23 years ago, we lost Paul and Sheila Wellstone, their daughter Marcia, and beloved staff members Mary, Tom, and Will. As Paul said, “We all do better when we all do better.” We carry that spirit with us as we continue fighting for justice, compassion, and opportunity for all.

Choosing not to feed Americans in need is unacceptable. The Administration knows it can use emergency funds for SNAP payments—it even deleted the memo posted on its website saying it could. They are choosing to inflict pain on families. www.cnn.com/2025/10/24/p...
Trump administration won’t use contingency fund to pay November food stamp benefits | CNN Politics
The US Department of Agriculture says it will not tap into its $6 billion contingency fund to cover food stamp benefits next month, according to an agency memo obtained by CNN. That means that roughly...

The President claims American cattle ranchers "don't understand" their own industry and wants to import more beef from Argentina, a major competitor. Trump needs to stop undercutting our farmers and ranchers to prop up his political ally in Argentina. www.cnbc.com/2025/10/22/t...
Trump says U.S. cattle ranchers 'don't understand' tariffs after some slam Argentine beef plan
President Donald Trump said U.S. cattle ranchers "don't understand" how they have benefitted from his tariffs, adding that they "have to get their prices down."

Last November, these states voted for Trump because he promised to lower costs on Day 1. Now, insurance premiums are set to double because he won't extend the health care tax credits. Americans across the country want to lower costs, not raise them.

Happy birthday to my husband and great dad, John! Many memorable times this year, including the State Fair and the giant inflatable Vikings player that suddenly deflated before our eyes. Hope you have a great day that ends with a Vikings win tonight!

Trump is weaponizing the Justice Department to give himself millions in taxpayer dollars, attack his political enemies, and protect who he considers his friends. This is a threat to the justice system and the rule of law.
Senator Amy Klobuchar@klobuchar.senate.govOct 22(source)
I stood on the Senate floor with my friend @merkley.senate.gov who has been speaking through the night against authoritarianism & corruption.

 As the President turns the Justice Department into his personal law firm, he’s doing nothing to prevent health care premiums from doubling.
Senator Amy Klobuchar@klobuchar.senate.govOct 21(source)
As Ag Committee Ranking Member, I'm proud to work with @smith.senate.gov to advance our bill to ensure Thye-Blatnik payments continue to benefit Minnesotans. These payments support law enforcement, infrastructure, and search-and-rescue within the Boundary Waters.

A couple in their 60s in Marshall could see their monthly premiums increase from $233 to almost $400. That’s a 70% increase. With prices already rising, that means families will have to choose between paying for essentials or health care.
Senator Amy Klobuchar@klobuchar.senate.govOct 20(source)
In western MN, some people will see their health insurance premiums double if Congressional Republicans refuse to act. In Moorhead, a family of four could see their monthly premiums increase from less than $200 to more than $500—an increase of $4,100 a year.

The numbers don't lie. We are in the midst of a healthcare crisis. New Jerseyans: if you are getting notices of increased premium costs in the mail, or if the expiration of ACA tax credits will impact you and your family, we want to hear from you. 1/2

Farmers are fighting for their livelihoods. But the President is more focused on his friends in Argentina.

Q: What do you have to say to farmers who feel that the deal is benefitting Argentina more than it is them? TRUMP: Look, Argentina is fighting for its life, young lady. You don't know anything about it. You understand what that means? They are dying

In Minnesota and states across the country, Americans are seeing their premiums more than double next year. We can change that if Congressional Republicans work with us to extend the health care tax credits.

Minnesota and Maryland also opened window shopping for 2026 ACA marketplace plans, and people are seeing their premiums spike due to expiring tax credit enhancements. A typical 60-year-old Minnesotan couple making $85,000 will face a $15,500 increase in annual premiums. (1/4)
