Big news in the fight against HIV right here – we can better reach communities that are still being missed by getting rid of costly barriers patients face while trying to get on PrEP.   That’s exactly why I wrote the PrEP Access and Coverage Act.
Honored to join the Indian Health Board on Indigenous Peoples' Day for the ground blessing of their Menaandawiwe Wellness Campus. This project will blend modern and traditional medicine, creating a place of healing and connection to nature for Native Americans.
U.S. Senator Tina Smith smiling while standing on stage at the Indian Health Board Ground Blessing.
I was honored to celebrate Indigenous Peoples' Day this morning with Native communities in the Twin Cities. Today is a reminder to acknowledge injustices towards Indigenous peoples past and present and reaffirm our commitment to uplifting Native communities.

I condemn the horrific terrorist attacks by Hamas on Israel, on Shabbat and Simchat Torah/Shemini Atzeret. These horrible attacks on civilians, the loss of life, and reports of hostage taking are an outrage. The United States stands in solidarity with Israel.
Workers bailed out the Big 3 auto manufacturers during the Great Recession to keep the companies afloat. Now these companies make billions in profit while workers see stagnant wages.   That's not okay.   I stand with striking Minnesota and Wisconsin United Auto Workers in Hudson.
U.S. Senator Tina Smith smiling for a group photo with UAW workers who are holding signs from their strike.
This sustainable, solar-powered structure will house MIGIZI’s programs, including the Green Jobs program, which prepares Native students for careers in STEM and clean energy through an Indigenous lens.
MIGIZI makes sure that Native youth in the Twin Cities have the opportunity to connect with their cultures, build careers and be community leaders.   Today they opened the doors to a new facility.
Republicans stole two Supreme Court seats and appointed justices who flat out ignore precedent to do the bidding of Big Oil, Wall Street… really any right-wing, dark-money group with deep pockets. We need to expand the Court.
We owe it to Tribal Nations and Native families to do more. We need to pass the Truth and Healing Commission on Indian Boarding School Policies in the United States Act to take full accounting of what happened and help families heal.
Understanding the generational trauma of boarding schools opens us up to the broader dialogue about addressing and reconciling historical injustices.   That’s why I am so glad to see Secretary Haaland spearheading an effort to do just that.
Her mother spent time at boarding schools. Jean spent seven years in boarding schools. She rarely saw her parents and was detached from Tribal culture, a burden she carries to this day. She’s always known she wanted to provide more for her children – including a real education.
Jean was sent to three boarding schools, including one at Fort Totten in Devil’s Lake, North Dakota. Four girls shared an 8ft x 10ft room. They were silent in the cafeteria. They couldn't be outside without permission. They were shoved by teachers for visiting in the hall.
Native American families carry the generational trauma of boarding schools, where the federal government systematically tried to erase their culture. It’s one of our nation’s greatest injustices.   Let’s talk about Jean Brunkow, who is part of one of those families.
Autoworkers made huge sacrifices to keep the Big 3 auto manufacturers afloat in the lead up to the 2008 financial crisis. The Big 3 wouldn’t be here (making staggering profits, I might add) if it wasn’t for workers. They deserve fair wages and benefits.
Racial justice and economic justice go hand-in-hand. I spoke with Black entrepreneurs about how access to capital is key for those looking to improve their business and community. Investing in Black communities means expanding that access and creating opportunity for everyone.
