Republicans voted to try to legalize Elon Musk's illegal and unconstitutional cuts to services Americans rely on — after the fact. Republicans are proving they’ll rubber stamp whatever Trump asks them to — no matter how destructive it is to our communities.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govJun 12(source)

It is appalling to see DHS agents handcuff and wrestle Alex Padilla to the ground for asking a question of Secretary Noem. This blatant abuse of power by the Trump Administration must be condemned by Republicans and Democrats alike. Trump wants Americans to be silent. We must be louder than ever.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govJun 12(source)

The federal government has absolutely no business regulating the reproductive healthcare decisions of American servicewomen. We trust our servicewomen to protect and serve our country — we should trust them to make decisions about their own bodies.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govJun 12(source)

The pristine lakes of the Boundary Waters — our nation’s most-visited wilderness — must be protected. Secretary Rollins put no thought, logic, or analysis into her decision to potentially expose the Rainy River watershed to highly toxic sulfide-ore copper mining.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govJun 12(source)

Republicans in Congress want to tear down our state because they don't like our Governor (he has a 58% approval rating). But here's the truth: Minnesota is a great place to live. We're #1 in health care, #2 in economic opportunity, #3 in homeownership, and #4 in quality of life.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govJun 12(source)

I welcome @governorwalz.mn.gov to Washington. But why is he here? Because House Republicans need to attack Democratic governors to try to distract Americans from an ugly truth – their Big Beautiful Bill strips health care away from their own constituents to give tax cuts to billionaires.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govJun 11(source)

This is a major win for clean water and for all Americans in the fight to protect our fresh water and our public lands from the greed of right-wing billionaires who want to sell off Minnesota's national treasure to a giant foreign corporation.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govJun 11(source)

Section 80131 would have handed out permits to multinational mining conglomerate Antofagasta for public lands within the watershed of the Boundary Waters — all while blocking federal courts from reviewing the decision.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govJun 11(source)

GOOD NEWS: Thanks to the leadership of @smith.senate.gov, Congress has removed a provision from the Big Ugly Bill that would have put the Boundary Waters at great risk.

Secretary Hegseth cannot answer a simple question about his own department's budget.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govJun 10(source)

The reason Secretary Hegseth refused to answer my question about the costs to deploy Marines to L.A. is because he didn't know the answer. We’ve since learned that President Trump's authoritarian political stunt will cost a staggering $134 Million – at least.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govJun 10(source)

Secretary Hegseth offers revisionist history because he can’t answer a single question about the defense budget.

Pete Hegseth is blatantly filibustering budget-related questions he's getting from Democratic House members

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govJun 9(source)

Justin Smith is a 26-year-old Roseville resident who has cerebral palsy, and he relies on Medicaid and SNAP to live independently. President Trump’s Big Ugly Bill would rip away his health care and food assistance to give tax cuts to millionaires and billionaires.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govJun 8(source)

Secretary Hegseth’s statement implying active duty Marines could also be called up is outrageous. The active duty military has absolutely no legal role in domestic law enforcement. President Trump and Secretary Hegseth should read the Constitution and follow the law.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govJun 8(source)

President Trump is deliberately escalating the situation in L.A. by calling up the National Guard without a request from Governor Newsom. This decision is downright dangerous.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govJun 6(source)

Eid Mubarak to all those celebrating in Minnesota and around the globe! Wishing peaceful, festive, and joyous days with family and friends for our neighbors commemorating Eid al-Adha.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govJun 6(source)

Trump illegally cut AmeriCorps funding. When Trump’s actions are being challenged in court — he’s losing. It’s time for Republicans to allow Congress to do its job to hold this president accountable.

Judge orders administration to reinstate AmeriCorps grants in 24 states, D.C.

The federal judge’s ruling on grants does not halt the Trump administration’s planned staffing cuts at AmeriCorps.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govJun 5(source)

At 80,000 strong, the Twin Cities are home to the largest Somali diaspora in the world — and I share their concerns about the deteriorating security situation there. President Trump’s travel ban and disengagement from Somalia will empower terrorists and destabilize the region.

Congresswoman Betty McCollum@mccollum.house.govJun 5(source)

President Trump and House Republicans’ 'Big Beautiful Bill' is just an ugly nightmare. This scam of a bill strips health care from 16 million Americans and adds over $2.4 trillion to the deficit, all to give a giant tax break to millionaires and billionaires who don’t need it.
