I, along with the world, watch in horror as the Trump Administration buoys Prime Minister Netanyahu’s extremist right-wing government. No child on this planet should be starved when the United States has the capacity to feed them.

I took a stand today in the Appropriations Committee.
Republicans have clawed back over $9 Billion in federal funding for public broadcasting and foreign aid that passed on a bipartisan basis just months ago. They are quickly surrendering power to Trump and his unelected bureaucrats like Russ Vought, the author of Project 2025.
The Mississippi River is the source of drinking water for many of us in Minnesota. It’s also a vital ecosystem and economic connector for our nation. But it faces threats that disrupt this delicate balance. I was glad to speak to PBS about these challenges and how my legislation would address them.
It's official: According to the Congressional Budget Office, Trump's Big Ugly Bill will add a whopping $3,400,000,000,000 to the debt. Your share of this debt bill is $10,000 — that’s what every man, woman, and child in America now owes — all so millionaires and billionaires can get more tax breaks.

My staff will host neighborhood office hours on Tuesday, July 22nd from 10:00AM – 12:00PM at the Woodbury City Hall in the Birch Conference Room. If you need help with a federal agency, members of my staff will be available to assist you. mccollum.house.gov/contact/neig...
Rondo Days is back again! Today from 11:00 AM – 7:00 PM Rondo Days will celebrate 43 years of bringing neighbors and community together with live performances from local artists, food trucks, and family-friendly fun for all ages. www.insightnews.com/news/rondo-d...
Stillwater’s 91st Lumberjack Days will be held today through Sunday. It’s one of our state’s longstanding festivals offers live music, a pancake breakfast, lumberjack demonstrations, a Sunday parade and more! www.hometownsource.com/stillwater_g...
NEW: I'm leading nearly 50 Members of Congress in fighting back against Donald Trump's attacks on public broadcasting. Local public media outlets don't just keep us informed — they provide real-time information to keep Americans safe during emergencies and natural disasters.
As we celebrate Disability Pride Month this July, I'm proud to join Minnesotans in commemorating the 35th anniversary of the ADA. Today from 10AM-1PM, Minnesotans can celebrate the 3rd annual Disability Pride Festival at the State Capitol! More info at: selfadvocacy.org/disability-pride-festival
UPDATE: Thanks to Attorney General Ellison (@ag.state.mn.us), Minnesota is standing up for our students by suing the Trump Administration for this funding.
It's horrifying that two young men, including Palestinian-American Sayfollah ‘Saif’ Musallet, were beaten to death in the West Bank by violent settlers. The Israeli government must be held accountable for this unconscionable brutality. My heart goes out to families & loved ones of these young men.
The National Weather Service has issued a heat advisory for the Twin Cities starting today from 12PM – 8PM with high temperatures and humidity. If you plan to be outside for an extended period of time, please plan ahead. forecast.weather.gov/wwamap/wwatx...
Students, teachers, and communities across the country will be harmed by the Supreme Court’s decision to allow the Trump administration to continue dismantling the Education Department, even as a court challenge to these damaging cuts continues.
On behalf of a grateful nation, I offer my sincere appreciation to the career diplomats whose work to advance American interests around the globe has been cut short by a shortsighted person who values personal loyalty over the national interest.
Now he is further weakening America’s ability to advance stability, peace, and prosperity through multilateral cooperation, which leaves our nation more vulnerable.
Trump’s action comes just months after he illegally dismantled USAID and ended decades of bipartisan American leadership on preventing HIV/AIDS, ending starvation, and aiding child and maternal health.
President Trump’s decision to eliminate over 1,300 positions at the State Department comes at a time when the world needs American leadership to be stronger, not weaker. America is most powerful when we fully employ the three Ds of national security – Development, Diplomacy, and Defense.
President Trump is illegally withholding $70 Million from Minnesota schools. This week, I led a letter to the White House demanding that this funding is released immediately. Shortchanging Minnesota schools doesn’t just harm students, it harms entire communities.
