Proud to represent Minnesota's 8th Congressional District.
Thinking of Senator Smith during her hospitalization. Wishing her a speedy recovery!
A Note from Senator Smith's Staff: -- While at work at the Capitol today, Sen. Smith started to not feel well. She went to the Capitol physician who recommended she undergo more thorough examination at GW hospital. Out of an abundance of caution, they are keeping her overnight…
Ireland is making a serious mistake. Banning the import of goods from Israeli businesses operating in the West Bank and East Jerusalem is not only antisemitic, but it also has serious ramifications for American businesses. Ireland must reconsider. thehill.com/opinion/financ…
I was proud to help welcome William Marshall, the new Director of the Federal Bureau of Prisons, to the Federal Prison Camp in Duluth. This visit was a key opportunity to show why Biden’s decision to close the facility is misguided—and to make the case for keeping it open. I’ll…
Work requirements for welfare aren’t new—they’re common sense. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act strengthens Medicaid and SNAP by promoting self-reliance, a principle even Democrats like Clinton, Gore, and Biden once championed.
Minnesota thanks you, @FBIDirectorKash!
Stealing $250M from hungry kids to buy mansions and luxury cars is as shameless as it gets. Proud of our @FBI and @FBIMinneapolis for exposing one of the worst frauds in Minnesota history — and holding dozens accountable. Exploit the vulnerable, and we will bring you to…
ICYMI: With my support, the House sent the Rescissions Package to the President’s desk, delivering a $9 billion refund to the American taxpayer. Your taxpayer dollars should not be funding Iraqi Sesame Street, “Net Zero Cities" in Mexico, or the corrupt World Health…
Thank you, President Trump, for standing with Minnesota’s Iron Range and fighting back against Biden’s radical anti-mining regulations. Biden’s unworkable and politically motivated Taconite Rule would have shut down every iron ore mine—destroying jobs and communities. I’m proud…
The One Big Beautiful Bill strengthens SNAP, ensuring it helps those truly in need while tackling fraud and abuse. Let's protect our families and restore the program's mission!
The proposed NLX project would be another Minnesota boondoggle. Fortunately, my colleagues on the House Appropriations Committee agreed, and now the taxpayer will be spared from paying for such a fiscally irresponsible project. startribune.com/republican-bil…
Despite fear mongering from the left earlier this year, funding for the Blatnik Bridge replacement project was never in jeopardy. I’m glad to see my friend @SecDuffy and this administration’s Department of Transportation prioritize traditional infrastructure projects rather than…
There's a lot of fake news going around right now. The One Big, Beautiful Bill is a major win for EVERY AMERICAN.
GREAT NEWS ALERT: I just received word that the Biden administration’s misguided decision to close the Federal Prison Camp in Duluth has been overturned by the Trump administration, ensuring the facility will remain open and operational for years to come. Thank you Federal…
Beautiful sunrise in the Northland this morning. Have a great week everyone!
One year ago, we witnessed an assassination attempt on President Trump in Butler, PA. Just moments after the shots rang out, the President miraculously rose up and yelled “fight,fight, fight” - a powerful demonstration of American strength and determination. I’m deeply grateful…
Minnesota is under another air quality alert this weekend due to smoke from Canadian wildfires. Our health is at risk. Canada must take stronger action to manage its forests. Enough is enough.
From Bemidji to Hoyt Lakes, it’s been a productive week! Check out highlights from this week in the latest recap video!
I was honored to speak at Better In Our Backyard's 3rd Annual Vista Event on Lake Superior last night. Great to join friends from all over the district to discuss our shared commitment to growing jobs and economic opportunity in Minnesota.
Let’s cut through the lies and focus on facts to build a stronger Minnesota! 🇺🇸
The One Big Beautiful Bill act provides $50 billion for rural hospitals over the next five years. This means that Minnesota will see AT LEAST $100 million a year to support providers and ensure our rural residents receive the best care possible. This important legislation…
