Rising prices are hurting Minnesotans while delivering record profits for corporations. This is unacceptable. That’s why Senate DFLers like Senator @Lindsey_Port are fighting to ban price gouging and protect Minnesotans.

20 years ago, Minnesota lost a bright light too early. Today, we remember Senator Paul Wellstone and the impact he made on his community, and the good he did on behalf of all Minnesotans. We continue to keep Senator Wellstone and his family in our thoughts.

Providing visibility to LGBTQ Minnesotans is vital in our efforts to reduce bullying and advance policies that uplift our LGBTQ communities. On #SpiritDay, we remain firm in our commitment to stand up to right-wing attacks against LGBTQ youth.

On Coming Out Day, we recommit to safeguarding the progress made to protect LGBTQ+ Minnesotans – from meaningful access to reproductive health care to the freedom to marry who you love. As Governor, I will always stand with you in these fights.

MDE filed a claim seeking to recover more than half a million dollars in state funds used to defend the agency against Feeding Our Future’s dishonest legal attacks. MDE’s claim was filed in a Dakota County District Court action instituted by Attorney General Keith Ellison.

Every Senate DFLer fought to lower costs for Minnesota families. Republicans blocked it.

Inflation numbers still soaring. Food prices rising at rates not seen in 40+ years. And yet House Democrats held the tax cut bill hostage at the end of session.
