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.
Happy 250th Anniversary @USPS! Minnesota, remember to thank your local postal workers and letter carriers today who work day in and day out to get you your mail. I’m still working to improve mail service in MN and make sure USPS employees have what they need to get the job done.
Today marks the 35th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act being signed into law. As we celebrate this landmark legislation, I am reaffirming my commitment to ensuring all Minnesotans have what they need to thrive in our communities.
It was great to meet with Josh Berg from Accessible Spaces this week! I’m working to make sure folks in my district living with disabilities have access to quality, affordable and accessible housing.
The humanitarian situation in Gaza is not acceptable. Children, families, innocent civilians, doctors and journalists are starving. Now, over 100 foreign aid groups have sounded the alarm, and the situation is only worsening. I’m calling on the Israeli government and the Trump…
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…
