This appears to be an execution by immigration enforcement. I am absolutely heartbroken, horrified, and appalled that federal agents murdered another member of our community. It is beyond shameful these federal agents are targeting our residents instead of protecting them. This isn’t isolated or accidental. The Trump administration is trying to beat us into submission rather than protect us. This administration cannot continue violating constitutional rights under the guise of immigration enforcement. ICE and CBP must leave Minnesota immediately. Their presence is terrorizing our communities, violating rights, and taking lives with zero accountability. Minnesota was once a place of refuge, and Trump has turned it into a war zone where unchecked federal forces murder our neighbors.

It is preposterous for the White House and the Pentagon to think of requesting any defense money from Congress while waging a war we never authorized, let alone $200 billion. Recent reporting has shown that this war is already costing American taxpayers between $1 and $2 billion a day and has caused the deaths of 13 servicemembers, nearly 1,500 Iranian civilians, and dozens of civilians throughout the Middle East. Donald Trump owns this war. He walked us into this catastrophic and deeply unpopular war. This is a war of choice with no apparent endgame. Instead of getting us into another quagmire, this money could go towards lowering costs for Americans, including by fully funding the ACA tax credits, feeding hungry kids, and taking care of our veterans. It is deeply shameful that Republicans always find money for wars, but are unable to allocate funds to take care of the American people. Congress should immediately reject this request. CC: @Ilhan

Here's a clear message for my Senate Republican colleagues: we will NOT support a bill that disenfranchises millions of American citizens. The SAVE Act is voter suppression. It's a NO.

Workers' compensation is a promise we made to federal workers—that if you're injured while serving the public, we will not abandon you. As we work to modernize these programs, we must ensure our reforms don’t sacrifice the protections & earned benefits injured workers rely on.

The SAVE Act is the largest assault on voting rights in recent history. This bill will disenfranchise millions of voters including women who changed their name after marriage, students who moved out for college, or folks living with mobility issues. Our Senators must vote NO.

Congress must stop Trump's illegal war in Iran and put an end to this path of needless death and destruction.

The first week of Trump's illegal war in Iran cost Americans over $11 billion. Each day costs nearly $2 billion more. Gas prices are the highest they've been since 2023. Americans can't afford this expensive, endless war. It's time to stop Trump's reckless abuse of power.

A 3rd grader in Minneapolis sent this postcard to my office. It’s gut wrenching to think about what our kids have had to endure during the federal occupation. Messages like these drive my work in Congress. We must keep fighting for the brighter future our children deserve.

The reports coming out of West Bloomfield are horrifying. I am praying for the safety of everyone at Temple Israel. No one should face violence anywhere, especially in a place of worship.

Ed Felien has had a remarkable career as a journalist and community leader. Ed and his team at Southside Pride have kept Minnesotans informed with reliable news for 35 years. While we'll miss their reporting, we wish Ed the very best in his retirement! #MinnesotaMinute

It’s my honor to be presented with the Equal Rights Champion Award by @ERACoalition. I’ll never stop working towards a country where everyone has the rights and opportunities they deserve. The fight for equality continues! 💪🏽

Hard to cook when you can't afford food. Let's start with making groceries cheaper by reversing Trump's cruel SNAP cuts.

We held a moment of silence on the House Floor to honor the servicemembers who lost their lives in Kuwait, including Sgt. First Class Nicole M. Amor of White Bear Lake. My deepest sympathies go out to their families, friends, and loved ones.

Our veterans deserve safe, stable housing when they return from service. I was proud to secure $750K in federal funding for the Robin, an affordable housing complex for unhoused veterans. I'll keep fighting to end veteran homelessness in our state. 💪🏽#DeliveringfortheFifth

Proud my amendment passed in the Enhancing Detection of Human Trafficking Act in the House! It will strengthen how we identify human trafficking cases and require agencies to consult victim advocates so our response is truly survivor-centered.

Americans are exhausted by endless wars built on lies and paid for with American and foreign lives. I'm urging my colleagues to vote YES on the War Powers Resolution authored by Khanna-Massie and stop Trump's illegal war in Iran.

The Trump Administration is allegedly not enforcing a rule that requires coal operators to contribute their fair share to the Black Lung Disability Trust Fund. This rule protects miners and taxpayers. @BobbyScott and @Ilhan are demanding to know why. safetyandhealthmagazine.com/lawmakers-push…

What an honor to host this year’s Congressional Iftar with my brother and sisters, @RepAndreCarson, @RepRashida, and @RepLSimon! Thank you to everyone who joined us last night to break fast ❤️ May we never dim our light!

Absolutely heartbreaking. Praying for Nicole’s family and loved ones 🙏🏽 kare11.com/article/news/l…

This morning, our office announced the creation of the Transparency and Accountability Project (TAP) in the wake of Operation Metro Surge to collect and assess evidence submitted by the public of potentially unlawful behavior by federal agents. forms.office.com/pages/response…

You all should have had a plan in place before you started a war. The only guidance Americans have gotten is find your own way home. The State Department needs to charter flights and buses for Americans and their families immediately.
