad deal for all Minnesotans. I’ll vote no on it if Republicans fail to restore food assistance and ensure support for Minnesota's farmers.
As Congress prepares for an address by King Charles III, we're reminded of the importance of the special relationship with our British allies.
Our alliance with the United Kingdom cannot become a one-way street. The United States must maintain our credibility and keep our word.
Americans support strong environmental protections: Clean air, safe drinking water, and communities that are resistant to the impacts of climate change. But President Trump and House Republicans aren't siding with us — they're backing serial polluters and climate-deniers.
The University of St. Thomas is hosting an exhibit featuring Holocaust survivors’ stories. Visitors can ask questions through an app to six survivors whose thousands of hours of testimony have been digitized.
I’m grateful for the swift law enforcement response to the shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. As we await further details, I’m glad to hear that there are no reported injuries.
