Very welcome news out of the Middle East today. Hopeful for a ceasefire, the return of hostages, humanitarian aid to civilians in Gaza and safety and security in Israel.
We just secured funding for ReConnect Rondo, a community-driven organization working to revitalize the Rondo neighborhood, to take the next steps needed to get the project ready for construction.
Here in Washington, one hour out and ready for the game — experiencing that mixture of anticipation and dread so familiar to all Vikings fans.

Every time I visit Rondo, I’m reminded of the strength, vision, and community spirit that define this neighborhood. Their commitment to restoring what was lost is what makes this project so meaningful. I’m honored to support them on this journey.
The Rondo neighborhood is the center of St. Paul's Black community and lost more than 1,000 homes + businesses when I-94 was built. A land bridge over the interstate could address the historical harm caused by its construction. And we’re one step closer to making that happen.

It's Postmaster General DeJoy's responsibility to provide reliable service in Minnesota. He has a lot of work to do to fix these issues, and I won't stop pressing him until it's done.
When I asked postal leadership about this, they told me it was the first they heard of it. These are the same people who repeatedly tell me everything is fine with service in Minnesota, and that their data would say if there were big disruptions. This is beyond unacceptable.
Parts of Cook County, MN have gone without mail delivery since 2024. People have been waiting for essential needs like prescriptions, Social Security checks, and more — and they were turned away when they tried to pick up their mail from the post office.
Wanted to share a video (w/ permission) of a mother and her two sons who were split up during the Afghanistan withdrawal who we were able to reunite in Minnesota.   Masouma and her sons have been separated for 3+ years. Seeing them together again warms my heart and brings tears to my eyes.
I called for DOJ to investigate RealPage + other companies engaged in this practice in March 2023 with @warren.senate.gov, @markey.senate.gov and @sanders.senate.gov. Glad to see more action taking on corporate landlords who illegally coordinate to reduce competition + inflate the cost of rent.
Artificially inflating rent is just wrong. When corporate landlords collude with each other and use algorithms to keep units empty and prices high, renters get stuck in a doom spiral of unaffordability. But that’s exactly what these landlords do.
BREAKING: The Justice Department of suing six of the nation’s largest landlords for illegally raising rents on over one million people using algorithmic pricing. The DOJ and multiple states added these landlords to their suit against RealPage, the rental software company.
Upgrades will include making structural steel repairs and replacing deteriorated sections – and replacing sidewalks so we can all keep enjoying Park Point. Between this and the complete replacement of the Blatnik Bridge, the future of Duluth’s infrastructure is bright.
Seeing ships from around the world traverse under the Aerial Lift Bridge and dock in Duluth never gets old. It's a staple of the Northland. And we have some good news. Senator Klobuchar and I secured funding to make repairs to keep the bridge operational for years to come.
