From tariffs to health care cuts, the Trump Admin has made life more unaffordable for Minnesotans.

And now, thanks to the war in Iran, the price of gas is skyrocketing too.

It’s just another one of Trump’s America Last policies. I wish I could say it’s surprising at this point.

There are no ifs ands or buts about it – the President does not have the power to declare war without approval from Congress. It’s in the damn Constitution.   

Today, I voted to immediately cease President Trump from carrying out any further illegal military action in Iran.

Minnesotans know we are not yet out of the woods — Senator Mullin will be just another rubber stamp for Trump’s illegal agenda. And I’ll keep fighting them at every turn.

Kristi Noem’s ICE terrorized our state and got two Minnesotans killed.

And to be clear, President Trump is firing Noem because she made him look bad, not because he believes her tactics were wrong.

It's a yes from me!

Today, House Republicans are again trying to jam through even more funding for Kristi Noem’s out-of-control ICE without any guardrails – or any accountability.

I’ll be voting no.

I refuse to give another penny to Noem’s ICE.

It’s that time of year again! The application for the 2026 Congressional Art Competition is now open.

I’m calling all high school artists to submit their work to my office by April 17th.

While my mom is in committee working on the farm bill all day, I’m holding down the fort at her office.

It’s hard work, but someone’s gotta do it! #DakotaintheHouse

Let’s talk about Trump’s record on the military:
- He called America’s fallen heroes “suckers and losers”
- He cut food assistance for 1.2 million veterans
- He cut health care for millions of veterans to pay for tax cuts to the rich
And now he’s putting our troops in danger with no clear objective.

The Trump administration started a war with no plan to evacuate American citizens in the Middle East.

With each passing day, it becomes clearer that they don’t have a plan for this military operation at all.

Trump campaign peace promises loom large over Iran war The "anti-war" candidate has bombed seven countries and launched a new regime-change war in Iran.

More broken promises, more lies and more unnecessary wars. This is Trump’s America.

President Trump campaigned on the promise of “no new wars.”

Meanwhile, he’s ordered more air strikes than any modern President, invaded seven different nations in his second term and is now putting American troops directly in harm’s way.

I will never stop pushing for transparency and accountability from this administration. Because Minnesotans deserve the truth.

@repilhan.bsky.social, @kellymorrisonmn.bsky.social, Rep. Betty McCollum and I were illegally turned away from the Whipple Building multiple times during Operation Metro Surge.

Today’s ruling reaffirms our legal right to conduct unannounced oversight visits at federal detention centers.

This from the guy who explicitly promised no new wars.

This is sickening and a slap in the face to every service member and their family.

Congratulations, Chief Jeff Tate, on your retirement! Thank you for your 28 years of service to the Shakopee community – I’m wishing you all the best in this next chapter.

While the President continues to act independently of Congress, the fact is: it is unconstitutional to go to war without Congressional authorization. I am pushing the Administration to prioritize reaching a diplomatic solution as quickly as possible.

I am closely monitoring what is a rapidly evolving situation in the Middle East. As we watch the fallout from the President’s strikes spread across the region, my top priority is keeping American troops and civilians in the Middle East safe.

President Trump literally promised no new wars and campaigned against forever wars, and now he’s doing the exact opposite — putting Minnesota service members in harm’s way.

Commissioner says HCMC could close as expenses continue to rise Those representing Hennepin Healthcare are asking state lawmakers to address the financial situation at HCMC.

The closure of HCMC would devastate the Minnesota health care community and make care inaccessible for Minnesotans all across the state.

This is a direct consequence of Trump’s health care cuts. Minnesota deserves better.

This week, House Republicans rolled back energy efficiency standards that lower costs for Minnesotans. Republicans claim they are focused on lowering the cost of living, but their actions tell a different story. It’s time for them to stop playing politics and start making life more affordable in MN.

As early as this week, the Senate could vote on whether to roll back environmental protections for the Boundary Waters.

The BWCA is one of Minnesota’s most prized natural resources and we must preserve it for future generations.

I’m urging every Senator to vote no on this bill.

It was an honor to speak at the Association of MN Counties’ annual breakfast.

As our counties have navigated unprecedented times this year, county commissioners have been on the frontlines. I’m grateful to have their partnership as we work together to make life better for folks across our state.

Vance says Minnesota’s Medicaid funds halted as part of Trump’s ‘war on fraud’ Vice-president makes announcement with Mehmet Oz, who says other states will be next after Minnesota

And now taking MORE people’s health care away — after the historic cuts they already made to Medicaid — is going to combat fraud? This is low even for them.

Here are the facts: The Trump Administration has launched all kinds of wars in Minnesota, but not a single one of them has been a war on fraud.

Instead of holding fraudsters accountable, they’ve targeted immigrants, seniors, farmers and working Minnesotans.

Today marks the 5-year anniversary of the Equality Act passing the House. As the first openly lesbian mother and wife elected to Congress, this bill will always hold a special place in my heart.

We will not let up until all Minnesotans have equal protection under the law.

President Trump continues to tell us ICE is leaving Minnesota. But there are still hundreds of agents in our state.

We’ll believe the talk of a drawdown when we see it. And we won’t stop pushing for accountability until we get it.
