It was incredible to tour the Indian Health Board’s new clinic, Menaandawiwe Wellness Campus, in Minneapolis. This new facility will allow the Indian Health Board to serve up to 1,700 more community members each year, expanding our neighbors' access to quality care.

We lost two beautiful children at Annunciation Catholic School. Since the horrific attack, parents from the Annunciation Light Alliance have been organizing to end gun violence. We sat down to discuss legislative solutions to prevent this kind of loss and trauma from happening again.

Any time an industry comes to you and says, “Help us regulate ourselves,” you have to be skeptical. AI needs strong guardrails to protect the public—not rules written to make tech CEOs and billionaires even richer.

Trump's oil blockade has exponentially worsened the human rights crisis in Cuba. The Cuban people are facing frequent blackouts. They lack access to basic needs like food and medicine. We must break the blockade and ensure human rights for the people of Cuba.

Thank you to over 9,000 Minnesotans who tuned into our September telephone town hall last night. When votes keep us in Washington, we find a way to make our monthly town halls happen.📱💪🏽 This is cogovernance at work!

Our job is to protect the working class and educate our future workforce — not line the pockets of corporate donors. Republicans are prioritizing their own bottom lines and putting corporate interests first. It's shameful.

An undercover ICE agent was outside of my town hall last week. Trump is continuing to use ICE and DHS to intimidate Americans who disagree with him. I'm demanding answers. My letter:

I co-led a bill to give schools the resources they need to protect students from ICE’s terror. No kid should have to learn in fear. Every student, regardless of immigration status, deserves a safe, stable learning environment where they can learn and thrive.

Republicans are pushing a budget bill that funnels $95 BILLION towards Trump's deadly wars abroad AND makes it harder for millions of eligible Americans to cast their ballots. Voted NO.

Arresting political opponents is straight out of the authoritarian playbook. @replamonica.bsky.social is in court today for conducting LAWFUL oversight and doing HER JOB. Trump continues to weaponize the Justice Department against his critics. We've got your back, LaMonica.

Surprise, surprise: Trump's top labor prosecutor sided with Amazon, her former client, and hurt delivery drivers in their fight for fair working conditions. It’s her responsibility to hold law-breaking companies accountable — not to give Trump's billionaire buddies bailouts.

Israel's war in Lebanon has killed thousands of civilians and displaced over a million — and the United States is bankrolling this terror. It's unconscionable. We must pass Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib's War Powers Resolution and stop the United States' complicity in Israel's war crimes.
