BIG NEWS: Today, we submitted over 5,000 signatures and officially filed to get on the ballot! Most politicians just pay a filing fee to get on the ballot. But to me, and to a lot of folks across southern Minnesota, $300 is a lot of money. So we chose the grassroots path instead:

The economy didn't just lose 92,000 jobs last month, but it did even worse than expected. We need a government that actually creates new jobs and opportunities, rather than tariffs and wars that raise costs for all of us.

I had a great time speaking with folks in Blue Earth and Nicollet counties last week about making life affordable and rebuilding the American Dream. We’ve got work to do!

Minnesota had more farm bankruptcies than any other state during the first three months of this year. Things were already tough for our farmers, and now reckless tariffs and the Iran War are making it worse. It's time we send someone to Congress who will fight for our farmers, not against them.

One year ago today, we launched our campaign to bring a voice for working people back to Congress. From day one, we chose to do things a different way: actually meeting with voters, not taking money from corporations, and collecting signatures to get on the ballot.

Just finished my 20th year in the classroom and it's a bittersweet moment. Looking forward to all the great things our students will go on to accomplish, and I'm also excited to spend the summer holding town halls and sharing how we're going to make life cheaper and easier for our working families.

To fix our broken politics, we need to stop thinking it’s Red Team versus Blue Team, and start realizing it’s the elites versus the rest of us. Thanks to everyone who came to our Mankato Meet & Greet earlier this week so we could chat about how we can solve problems for southern Minnesota together.

I grew up with a dad who was a garbageman, a mom who was a meter reader, and 10 siblings. It was great to get to share my story in New Ulm this weekend. Thank you for having me!

I was happy to see the Minnesota Farm Bureau win an award recently for its great new partnership that gives medical students hands-on experience in our rural communities. It's a great program and exactly the kind of investment that we need to increase access to healthcare in southern Minnesota.

Corporate consolidation in agriculture is squeezing out our family farmers. If we want to protect the southern Minnesota way of life, we need to enforce our laws that ensure competitive markets, so farmers can buy inputs at a fair price and sell products on a level playing field.

Trump is “increasingly desperate” because he is not in a “dominant position” and “cannot dictate terms,” while “the Iranians are not going to accept a ceasefire that puts them in the same position as Lebanon and Gaza,” says @tparsi.bsky.social of the Quincy Institute.

The court that almost overturned votes for Trump looks very different now.

In states like Alabama and Tennessee, Trump and his cronies are rigging congressional maps to silence minority voters. This fight isn’t about party—it’s about right versus wrong. We must reject partisan gerrymandering, demand fair maps, and secure equal representation for every American.
