Tragic news out of Minnesota this morning. My heart breaks for our neighbors across the river. We are praying for the Minnesota lawmakers and their families affected by this senseless political violence and all those who are working to respond to this horrific situation.

My heart is broken this morning learning of the politically motivated attacks on two Minnesota lawmakers and their spouses. I am mourning the lives lost and praying for the healing of the survivors. We must stand united against political violence.

Under the Republican budget bill, the poor will get poorer and the rich will get richer. We should lower taxes for working-class people and make sure the rich pay their fair share.

Democracy demands oversight, not handcuffs. Not just as a Senator, but as an American he has the right to free speech. The Trump Administration owes Senator Padilla and the American People an apology for this brazen abuse of power.

LGR BALLS. youtu.be/i3-3dvgYt7c HyperBowl is perhaps most known for being in the Windows XP Plus Pack, but first it was a (literally) huge arcade game by Sony for the San Francisco Metreon in 1999. Never got to play that but I played tons on PC, so let's look at the game and its various releases!

I’m overjoyed and can certainly say the decision ICE made today to accept Yessenia’s appeal is the right one. She is an upstanding member of the community fleeing trafficking who has the right to have her case heard.

Republicans aren’t being honest to you. Here's the truth. Republicans want to gut healthcare for millions of Americans to give tax breaks to billionaires and big corporations on the way to increasing the nation's deficit by an estimated $3 trillion. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/02/u...

This week’s main story is about how understaffing, long hours, and outdated equipment are making air traffic controllers’ jobs harder. And it’s also about bats. To an unexpected degree, this is also a story about bats. You’ve been warned.

Donald Trump is deporting people with valid asylum claims, fully aware they could face violence or death like my constituent Yessenia Ruano. He does not see a difference between criminals and our hardworking neighbors.

Everyone deserves to be safe, supported, respected, and valued at work. I am proud to stand with the nurses at Meriter as they stand up for their safety and the safety of their patients. We have to take care of our nurses so they can take care of us.

If the GOP forces Medicaid cuts in final passage of their Big Bonanza for Billionaires, vital support systems that enable family caregivers to provide in-home care for elderly and disabled loved ones will be dismantled. It's just cruel. www.pbs.org/newshour/sho...

ICYMI: The cost of child care is too darn high. The Legislature must do more than nothing in this biennial budget to support our state's child care providers and working families, or care for kids is only going to get more expensive and harder to find. We'll be in a world of hurt.

The greatest trick that the devil plays is to convince you that it won't be you who he devours. That is how Republicans are justifying cutting BILLIONS from American's health care to pay for tax cuts for the wealthiest among us.

Bad, bad news. Clearly, this isn’t about efficiency or saving money. It’s about giving tax cuts to billionaires and big corporations at the expense of our kids, families, seniors, and veterans by cutting critical programs like Medicaid.

There’s lies, damn lies, and trickle down economics. The Rules committee is on hour 18, and we’re poised to keep up legislative business through the night. Let’s address the lie Republicans tell with the most data to prove it false: trickle down economics DO NOT WORK.
