🌿 This Memorial Day, we honor the courageous women and men who serve and have served our nation. Especially the fallen.

Salute to our Native American relatives who have served and sacrificed for our country.

Their rich heritage and unwavering bravery deserve our deepest respect and gratitude.

Let’s remember their legacy and the unique contributions they’ve made to our nation’s history.

🌾. “An ancient, sacred, the life-giving grain.

From the cradle of water to fire and to bowl,

A dark, earthy treasure that nourishes the soul. “ 🌾

Very, very proud to carry this legislation, championed by so many others across this great state of MniSota!

Indigenous rice farmers say the harvest has yielded less over the past few decades, leading to one senator's push to give the crop legal, inherent rights.

Despite unprecedented crises fueled by political violence and cruel federal actions, Senate DFLers focused on bringing down the cost of living, stabilizing healthcare, and securing public services — delivering meaningful results. We'll keep fighting for the additional public safety, consumer protections, and economic relief that Republicans blocked.

Yesterday was 15 hour day at the Capitol, but it was well worth it to ensure these projects received bonding dollars!

Bottom Line: $1.2 billion in investments throughout the state.

Nearly $270 million in Asset Preservation for repairs, upgrades, and investments for critical project needs
throughout communities across the state.

We’re taking care of Minnesota!!

Proud to partner with Rep. Erin Koegel and Representative Sandra Feist on this!

It’s the day after our last official legislative day, today we hear from our members who are entering retirement.

As I tidied up my desk, I came across this pen, and it made my heart twang.

Melissa gave me this pen to commemorate the passage of my Missing & Murdered Indigenous Womens Task Force legislation.

There is much to be thankful for in this role as an elected official. Today I am thankful for the leadership of Speaker Hortman, Leader Dziedzic, Leader Franzen, and Leader Murphy, and all of my colleagues who do good things for this beautiful state of MniSota.
