Musk and Trump need to stay the hell away from USPS.
Postal workers provide an essential constitutional service, ensuring that folks have their medicine, bills and paychecks on time.

Honored to help kick off an exciting day at the Armed Forces Hockey Tournament in the State of Hockey!
Public transit is about connecting people to their work, school, health care and more – it’s about economic opportunity.
I was so excited to celebrate the Gold Line’s first day of service, thanks to the partnership of local, state and federal officials.
Filled with gratitude after St. Louis Park’s first annual Iftar. Sending all who celebrate my good wishes and prayers for a blessed iftar with your loved ones!
The rights these protesters fought for 60 years ago are still under threat today.
We can’t forget. We can never be afraid of getting in good trouble.
Trump and Republicans are making your life more expensive. I voted against his funding bill because it doesn’t come close to meeting the needs of Minnesotans. Many of the projects it cut have to happen regardless, and without federal support, you’ll be the one paying for it.
Hands off our health care.
Needs 60 Senate votes to completely dismantle it and you can count me as a hell no.
See you in court.
Last week, Republicans stopped projects like this from going forward. They want tax cuts for billionaires instead of childcare for working families.
Access to childcare has always been one of my priorities in the Senate. It’s a kitchen table issue that lets parents go to work. The Brainerd Family YMCA provides high-quality childcare for the community, and thanks to federal dollars, they built a new center.
Musk has never had to rely on a food shelf in his life – and Trump hasn’t either. Yet they think it’s fine to cut the funding that helps these pantries make ends meet– pantries like the Lakes Area Food Shelf in Pequot Lakes, Minnesota.
Minnesotans who rely on food shelves is at a record high – it’s a godsend for families who just need a little extra help feeding themselves and their kids.
And I’m pretty sure the hundreds of thousands of people who’ve contacted my office since you started this nonsense are on the same page.
More bullshit.
Donald Trump, you can’t shut down the Dept. of Education — and you know it. Fox News even knows it. So stop it.
We know you’re just trying to wear us out. But for the record, I am not overwhelmed. My zone isn’t flooded.
I will fight your illegal behavior until the cows come home.
Different states use different names, but the pain will be felt everywhere, regardless of what you call it.
One thing that I think gets lost in all of this talk about Medicaid cuts: Medicaid goes by different names in different states.
Minnesota calls it Medical Assistance/MinnesotaCare.
Wisconsin calls it BadgerCare.
Alaska calls it DenaliCare.
California calls it Medi-Cal.
We can’t stand aside while Musk and his cronies gut medical research — including research into mental health.
@kellymorrisonmn.bsky.social, @repangiecraig.bsky.social and I teamed up with NAMI to make sure Minnesotans know to speak up — we should be moving forward in this fight, not backwards.
Grocery prices are still too high, and Minnesota farmers are struggling as the bird flu devastates their flocks.
The Trump administration’s response has left too many questions unanswered. Farmers need help now and working families need to see prices come down.
Trump, Musk and Republicans are gutting the VA — firing thousands, many of them veterans — to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.
Fewer doctors, longer wait times, and worse care.
This is reckless and a betrayal of the veterans who served our country. They deserve better.
