I know that President Zelenskyy wants nothing more than peace and security for his people—but it must be a peace that respects Ukrainian sovereignty and guarantees that Russia will never again murder innocent Ukrainians in a land grab at the behest of a brutal dictator.
Donald Trump’s illegal federal funding freeze will raise the cost of energy for Minnesotans. $250 million was promised to help lower energy costs and reach our climate goals. Thanks to Donald Trump and Elon Musk, that money is put on hold.

Here are the facts: Ukraine is a sovereign, democratic nation that was illegally invaded by Russia at the direction of Putin. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is a crime against humanity, and Putin has murdered tens of thousands of Ukrainian civilians & kidnapped their children during this horrific war.
Today marks the start of the holy month of Ramadan, a time for renewal, reflection, and peace for our Muslim neighbors. Wishing my constituents and community members a blessed and peaceful month as they celebrate with family and friends.
In addition to deserting the U.S. fight against global hunger, President Trump’s USAID funding freeze will wreak havoc for Minnesota farmers who export their crops to war-torn communities and emerging nations around the world.

President Trump's behavior in the Oval Office today was shameful. Rather than standing with President Zelenskyy, a democratically-elected leader, President Trump and JD Vance continue to misrepresent Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine.
President Trump and Vice President Vance’s conduct today in the Oval Office was disgraceful.
The 'Big Beautiful Bill' is a nightmare for hardworking Minnesota families looking for help with the rising cost of living. Rather than taking action to reduce prices, the President and Congressional Republicans are pushing devastating health care cuts for millions of Americans.
The House Republican majority betrayed the American people tonight by voting to cut Medicaid and hand enormous tax breaks to giant corporations and their billionaire donors.
This cruel budget harms Minnesota's kids, seniors, and workers — I'll fight it every step of the way.
House Republicans are using their majority to serve their wealthy donors at the expense of working families.
House Republicans want to cut Medicaid by $880 billion. I’m voting NO!
More than 16,000 East Metro residents access health coverage through the Affordable Care Act. The Republican budget would cause premiums in MN-04 to rise by an average of $1,560 per year — a 41% spike. The GOP budget gives huge tax breaks to billionaires, but leaves working people with a big bill.
The reckless House Republican budget is a complete betrayal of working-class and middle-class Americans who want government to lower prices. Instead, Republicans in Congress are scheming to cut Medicaid and funnel tax breaks to their billionaire donors and giant corporations.
House Republicans intend to bring their budget for a vote today. They want to cut Medicaid by $880 billion, cut SNAP by $230 billion, and add $4 trillion to the deficit — all to provide a massive tax break to billionaires.
I will stand up for Minnesota and vote NO on this damaging GOP plan.
As we mark three years since Russia's illegal invasion of Ukraine, the U.S. should be standing strong with Ukraine and our democratic allies in Europe. Ukraine has a right to sovereignty, and Ukrainians should be able to live life freely without fear of violent attacks.
Today I joined UMN President Cunningham and business leaders in St. Paul for the first National Security Research & Innovation Day. Investments in research and workforce are vital to our national and economic security — and have the bipartisan support of Minnesota's Congressional delegation.
For almost 250 years, USPS has provided critical mail delivery ranging from letters to loved ones to prescriptions and social security payments. I have zero confidence in the ability of this White House to handle six-day deliveries across the country. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...
I commend the 14 Republican Minnesota Legislators who recognize the damage the U.S. House GOP budget would cause. It’s wrong to cut Medicaid — a healthcare lifeline for over a million Minnesotans with disabilities, seniors, and children — to give more tax breaks to billionaires like Elon Musk.
The Republican budget makes an $880 billion cut to Medicaid.
In Minnesota, 31% of kids and 34% of new moms and their babies depend on Medicaid.
I'll fight this and any other budget proposal that takes away health care from kids, parents, seniors, and people with disabilities.
