This is not who we are as Minnesotans. We must stand with our Jewish neighbors in the face of this blatant antisemitism and reject all hatred in our communities.

The vandalism at Temple Israel today in Minneapolis is alarming and unacceptable. And it’s a sobering reminder that antisemitism is on the rise.

Speaker Johnson is refusing to swear in Rep-elect Grijalva during a pro forma session – but he swore in two Republican members in April using that exact procedure.

Conveniently, she is the last signature needed to release the Epstein files...

This isn'tt normal. What do they have to hide?

The lie: Mike Johnson says Republicans are “working around the clock” to end the shutdown.

The truth: Republicans have only worked 14 days since July and are using this shutdown as vacation.

When will the GOP cut the lies and get back to Washington to do the people’s business?

The Trump Admin has repeatedly violated due process, detained and deported legal immigrants and obstructed Congressional oversight of their facilities.

I am deeply concerned with a proposal to open an ICE detention center in Appleton, and demand Secretary Noem provide Minnesotans with answers.

It’s been a week since Republicans shut down the government, and they’re nowhere to be found.

It’s time they return to DC to work with us to fix the health care crisis they created.

We must continue working toward returning the hostages and ensuring these horrors are never repeated.

We must finalize a lasting ceasefire that establishes peace, security and self-determination for all in the region.

While your health insurance premiums are skyrocketing – my Republican colleagues are on vacation.

It’s time they get serious, address the health care crisis they’ve created and fund the government.

It’s been 6 days since Republicans shut down the government.

In that time: health insurance premiums have skyrocketed, federal workers are hurting and Republicans have done nothing to end the health care crisis they created.

It’s time for them to come to the table and end this chaos.

If Republicans want to keep the government shut down so they can avoid addressing the urgent health care crisis — they shouldn’t get paid for it with your tax dollars.

My No Pay for Disarray Act would suspend all pay for Members of Congress during the shutdown.

America’s veterans received this blatantly political and misleading email from the VA.

It failed to mention that Republicans have cut millions of dollars this year in food assistance and health care for those who served.

Minnesotans’ health insurance premiums will rise upwards of 20% next year thanks to the Republican-made health care crisis.

This is the most significant rise in premiums since the last Trump Administration (not a coincidence).

That’s why I’m holding the line until Republicans address the mess they’ve created.

The 2026 MNSure premiums were just released, and they’re even worse than anticipated.

Republicans shut down the government because they don’t think addressing this health care crisis is urgent – but Minnesotans are seeing higher costs right now.

If Republicans are serious about supporting our troops during a shutdown, they’ll put this bill to a vote.

American troops shouldn’t have to go without pay because Republicans couldn’t do their job and fund the government.

I introduced the Pay Our Military Bill with @repemiliasykes.bsky.social to ensure our troops get the pay they deserve for their critical work.

If Republicans don’t work with Democrats to extend ACA premium tax credits – Americans’ insurance premiums will rise by 114%.

Republicans would rather shut down the government than work with us to lower your health care costs.
