minnesotans are leaving their “I VOTED” stickers on rocks at the grave of senator paul wellstone and his wife sheila at lakewood cemetery in minneapolis. they died nearly 24 years ago in a plane crash while he was running for reelection, such a devastating time in politics. they are missed so much

Remember, we bypassed the densely populated area so we could save $1B…and the project eventually overran its budget by ~$1B.
Could you imagine how insane this would've been if it had it's original subway route through the densest part of Minnesota

Donald Trump is trying to pit Minnesotans against each other. In Minnesota, we love our neighbors, and we stand with our immigrant communities—especially the Somali people who call this great state home. We aren't buying it.

Mr. President, Somali Minnesotans are your constituents, too. I will work with anyone to keep our neighborhoods safe. And I will stand up to anyone who puts our neighbors at risk. Your responsibility extends to all of us. My full statement: – at Minneapolis, MN
