President Trump nominated Paul Ingrassia to lead the Office of Special Counsel — an independent federal watchdog that fights corruption, protects whistleblowers from discrimination, and enforces the Hatch Act. The President must withdraw his nomination immediately.

Washington Republicans would have you believe that a temporary extension of Obamacare tax credits is just too expensive — but those same Republicans permanently extended enormous tax cuts for billionaires and giant corporations just three months ago.

Every additional day that Speaker Johnson refuses to swear in Congresswoman-elect Grijalva, he continues to deny the people of Arizona their voice in Congress. It's taxation without representation, plain and simple. It’s time to swear her in immediately!

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govOct 20(source)

Congressional Republicans spent the summer stripping away Americans' health care to give permanent tax cuts to billionaires and corporations. They've spent the fall hiding the Epstein Files, shutting the government, and spiking health care costs. Promises made, promises broken.

Thank you to the University of Minnesota’s Raptor Center for helping over 1,000 ailing birds of prey affected by bird flu and complications of climate change. www.startribune.com/university-o...

The House of Representatives has not voted in a month. It’s time for Congressional Republicans to come back to Washington, get to work, reopen the government, swear in Congresswoman-elect Grijalva, and most importantly: End the healthcare crisis they created.

It's a beautiful day to fight for our democracy, exercise our freedoms, and demand that our nation's leaders honor their oath to support and defend the Constitution. No Kings!

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govOct 18(source)

As a former social studies teacher, it brings me great pride to join my fellow Minnesotans in exercising our constitutional right — and our civic duty — to fight back against the Trump Administration. No Kings.

Today is National Mammography Day, a reminder that annual mammograms are important for women age 40 and older and save lives. Most insurance covers mammograms. The MN Sage Program offers free cancer screenings for those without insurance: www.health.state.mn.us/diseases/can....

There is no justification for the executions of Palestinian civilians by Hamas. I condemn these actions in the strongest terms. All parties must commit to maintaining the ceasefire, protecting civilian life, and surging humanitarian assistance into Gaza so that we can work towards long-term peace.

After Israeli Withdrawal, Hamas Launches Violent Crackdown on Rivals in Gaza

Firefights and public executions have spread fear and raised concerns about a spiral of internecine violence. “I could hear gunfire all around.”

I met with MNsure CEO Libby Caulum and Minnesota Department of Commerce Deputy Commissioner Julia Dreier today to discuss how the loss of ACA credits will impact Minnesota families. Because of the Republicans' inaction, prices are going up – way up. Find your plan options at mnsure.org.

Speaker Johnson continues to deny the people of Arizona their rightful representation in Congress. Why? To prevent a vote on releasing the Epstein Files. It's taxation without representation, and it needs to end. Speaker Johnson should swear in Congresswoman-elect Grijalva today.

I’m in Washington with my fellow Democrats working to re-open government and ensure Americans can afford their health care. Since Republicans shut down government 15 days ago, House GOP has been AWOL, refusing to negotiate with Democrats to prevent skyrocketing costs for millions.

When it comes to making your healthcare affordable with ACA tax credits, there’s not a penny to be found. But Trump had no problem giving permanent tax breaks to the ultra-wealthy and giant corporations, and now a $40 billion handout to his friend in Argentina. Doesn't sound like America First!

President Trump is using his shutdown as cover to implement Project 2025. Federal law requires support for students with disabilities, but Russ Vought just fired all the Department of Education staff overseeing those funds. Trump is determined to let waste, fraud, and abuse run rampant.
