Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill just raised health insurance rates by an average of $2,000 a year for middle class Minnesotans. He’s prioritizing the pocketbooks of the wealthy - leaving rural communities, middle class families, and small businesses out in the dust.

Wishing a blessed Yom Kippur to all Minnesotans observing. May you have an easy and meaningful fast. G'mar Chatima Tovah!

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govOct 1(source)

My offices remain open and ready to serve you.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govOct 1(source)

I hope Republicans come to the table and begin working with us on commonsense legislation that cancels health care cuts, lowers out-of-pocket costs, and saves the affordable care that American families count on.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govOct 1(source)

East Metro residents and all Minnesotans have my word that I will do everything within my power to work across the aisle to end this shutdown as soon as possible.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govOct 1(source)

However, some constituent service requests will be delayed as federal agencies are forced to furlough workers.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govOct 1(source)

President Trump and Congressional Republicans have forced our country into a government shutdown, but my office remains open, and my staff will continue to serve the people of Minnesota’s Fourth Congressional district.

When the Secretary of Defense announces he’s overhauling the Inspector General while under investigation by them for disseminating classified material on Signal, leaders need to call it what it is: Corruption.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govSep 30(source)

If Republicans in Congress won’t act to stop gun violence, the Minnesota Legislature should work with @governorwalz.mn.gov to protect Minnesotans.

Gov. Walz suggests constitutional amendment to address gun violence

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has reportedly floated a constitutional amendment to address gun violence in the state.

Ernie was a tireless champion for Indian Country & a dear friend to me. As Chairman of the Indian Gaming Association, he brought tribal leaders and Members of Congress together in defense of tribal sovereignty. His family and the Oneida nation are in my thoughts and prayers as they mourn his loss.

Obituary: Gaming icon Ernie Stevens Jr. oversaw record-breaking growth in tribal gaming

The chair of the Indian Gaming Association died suddenly on Friday, Sept. 26 just weeks after being honored for his legacy.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govSep 30(source)

Instead, he delivered a rambling campaign-style speech that was highly inappropriate. Our military deserves far better than the failed leadership of this President and Secretary of Defense.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govSep 30(source)

President Trump could have used this speech to thank our troops for their service, and lay out his priorities for the national security of the United States.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govSep 30(source)

The President’s comments were a disservice to our service members who take an oath to defend our nation in a different role than federal, state, and local law enforcement officers.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govSep 30(source)

Today, President Trump advocated the use of American cities as a training ground for U.S. troops in a speech to our most senior military leadership. This language is unacceptable, outrageous, and dangerous coming from the Commander-in-Chief.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govSep 30(source)

The government is on pace to shut down at midnight. Donald Trump can’t make a deal, and Speaker Johnson cancelled votes that could have averted a shutdown. Democrats are in D.C. to negotiate a funding bill that will permanently protect expiring Affordable Care Act tax credits.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govSep 29(source)

The government will shut down at midnight tomorrow unless Congress takes action. I'm here in Washington, and I'm ready to vote for a bipartisan bill that funds healthcare and keeps the government open.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govSep 29(source)

Republicans have complete control of Washington — The House, the Senate, and the White House. If the federal government shuts down, it's because Republicans have made the decision to shut it down.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govSep 29(source)

Unless Republicans act now to protect the Affordable Care Act, Minnesotans will see their healthcare costs soar. While Republicans are scattered across the country after Speaker Johnson canceled votes that could've prevented a shutdown, Democrats are in D.C. ready to get to work.

Niron Magnetics is building the future right here in Minnesota. Manufacturing leaders are choosing to invest and grow here. That’s not an accident - it’s the result of intentional policies and partnerships that make us the best state to turn great ideas into great businesses.
