George Floyd’s killer is paying the price for his crimes, and nothing Donald Trump can do will change that. The Minneapolis Police Department and my city will continue to make slow but meaningful steps toward reform and systemic change.

Tina Smith@smith.senate.govMay 25(source)

On this 5th anniversary of George Floyd’s murder, I’ve been remembering the anguish, trauma, and moral outrage of my Minnesota community. Since that terrible day there have been important victories and progress made, but also terrible losses and retreats.

In the Ojibwe language, the Menaandawiwe Wellness Campus means “a place where healing happens.” The clinic opens during a time when many in our Native communities are carrying grief. Today, we celebrate wellness, connection, and breaking ground here in Minneapolis.

If you have to Google what your job is, I think it’s safe to say you’re not good at it.

Billy Long is going to be the chief tax collector as head of the IRS, even though he received kickbacks for pushing bogus tax breaks that didn't exist. The blatant corruption of this Administration is never-ending.

They did it in the middle of the night because they knew they were up to no good.

This is horrifying. Archie and I are grieving for Yaron and Sarah, and our hearts go out to their loved ones and the Jewish community in pain right now. We must condemn this horrific act of antisemitic violence and hate.

BREAKING: Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s office said he is “shocked” by the “horrific, antisemitic” shooting of two staff members of the Israeli embassy in Washington. Netanyahu said he had instructed Israeli missions around the world to beef up security.

Retreating from the world stage just creates a leadership vacuum that China is more than willing to fill.

Beijing will replace the United States as the organization’s top state donor, expanding its influence as the U.S. retreats from international cooperation.

No spin. Just cold, hard facts. Under the Republican budget bill, the poor will get poorer and the rich will get richer.

Tina Smith@smith.senate.govMay 21(source)

Every Minnesotan deserves to be safe in their homes and neighborhoods, and that safety must include freedom from unconstitutional and discriminatory policing. This work isn’t finished yet, and we will keep holding ourselves accountable.

Tina Smith@smith.senate.govMay 21(source)

The Minneapolis Police Department has taken steps in the right direction and is committed to continuing that work even as the federal government walks away.

Tina Smith@smith.senate.govMay 21(source)

Thankfully, the City of Minneapolis and Minnesota state leaders continue to stand on the side of justice. The state-negotiated consent decree remains in place to continue working toward meaningful reform.

Tina Smith@smith.senate.govMay 21(source)

This decree was based on the DOJ's own investigation, which found a pattern of unconstitutional and discriminatory policing practices that have hurt our community, especially Black and Native American people and people will mental illness, for decades. Abandoning it is deeply disturbing.

Tina Smith@smith.senate.govMay 21(source)

It’s especially painful that this decision comes on the eve of the fifth anniversary of George Floyd’s murder — the very tragedy that sparked this investigation and the urgent push for reform. Walking away from this agreement, after confirming the need for it, is unconscionable.

Why do Republicans only talk about fiscal responsibility when it’s about paying for Medicaid and SNAP which helps regular Americans, but not when it’s about giving giant tax breaks to corporations? Seriously hypocritical.

Tina Smith@smith.senate.govMay 20(source)

Data doesn't lie. When they say they're giving out tax breaks, remember WHO they're skewing them towards (probably not you).

Tina Smith@smith.senate.govMay 20(source)

If you talk to a lot of rural hospitals they’ll tell you the same thing: They can’t afford to keep their doors open if that happens. Many of them will close, and that hurts everyone – not just the folks who rely on Medicaid.
