Why are Republicans trying to rush through their Big Beautiful Betrayal this week? Maybe they don’t want you to know what’s in it?  Takes health care from 16 million people Raises grocery costs for millions Increases debt by $3.4 trillion Gives the wealthiest $400K tax break

Congressional Republicans claimed they wanted to cut waste in their “Big Beautiful Bill.” But a last-minute carve out to pass the bill means it does the unthinkable: it rewards multiple states with the highest errors. Check this out: washingtonpost.com/opinions/2025/…

Mass layoffs in affordable energy will cause project delays and cancellations, while we cede ground to China. It is a Big Beautiful Betrayal of the American people.

The sun setting on the Capitol as I head home. Maybe that’s a metaphor but tomorrow will be a new day.

John and I are saddened to hear of the passing of State Senator Bruce Anderson. A proud Navy veteran, he dedicated his life to public service. Our prayers are with his family, friends, and all who loved him.

Last weekend John and I saw the MN Guthrie production of Cabaret directed by the great Joe Haj. It was very moving and the performances were extraordinary. startribune.com/review-sizzlin…

Big Pharma's "pay-for-delay" deals block cheaper generics, costing $50B+ over 10 years. We must pass my bipartisan bill to crack down on these schemes and save patients $5B and taxpayers $27B.

The High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area program is critical in our fight against trafficking - bringing federal, state, and local law enforcement together to get deadly drugs off our streets. We must continue to support HIDTA so officers have what they need to keep us safe.

OK I loved the F1 movie! And FYI, last year I led the senate effort when the @Cadillac_F1 team was excluded from the F1 grid. I'm glad F1 reversed course & allowed an all-American team to compete in 2026. This is a big win for competition, American manufacturing, & fans!

Joined Bloomington Mayor Busse and Chief Hodges, St. Paul Chief Henry, and Stearns County Sheriff Soyka to highlight the need to support the High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area program. It effectively fights drug trafficking through federal, state & local coordination.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has returned more than $20 billion to Americans, but this Administration slashed its funding in the Big Beautiful Betrayal.  That’s bad news for all consumers—and good for scammers and companies trying to rip people off.

Tourism from Canada is down. The President’s actions and rhetoric are alienating one of our strongest allies, and our tourism-dependent businesses are suffering as a result.

The budget passed by Congressional Republicans is a broken promise. Instead of lowering costs or improving care, it takes away health coverage from millions and threatens rural hospitals and nursing homes. That isn’t what Americans were promised, and it’s not what they deserve.

We need to fully close the dangerous loophole in the law so that stalkers and domestic abusers cannot access deadly weapons. That’s why I introduced my bill to keep guns out of the hands of abusive dating partners and convicted stalkers, which will protect victims and save lives.

President Trump promised lower prices. Instead, Americans are getting tariffs and turmoil and record-high beef costs at the grocery store.

There’s no better place for the Pan Continental Curling Championships than on the Iron Range. With 40 teams from 25 countries, it will be a true celebration of a sport beloved in Minnesota.🥌 mesabitribune.com/news/local/wor…

Millions of Americans receive local news and emergency alerts through public broadcasting. It is a vital resource but Republicans in Congress have slashed its funding, threatening hundreds of stations, especially in rural areas.

Continued attacks on the Fed threaten to increase inflation and interest rates. This is an attempt to deflect blame for higher costs that Americans will see through.

Stephen Colbert is a brilliant host and an even better person. I always loved being on The Late Show, and our most difficult and memorable interview was broadcast live from the Capitol the night of Jan. 6.

Good news: A federal judge reversed President Trump’s illegal decision to fire FTC Commissioner Slaughter. Glad she’ll be back at work protecting consumers.

Emil Bove is up for a lifetime appointment. This is not a time to rush through the process, violate the rules, and end debate. But that’s what Republicans on the Judiciary Committee just did. I was the next to speak and they barred us from debating. So we walked out.
