Today I joined @governorwalz.mn.gov and Niron Magnetics to break ground on a full-scale production facility that will create hundreds of high-paying manufacturing jobs. Niron's innovative technology will help create a sustainable, rare-earth free magnet supply chain in Minnesota.

Federal employees who deliver services that Americans rely on should not be used as pawns in a shutdown. Trump's threat to fire thousands of public servants is unacceptable — that's why I'm supporting @repjohnnyo.bsky.social's bill to prohibit laying off federal workers during a shutdown.

I recently convened a panel of Minnesota's top healthcare experts to discuss how Trump's Big Ugly Law is harming Minnesotans' care and leading to hospital closures. In DC, I'll continue to oppose all Republican efforts to take away food, healthcare, and basic government services.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govSep 25(source)

Democrats will be back in DC on September 29 ready to act to lower health care costs and keep government open for Americans. To keep government open and lower costs, we need bipartisan negotiations now.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govSep 25(source)

Republicans’ government spending bill failed in the Senate last week, but they canceled House votes and left town just days before funding runs out. Their bill failed to prevent the Republican health care crisis that’s driving up costs. Now Trump has canceled bipartisan talks.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govSep 24(source)

The government shuts down in six days, and Americans are facing a healthcare crisis created by Congressional Republicans. Democrats want to restore Medicaid and protect healthcare access. Trump and Republicans won't even have a meeting about how to keep the government open.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govSep 24(source)

I'm live at the State Capitol with a panel of Minnesota healthcare experts to discuss the harmful impacts of Trump and Congressional Republicans' policies. Tune in:

Today I joined residents of Marvella Senior Living in Saint Paul for a town hall to discuss how Trump’s Big Ugly Law is stripping health care from millions of Americans, causing costs to spike, and forcing hospitals to close.

Thanks also to my state colleagues for their partnership and support as I secured $4 million in federal funds for the Playwrights’ Center.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govSep 20(source)

Vladimir Putin is recklessly provoking a broader regional conflict of the war he started in Ukraine with his incursion of Estonian airspace by three MiG-31 fighter jets. The United States must continue to stand with Ukraine and our allies against Putin’s aggression. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Estonia says three Russian MiG-31 fighter jets remained in Estonian airspace for 12 minutes.

Republicans say they have a mandate. If House Republican leadership wants to go it alone on federal funding to keep our government open, that's their prerogative. But they shouldn't expect my vote.

On this Constitution Day, we must reaffirm our commitment to work towards that more perfect union the Constitution sought to create.
