The federal government has provided no legal justification for capturing private data on millions of Minnesotans - and we have no idea whatsoever how this personal information would be used.

The wealthy few want to divide us—by race, ZIP code, or background—to keep power in the hands of a select few. But democracy isn’t just about casting a ballot. It’s about all of us having the power to speak out, demand change, and protect our rights—every day.
Steamy weather could not dampen our spirits nor those of the supportive Chanhassen 4th of July Parade spectators! A huge thank you to @lucyrehmmn, the Handmaids of MN, & all the volunteers who walked with us - what a fantastic crew! #4thofjuly2025 #carvercountydfl

Republican Senator Rand Paul: “This will be the largest increase in our debt ceiling in our history…once conservative Republicans vote for this, there is no conservative opposition. They will own it. The debt will be owned by the Republicans."
We all want to get rid of waste, fraud, and abuse. But the fraud in health care isn’t with poor and working people — it’s with the corporate insurers who rip off the government and the American people.
The day she was sworn in as House Speaker in 2019, Melissa Hortman thanked her family for getting her there. #mnleg #Hortman
If you’re zip-tying grandmas protesting losing health care maybe you’re not the good guys in the story?
Arresting people in wheelchairs protesting Medicaid cuts.
The Republican budget is apparently going to have a slush fund to bail out red state hospitals while allowing blue state hospitals to close because of the devastating Medicaid cuts. Let's call this what it is - a fundamental corruption. A blow to the heart of our 50 state union.
Over 300 rural hospitals are at risk of closing because the Big Beautiful Betrayal strips health care from 16 million people and drives $500 billion in Medicare cuts by increasing the national debt. The impact on rural America would be devastating.
"We now need a thousand Melissa Hortmans. We need people to step up where she left off." Melissa believed that every person held the capacity to improve the world. Let's prove her right. minnesotareformer.com/2025/06/20/we-…

The Big Beautiful Betrayal lowers incomes for nearly 100 million working families, raises mortgage costs, and takes funding from rural hospitals — all while giving massive tax breaks to the wealthy. This isn’t the bill for you and we must reject it.
Devastated by the tragic loss of our beloved Speaker Emeritus, Melissa Hortman, & her husband Mark. Sending prayers for healing to Senator Hoffman & his wife Yvette. “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”
I am heartbroken and horrified by the tragic loss of Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, who were taken from us in an act of violence. Melissa was a good friend and we started in politics at the same time and were always there for each other. She was a true public…
The longest serving incumbent mayor in the country, a Republican, just got fired by Democrat John Ewing in Omaha, NE. Congratulations Mayor-Elect Ewing, @NebraskaDems, and the @DemMayors. Watch out @GOP - we are winning all over the country up and down the ballot.
Billionaires don't need another big tax cut paid for on the backs of people that need help with food. That's a bad idea.
Too many of our kids are going hungry, and yet they're still plowing forward with the largest cuts to SNAP in American history. They're taking the $6/day that people get in food assistance so they can give it to the wealthiest corporations on the planet.
