Wait, why would we make property tax relief LESS generous, artificially cap the amount of relief for homeowners most in need, and send Legacy Fund dollars out of state? 🤔🤔🤔 northdakotamonitor.com/2025/03/27/com…

I thank the Governor for this state investment, just as I thanked @PeteButtigieg when he delivered $30M in federal funds to Grand Forks for this essential infrastructure project. In the near future, long delays waiting for the train will be a thing of the past!

Great discussion with public and private representatives from Grand Forks this morning where we also announced that @NorthDakotaDOT will provide $20M in funding to expedite the completion of the railroad underpass project near @UofNorthDakota. Read full release: governor.nd.gov/news/armstrong…

Mad they voted against marriage equality? Mad they voted against school lunches and for private school vouchers? Mad they are cutting Medicaid to give tax cuts to Elon & his billionaire buddies? Me too. Let’s do something about it together and turn our anger into action.

Kudos to my friend (and former teacher), Rep. Jonas, for standing up to correct his vote. It’s easy to make a mistake, and I commend him for rectifying it. It shows high character to do that (just as it does to change your mind when given new info). inforum.com/news/north-dak…

Your love for your spouses is just as deserving of legal recognition and protection as anyone else’s is. To my LGBTQ friends, I’m sorry for this resolution. Please know you are valued and loved in ND even if too many of your political leaders vote against your interests.

The truth is the LGBTQ community is an integral part of our state. You own the small businesses we shop at. You are the doctors and nurses who treat us when we’re sick. You are the teachers and staff at our kids’ schools. You are our coworkers. You are our neighbors.

This vote really hurt. The message this sends isn’t to the Supreme Court; it’s to the thousands of gay and lesbian North Dakotans and their loved ones. And that message is they aren’t fully welcomed here. That breaks my heart. inforum.com/news/north-dak…

Please keep the Christy family in your prayers. We will greatly miss Josh’s wit and warmth in the House.
Governor Kelly Armstrong@GovArmstrong

Josh Christy was a passionate advocate for the residents of District 27 and all North Dakotans, a loving husband and doting father to three beautiful daughters, and someone I was honored to call a friend. Kjersti and I are heartbroken for Mary and the girls, and we ask that all North Dakotans join us in praying for Josh’s family, friends and legislative colleagues during this difficult time. governor.nd.gov/news/armstrong…

In his first month back in office, the President has trampled on the rule of law, further divided the nation, and done nothing to bring down prices. That’s not worthy of congratulations in my book.

Spot on. When the top issue for North Dakotans is lowering our household costs, the state providing school meals for all is a huge economic win for families. That it also will improve students’ learning and behavior is just a great added bonus. Let’s pass HB 1475.
Rob Port@robport

Paying for school lunches would amount to targeted tax relief for North Dakota families with school-age children. There's room in our state budget for that. inforum.com/opinion/column…

This is a huge step forward for healthy school meals for all. NOW is the time to contact your legislators and urge them to vote YES on HB 1475. Let’s keep the momentum going and make this a reality in North Dakota! northdakotamonitor.com/briefs/free-sc…

I’m grateful for the work Rep. @karlarosehanson and so many others put into exposing the devastating risks of this bill for women and doctors across North Dakota. Urge your lawmakers to vote NO on HB 1373. inforum.com/news/north-dak…

Spot on editorial from @gfherald endorsing healthy school meals for all students: “North Dakota can afford this, and making the meals free for all is fair for everybody. Lawmakers should make it happen in 2025.” grandforksherald.com/opinion/editor…

I look forward to working across the aisle to provide no-cost school meals for all students, increase our investment in childcare, and ensure more affordable housing in ND. These ideas all have broad bipartisan support. Let’s get them done in 2025!
