When the SS Edmund Fitzgerald tragically sunk in 1975, investigations by the Coast Guard led to major changes to improve the safety of Great Lakes shipping.
50 years later, we remain grateful for the work of our Coast Guard heroes who are always ready when disaster strikes.

These tax credits are pro-family, pro-small business, and pro-American.
President Trump has made it clear: he's leaving working people in the dust.
Farmers are being hurt from all sides—skyrocketing health care premiums, rising input costs, and extreme weather – all at once.
We need to work to address one of these problems by extending the health care tax credits so thousands of family farms don’t suffer.

Read the joint statement from myself, Senator Mark Kelly (D-AZ) and Representatives Jason Crow (D-CO-06), Chris Deluzio (D-PA-17), Maggie Goodlander (D-NH-02), and Chrissy Houlahan (D-PA-06):
It’s about time corporate landlords are held accountable for using algorithms to price-gouge renters.
Tech like AI should be used to drive prices down, not help corporations collude to charge you more.
I’ll keep working to make housing more affordable.
This unlawful Executive Order would attack states for enacting AI guardrails that protect consumers, children, and creators—including by threatening high-speed internet for rural communities.
This was already rejected by the Senate 99 to 1, and it must be rejected again.
Trump does not trump the Constitution.
While he threatens the rule of law, takes health care away from Americans, and raises costs, we need to focus on fighting back in the Courts, in Congress, and at the ballot box.

As @mnfarmersunion.bsky.social’s Anne Schwageral said, “It’s tough to run an operating note for 2026 on a hope and a prayer.”
We need to reverse the administration’s reckless tariffs and provide our family farmers with the certainty and support they need.

For Newark’s University Hospital, GOP Medicaid cuts will spread already tight budgets even thinner.
This will strain hospital staff. It will close support programs. Your care will suffer.
All to keep billionaires from paying their fair share of taxes.

Trump lies with reckless abandon, but Americans are smart enough to know the truth… he’s focused more on enriching himself than bringing down prices for Americans… and we’re all stuck with higher costs for groceries, utilities, and housing as a result.
Trump ordered the Justice Department to investigate his political opponents while protecting and rewarding his friends.
The Justice Department is supposed to work for the American people—not be the president’s personal law firm.
I’ve got a better idea than an $8,000 camp… finally pass some laws to make Big Tech take responsibility for protecting children online.

News from Senate floor: Schumer just asked for unanimous consent to pass Epstein file bill which overwhelmingly passed House.
No objection! So long as Johnson sends it over to Senate it is done and on to White House. On to you Trump and DOJ.
This ruling makes clear our laws aren't keeping pace with technology and we must pass my bipartisan bill to take on tech monopolies, return competition to digital markets, and protect consumers.
Now, there are no more excuses for not passing pro-competition legislation.
November is National Epilepsy Awareness Month. About 1 in 26 people will develop epilepsy during their lifetime, and knowing seizure First Aid can save a life.

Donald Trump repeatedly told us that his tariffs would not increase prices for consumers.
So why on Earth is he lowering his tariffs on various foods?
Duh, because his tariffs raised prices.
Just another day with Don the Con.
Reposted bySenator Amy Klobuchar
Thanks to Trump and MAGA Republicans, your health care could cost DOUBLE next year, while the richest Americans will pay LESS taxes.
It’s downright cruel.
President Trump was dead set against releasing the Epstein files until he realized they had the votes in the House with or without him.
After the House vote today, the Senate needs to act.
It’s time to release the files.
