.@RepFinstad has been a champion for manufacturers, helping deliver the most pro-growth, pro-manufacturing tax reforms in generations. Modernizing our permitting system will unleash the full potential of historic tax reform, bring more energy projects online, strengthen reliability and lower costs for manufacturers and families alike.
Yesterday’s roundtable and tour of Faribault Woolen Mill Co. allowed local manufacturers to highlight Working Families Tax Cuts wins for Minnesota manufacturers, including no tax on overtime and provisions credited with saving over 100,000 jobs statewide. We also discussed the need for permitting reform to strengthen our business climate. Thank you to Jay Timmons and @ShopFloorNAM for organizing the event, and to Ross Widmoyer and the Faribault Mill team for the tour!

MORE WINNING FOR AMERICA 🇺🇸 @USDOT is working AROUND THE CLOCK to ensure American infrastructure is second to none SHOUTOUT to @RepFinstad for partnering with us to get this project approved ⬇️
Amazing news for Red Wing! I advocated for this project and expressed my support to @SecDuffy earlier this year, and I’m excited to see federal dollars make their way to the First District. Red Wing Port Authority and Red Wing Grain just received over $10 million from the Maritime Administration’s Port Infrastructure Development Program, funding that will help reconstruct critical barge infrastructure to increase loading speeds for corn and soybeans. transportation.gov/briefing-…

Lawmakers like @RepFinstad voted for the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026 in Washington, but it was shaped by dozens of listening sessions out in the field like this one. It's time for farmers, ranchers, and rural communities to have their voices heard. It's time to get the farm bill across the finish line.
Last week, the Runge family and @MNFarmBureau hosted an agricultural stakeholder listening session with leaders in our ag community and the next generation of farmers to discuss the issues impacting Watonwan, Blue Earth, and Brown Counties. When helping my @HouseAgGOP colleagues write the House-passed Farm Bill, listening sessions like these directly shaped our policies. Thank you to everyone who could join us and provide valuable insights into the issues affecting our farmers!

Blue states like Minnesota are refusing to investigate fraud and protect Americans’ hard-earned tax dollars. That’s exactly why the Trump administration created an aggressive @WHFraudTF and @DOJFraudDiv to go after fraudsters, prosecute criminals, and recover BILLIONS in stolen taxpayer funds. The gravy train is over. Republicans won’t rest until EVERY fraudster is held accountable.

Rural communities thrive when they have access to hospitals, childcare and other essential facilities. @CompeerFinance recently hosted a roundtable with @HouseAgGOP Chairman @CongressmanGT, Minnesota Reps. @RepFinstad and @RepFischbach, and community leaders to highlight how partnerships among Farm Credit, local lenders and @usdaRD can help finance these critical community facilities in rural Minnesota. The Investing in Rural America Act, a vital component of the House-passed Farm Bill, unlocks critical resources for Farm Credit to modernize and build essential rural facilities. Through strong partnerships with local banks and credit unions, this legislation ensures rural families gain direct access to the improved infrastructure, healthcare and essential services they deserve. Farm Credit is committed to supporting policies that revitalize rural communities and champion the hard-working Americans who depend on them.

Thank you to the Minnesota Corn Growers for hosting @SecRollins, @RepFinstad, Vice Chair of the House Agriculture Committee @AustinScottGA08, and me this morning at this year’s Farm Fest for the first of many newly announced USDA listening sessions!

🚨Today at Minnesota Farmfest, I announced that @USDA will hold listening sessions nationwide as we develop our new Data Modernization Plan.      Farmers rely on USDA reports to make critical decisions. But declining survey participation has weakened producer confidence in the data.      The farmers who rely on these reports deserve a direct voice in building what comes next. Stay tuned for more! @RepFischbach @RepFinstad

Every dollar that goes to waste is a dollar that NEVER reaches Main Street. MUST WATCH: @RepFinstad and Mr. Fitzpatrick break down how @SBAgov's systems upgrade is rooting out fraud, waste, and abuse—and delivering better accountability.

We are living on the shoulders of giants, and it is our calling to make sure this great American experiment lasts another 250 years. The choice has never been clearer: common sense or crazy. Republicans chose common sense, and America is winning again because of it. 🇺🇸
