Pope Francis will be remembered for leading by example. By showing compassion for all of God’s children, he challenged the entire world — and its leaders in particular — to be compassionate toward others.

Wishing a joyous and peaceful evening to our Jewish neighbors celebrating Passover tonight. Chag Sameach!
Wishing a happy Easter to all those who celebrate! May your day be filled with peace, love, and time together with family and friends. 🐣🌷🐇
Listening to you is my most important job.
I visited Carondelet Village for another town hall yesterday, where residents told me they're worried about President Trump's attacks against Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security. I’ll always vote to protect Minnesotans who rely on these services.
We live in an extraordinary time as people are being denied due process and threatened with displacement and deportation. I will continue to fight to protect and defend our democracy and our Constitution and support the rights of all people.
Today we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the resettlement of our Hmong and Southeast Asian allies. For 50 years, since the end of Vietnam War, Hmong Americans have been calling Minnesota home and making tremendous contributions to our culture and economy.
It’s heartbreaking to learn of a school shooting at Florida State University in Tallahassee, Florida. There have already been 98 mass shootings just four months into 2025. These are preventable acts of senseless brutality. We must take action to end gun violence.
Medicaid keeps Minnesota's families safe, healthy, and financially secure — but Republicans are trying to make the largest cut to Medicaid in American history to pass massive tax cuts for billionaires. I'll always fight against Republican efforts to take away Minnesotans' healthcare.
In Minnesota, one out of three newborns and their mothers depend on Medicaid for healthy birth care. We must work together to protect Minnesotans’ access to these services that are keeping our families and communities healthy, safe, and economically stable.
One in four Minnesotans rely on Medicaid for their health care. Today I joined families and volunteers with Protect Our Care Minnesota to speak out against Republican plans in Washington to cut vital services like Medicaid to give away massive tax breaks for billionaires.
Thanks to the legislators who invited me and constituents who joined us in Saint Paul this weekend for a town hall on the impact of the Trump Administration's cuts to the services that Minnesotans rely on. I'm empowered to fight back through your actions — Together, we're making a difference.
I am grateful that Governor Josh Shapiro and his family are ok following the arson attack on their residence. Thanks to the swift actions of first responders who ensured that no one was injured and quickly apprehended a suspect. Political violence has no place in our country.
Minnesotans are not powerless to hold the Trump administration accountable. We are stronger together.
Thank you to the hundreds that attended the town hall today. You are the reason I have the power to push back. I’m empowered to fight back through your action. Together, we are making a difference through victories in the court. You are making a difference!
I’ll continue to resist Republican efforts to take away food, healthcare, and government services that Minnesotans rely on.
Republicans are making the largest cuts to Medicaid in American history and cuts to food assistance. Why? To pass massive tax cuts for billionaires like Elon Musk.
Elon Musk and President Trump are illegally and unconstitutionally cutting services that Americans rely on. While Republicans are cheering them on, my fellow Democrats and I are fighting back.
I’m looking forward to joining Senate Majority Leader Erin Murphy and State Representatives Kaohly Her, Samakab Hussein, Liz Lee, Maria Isa Pérez-Vega, Dave Pinto, Jay Xiong, and Leigh Finke for a town hall tomorrow at 1pm. I hope to see you there! Register here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...
The House Republican budget adds $14 TRILLION in new debt over the decade. To put that in context: That’s more than DOUBLE the amount that the entire federal government spends annually! I voted NO.
The Republicans' fiscally irresponsible budget includes:
📉 $7 trillion in tax cuts for the rich, paid for with debt
🚫 Up to $880 billion in Medicaid cuts
🚱 Up to $230 billion in cuts to food assistance
💸 $14 trillion in new debt over the decade
