Mom of four boys, Mimi to three grandsons, wife to Cheryl & U.S. Representative for Minnesota’s 2nd District. Your voice matters and it’s an honor to serve you.
Yesterday I had the pleasure of chatting with FairVote CEO Meredith Sumpter about how we can utilize ranked choice voting to ensure free and fair elections. Thanks for stopping by Meredith!
Cheryl and I are saddened to hear of the passing of State Senator Bruce Anderson. Bruce was a dedicated public servant who was committed to our family farmers and veterans. We are keeping his family in our prayers today.
Burdensome red tape could kick 22.3 million families off their food assistance. And it couldn’t come at a worse time – last year, food shelf visits in MN hit an all-time high. I’m committed to partnering with federal, state and local officials to ensure every MN family can put…
Specialty crop farmers are an economic engine that powers our economy and feeds our families. I met with the Almond Alliance this week to discuss how we can work together to ensure specialty crop producers can access the tools they need to continue feeding our country.
Buying a home is a quintessential part of the American Dream – but the sky-high cost of housing has made it unattainable for too many hardworking Minnesotans. I’m proud to be introducing the First-Time Homebuyer Tax Credit Act to try and make home ownership a reality for more…
House Republicans are downplaying the trafficking of over 1,000 young women to protect …. who? This is the same old-boys-club BS that silences survivors and empowers the elites in this country to abuse their power with zero consequences. I’m over it. Release the files…no…
Emmer on Epstein: "This is totally an issue that is a non-issue."
I’m working to create good-paying jobs for Minnesotans and ensure every young person has a shot at success. I’m proud to be reintroducing my bipartisan bill to provide apprenticeship colleges with the support they need because when our workforce is strong, our state and our…
I’m so proud of my team for successfully returning $8 million from federal agencies to folks in MN-02! The folks in my district elected me to serve them – and that’s my top priority here in Congress. If you need help with a federal agency, contact my constituent services team at…
What is this Administration hiding? Release the Epstein files.
Trump’s cuts to the NIH will significantly decrease the number of new prescription drugs available to Minnesotans. These are innovative and life-saving medicines that folks desperately need. This is cruel, unprecedented and backward. startribune.com/health-cuts-wo…
This weekend, New Dems hosted our sixth On the Road stop—this time with @RepCarbajal & @RepAngieCraig in Santa Barbara, CA! Thankful to the local government officials, first responders, wildfire experts, & nonprofits who met with us to discuss wildfire prevention & preparedness.
The sale of illicit fentanyl on social media platforms puts our children’s lives at risk. I’m proud to be reintroducing legislation that holds Big Tech accountable for drug trafficking on their platforms and gives law enforcement the tools they need to keep our kids safe.
Last year, I made a friendly wager with a certain New York Congressman that the @minnesotalynx would win the WNBA finals. The consequence if we lost? A speech on the House floor congratulating the New York Liberty. @RepDanGoldman, today I gave you a floor speech, but not the one…
It was great to join @RepCarbajal this weekend to learn more about California's specialty crops in my capacity as the Ranking Member on the House Ag Committee. We discussed how we can continue to protect farm workers andensure that family farms and the ag economy as a whole is…
The fight for reproductive freedom is far from over. I’m working every day to protect a woman’s right to make her own health care decisions without interference from the government.
Today @RepCarbajal and @RepAngieCraig hosted the sixth stop of the New Dems on the Road in California to discuss wildfire preparedness. As we enter wildfire season, it's critical we work to enact prevention and forest management policies to protect our communities.…
When we invest in wildfire prevention programs – we save lives, property and our natural landscapes. I joined @NewDemCoalition and @RepCarbajal this morning to discuss how proactive measures like interagency coordination, community education and infrastructure resilience can…
As a former journalist, I'll never support cuts to public broadcasting – not now, not ever. This fight has only begun.
