Yesterday, Tribal Nations in Minnesota and the Mille Lacs Singers honored me by participating in a Flag Ceremony. I will proudly display all 11 Tribal flags in my offices.

Maybe Trump should worry less about how he looks in literally one portrait in Colorado and more about his Cabinet members texting classified war plans in Signal group chats… THAT is what's not a good look here.
The sustained effort by DeJoy, Musk and Trump to dismantle the post office is an attempt to cut off a lifeline to people across Minnesota and America.   I’m on the side of the postal workers.

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.

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.
MPR News headline: From bridges to water pipes, federal funding bill cuts hundreds of millions for projects across Minnesota
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.
Fox News page with text from a story that says: Despite Trump's order, the president needs Congress to sign off on eradicating the agency, under Article Il of the U.S. Constitution. Such a measure would require 60 votes to pass in the Senate, and there are only 53
Republicans currently.
