Minnesotans, we’ve been through a lot. And I believe this moment calls for grit, resilience, and faith in each other. I believe we must stand up for what’s right. And fix what’s wrong. Today, I’m announcing my candidacy for Governor.

Good news: “A deserved defeat for the administration on NIH funding cuts” washingtonpost.com/opinions/2026/…

Loved this story about following the “purple trail.” Prince truly was the superstar next door here in Minnesota, with his music shaped by the community he loved. nytimes.com/2026/04/13/tra…

Farmers are facing rising fertilizer costs and tight margins due to this administration's war in Iran and tariffs. My bipartisan bills will increase transparency in pricing and strengthen domestic production, giving farmers the certainty they need. cannonfallsbeacon.com/news/business/…

Welcome back KG! Perfect way for the Timberwolves to wrap up the regular season. Now let's go beat Denver!

“Someone has to stand up and say there’s a better way.” Pope Leo isn't afraid — and we aren’t either — to call for peace over war.

Note: Bringing in JD Vance at the end doesn’t really work. This administration’s track record has a way of getting around (the world). Orban, Beacon to the Right, Concedes Defeat in Hungary’s Election nytimes.com/2026/04/12/wor… via @NYTimes

One of many reasons I strongly opposed the “Big Beautiful” Betrayal of a bill. First tariffs. Then this. Rural Minnesota economies under threat as feds cut safety net programs startribune.com/federal-benefi…

Big congratulations to Hermantown’s Max Plante of the Minnesota Duluth Bulldogs on winning the Hobey Baker Award—the top honor in college hockey! duluthnewstribune.com/sports/bulldog…

Melissa and Mark Hortman were dedicated to serving others and were proud parents who loved their family and our state. Thank you to Sophie and Colin for sharing their story—and to all working to honor their legacy. startribune.com/sophie-and-col…

I met with leaders from our Hmong community who play a big role in strengthening our state's entire economy—especially now. The ICE surge took a real toll on small businesses, but Minnesotans have supported each other and we are coming back strong.

Nice! And congrats to the entire crew and NASA staff.

Joined an incredible group of DFLers in Eagan today. So much energy and greatly appreciate the grass roots support for my campaign for governor. Let’s get to work!

Great to be with hundreds of energized DFLers (and some great kids) in Eden Prairie! Thanks for the spirited intro from high school teacher/legislator extraordinaire Steve Cwodzinski!

Exciting to watch the successful reentry of Artemis II. Congrats to NASA and all staff and the incredible crew members!

Our first responders put their lives on the line to keep us safe. That’s why I fought to pass the Honoring Our Fallen Heroes Act to ensure that we support families of first responders who pass away or are permanently disabled by service-related cancers.

The President should be prioritizing what’s made right here at home. duluthnewstribune.com/news/local/tru…

Costs are up. Chaos is up. And corruption is up. This Administration is not focused on bringing down prices. Instead, they have dragged us into a war in the Middle East and trade wars across the globe.

I was with a great group of DFLers in Bemidji. Across Minnesota, people are organizing, talking to their neighbors, and bringing people together for a better future for all of us.

Incredible bravery and calm under pressure shown by St. Paul Fire Captain Brian Buxton rescuing DNR Officer Annette Schlag. It’s a powerful reminder of the skill, training, and teamwork our first responders use to keep us safe.
