As Dean of the Congressional Delegation, I have been in touch with my colleagues, who share my profound shock and deep sadness over this tragedy.

This is a shocking and heinous act of targeted political violence against elected officials. It was clearly intended to instill fear in our communities.
I am beyond devastated by the premeditated murder of Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark, and the attempted murder of Senator John Hoffman and his wife Yvette.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
