I have some great bipartisan housing bills, especially around rural #housing, and I’ll be thinking about what we can get done to address the full housing continuum. In the meantime, where is HousingSky? Hello! Tell me what you’re working on.
Lots of questions swirling in my head now that we’re back in DC, and a big one is what’s #housing policy going to look like? If we’re really going to make life cheaper for Americans, it has to start with housing. It’s the biggest single chunk of most families’ budgets.
Congratulations to St. Cloud Superintendent Laurie Putnam on being named the 2025 Minnesota Superintendent of the Year! Thank you for your leadership and continued dedication to our students.
First day back.    We all deal with stress in different ways.  I watched the entire Lord of the Rings Trilogy. Extended edition. With Moose the dog. And now, I’m ready to get back to work.
On Veterans Day, we honor the courageous men and women who served our country for their patriotism and dedication to protecting our freedoms. America thanks you for your service.
On the first day of American Indian Heritage Month, we honor the profound traditions and cultures of the Native Nations across Minnesota and our country.  
It’s never been lost upon me how lucky I am to represent a state with such rich Ojibwe and Dakota cultures and traditions.
Happy Halloween to everyone in Minnesota, but especially these witches who paddled Lake Harriet this past weekend 🧙‍♀️👻

Abortion bans kill women. Josseli should be alive. Doctors shouldn't fear being prosecuted just for trying to save their patients’ lives - which, yes, includes providing miscarriage care. This is the direct result of Trump abortion bans.
A Texas Woman Died After the Hospital Said It Would be a “Crime” to Intervene in Her Miscarriage Josseli is one of at least two pregnant Texas women who died after doctors delayed emergency care. She’d told her husband that the medical team said it couldn’t act until the fetal heartbeat stopped.
So I hope you’ll follow so we can continue the conversation on reproductive freedom, housing, climate, corporate greed and Minnesota (with the occasional donut post sprinkled in).
Hello (again) Bluesky! I’m going to start posting here again, because that other app has become a disaster. But first, I want to introduce myself. My name is Tina Smith, and I’m a proud United States Senator for Minnesota… ⬇️
-- A clean energy economy that includes rural America -- Health care as a human right -- Universal childcare -- Workers rights and economic justice
I served as Minnesota’s Lt. Governor before coming to the Senate in 2018, where I champion progressive causes like: -- Expanding the Supreme Court -- Abortion rights -- Housing as a human right -- Fighting corporate greed
Later, I was VP of Planned Parenthood – North Central States, where every day I saw people walk through the doors of our clinic fully capable of making their own decisions about abortion, their bodies and their lives without some politician interfering.

Cancelled/delayed flights are costly and stressful, especially when traveling to visit loved ones. Excellent news from the Biden-Harris Administration as we enter the holiday season.
Airlines in the United States are now required to give passengers cash refunds if their flight is significantly delayed or canceled, even if that person does not explicitly ask for a refund. cnn.it/3NGS0lE
Our housing crisis can't be solved by just one level of government. It's going to take all of us. We need to come together at every level - from local governments all the way up to the United States Senate - to ensure everyone has a quality, affordable place to call home.
I’ve long advocated for more support for beginning and emerging farmers. I chaired a hearing on it. I sponsor legislation to reauthorize this grant program. I have legislation to increase land access, capital access, and market access for underserved farmers.
This is a matter of national security, food security, and the strength and vitality of rural America. Agriculture is a driving force in America’s economy, and this grant will make sure our Ag economy is strong as the next generation of farmers takes over.
