Today, members of my staff were in attendance for a bison release at Spring Lake Park Reserve Bison Prairie. It’s amazing to see native biodiversity reintroduced to the land and the great efforts of the Dakota County Park System! https://t.co/ffOFDMtCMw
A 4-year college degree isn’t for everyone. In fact our own son Josh declined that route to become a machinist. That’s why I’ve fought to support trade and technical education and to secure funding for @DCTC. A good-paying job does not have to come with a ton of student debt. https://t.co/byKCg8O48G
During my second term, I: ✅Passed my bill to cap insulin copays for seniors on Medicare ✅Helped close the ACA “Family Glitch” ✅Passed a bill to fund our police departments ✅Ranked in the top 3% most bipartisan members of Congress And I'm ready to build on that progress.
Last year, we passed the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to: Provide affordable internet to 860,000 MN households Make 661 bridges and 4,980 miles of highway safer for MN drivers Improve & expand MN public transit But according to @KistnerCongress, it’s “wasteful.”
RT @mattdelong: Cook Political Report continues to list four U.S. House races in Minnesota as toss-ups: Two open seats currently held by Democrats (#MN01 and #MN08) and two held by Republicans seeking re-election (#MN02 and #MN03) https://t.co/7CwLQW7zJX
@KistnerCongress has been trying his hardest to position himself as the boy next door. Then he takes campaign money from someone who literally argued against women having the right to vote. We cannot trust him to defend our rights in Congress. https://t.co/Am2wrsQwyk
We’re with the Minneapolis Regional Labor Federation as they get ready to knock some doors this morning – a big thank you to everyone who brought their organizing energy today! https://t.co/JYT7VFQ7Y1
First up, Woodbury Thanks to everyone who joined us today to make sure voters know what is at stake this election! https://t.co/T3zNhihDNc
Great to see the Operating Engineers Pathway program in action today in Rosemount and meet the next generation of workers right here in #MN02. Thanks to IOUE Local 49 and @amesconstrn for a great visit. https://t.co/BjNVlW344t
Spent the afternoon with students at @StOlaf and @Carleton to hear about why they’re voting in November. Thank you for welcoming me back to campus! https://t.co/spomnzoed6
You never know who you’ll run into in West St. Paul! So great to see @reprickhansen and Emily, the owner of @AmoreWsp – thank you for the coffee. https://t.co/3qTkP6Vxmm
People all across #MN02 rely on broadband to make a living, get an education and access telehealth. I’m proud to have passed the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, which will provide billions in broadband funding to help keep MN communities connected. https://t.co/vjfUrDPEhK
Excited for Booya Day in South St. Paul this Saturday! See you there, @reprickhansen. QT @reprickhansen: Reminder: World Championship Booya Cookoff this Saturday, October 1. At least 10 teams cooking ✅🇺🇸. See you Satur… https://t.co/jom76Euyf8)
The GOP’s national abortion ban will ban most abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy and criminalize doctors who provide abortion care in all 50 states, including Minnesota. And @KistnerCongress has already pledged to support additional abortion restrictions if he is elected.
We’ve got Irish music, beer and dancing right here in #MN02!. The Halfway to St. Paddy’s Day festival in Kilkenny this weekend was an absolute blast. https://t.co/T4iMYBMgDB
@MNFarmBureau sure puts out a good breakfast spread! Thanks for having me at Breakfast on the Farm today. It’s my honor to serve on the House Ag Committee and fight for Minnesota’s family farmers. https://t.co/SjTocRJ6WE
It was great to see so many volunteers ready to knock doors in Cottage Grove today with the St. Paul Regional Labor Federation! Thank you for everything you do. https://t.co/zhkIVeCcqn
@LeaderSchumer No one should be forced to ration or go without a life-sustaining drug like insulin due to the cost.
Thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act, insulin copays will soon be capped at $35/month for folks on Medicare. Now I’m calling on @LeaderSchumer to finish what the House started and bring up a vote to cap insulin copays at $35 for all types of insurance. https://t.co/HWVkRjQPPb
Stopped by the @MNDFL booth to talk to voters about what’s at stake in this year’s election and to thank all the incredible volunteers who are helping us get out the vote. https://t.co/TBAIW5v0G5
Since the beginning of the pandemic my team has been able to secure more than $6 million in emergency funding for small business in MN02. If you are a small business owner who needs help accessing SBA services you can contact my Burnsville Office at: (651) 846-2120 https://t.co/pOY2q69dSo
.@KistnerCongress is lying again. The Inflation Reduction Act empowers the IRS to go after billionaires who don't pay their fair share. The only people who are up in arms about this are billionaires and the candidates their super PACs are funding. https://t.co/CjaNE5nsL8 QT @KistnerCongress: Biden and @AngieCraigMN’s army of 87,000 IRS agents will frivolously audit the middle class.

Supporting our family farmers is key to keeping Minnesota on track. It’s always great to meet with family farmers in #MN02 to hear what Congress can do to ensure our farmers have the resources they need to thrive. https://t.co/ZUhMg0TBur
The Ag economies of Ukraine and the United States are deeply intertwined. Supporting the industries that keep Ukranians and Americans fed and clothed is part of why efforts to defend Ukraine will continue to get my support https://t.co/Uwq3xJreso
With the Senate’s vote to pass the Inflation Reduction Act we are one step closer to providing working families with relief from the rising costs of health care & prescription drugs. I look forward to passing this bill when it comes to the House floor. https://t.co/mkNvxBtUSY

Great to see that @UHC ending out-of-pocket costs for insulin and other life-sustaining drugs. Now let’s make sure we limit the cost of insulin for more Minnesotans. It’s time for the Senate to act on insulin. https://t.co/vOzpLGsepe
Minnesota is home to some of the best among us – including folks like Ed! It was an honor to recognize Ed and the decades he spent with @NationalFAA educating our next generation of leaders in agriculture. Thank you for everything, Ed! https://t.co/1KRSdmTQrW
I am thrilled to report that my casework team and I have now returned more than $2 million to constituents across #MN02! It’s always a great day when we help our constituents get back their hard-earned dollars. https://t.co/7ysAty1zZJ
Understanding how to support small businesses comes from speaking to small business owners directly. It was great to meet with River Heights Chamber President, Colleen Roth and chat today with the owners of Mallard’s Reasaurant to hear their concerns as small business owners. https://t.co/xfcYBoN3uo
We need to use every tool at our disposal to lower prices at the pump. Glad to see @POTUS joining my call to enact a temporary gas tax holiday which could lower pieces by nearly 50 cents per gallon in Minnesota. https://t.co/ZLiIpOLsDx
Made my first Minnesota Lynx game of the season this week! Nice photobomb @cgreene2027 https://t.co/a5ki9cih5f
Happening today! My town hall on prescription drug pricing starts at noon! If you would like to join, you can dial in at 833-364-147. Talk to you soon!
Public works professionals keep our communities clean, safe and functional – and rarely get the recognition they deserve. Glad to join @RepDinaTitus & @RepBrianFitzpatrick in acknowledging those workers by officially declaring #NationalPublicWorksWeek. https://t.co/bLBvOZbyOx https://t.co/A2azDhMZfY
Good. I’ll hold you to that @LeaderSchumer. Americans should be able to trust that their representatives are working for them, not their portfolios. https://t.co/jkispRWxc1

Just a reminder that 193 Republicans voted against insulin price caps and they’re all on the ballot in six months. https://t.co/0hvnIdQjMy
Today is the day! Today, @HouseAdm_Dems is finally holding a hearing to consider banning Members of Congress from owning individual stocks while in office. This is long-overdue – but an important step in the right direction! https://t.co/17cG2MgS4Y
Today at an @EnergyCommerce hearing I got ask oil execs the exact question so many Americans are asking: If the price of oil is going down, then why the hell are gas prices so high? We need to hold big oil accountable. https://t.co/EuzxrwuOz1
Especially when working families across the country are cutting costs and tightening their belts, Members of Congress shouldn’t be using taxpayer funds to get a better seat. https://t.co/x2qZIQoO2U

Members of Congress will receive an unclassified bi-partisan briefing on the Russian invasion of Ukraine tonight and a classified briefing next week. sovereign country by force.
We should continue to coordinate closely with countries around the world to evaluate a collective release from the Strategic Petroleum Reserves for major energy consumers.
Our thoughts are with the Ukrainian people defending their young Democracy today - and with the anti-war Russian protestors bravely demonstrating for an end to Vladimir Putin's reckless actions.
Please join me on Facebook tonight at 6:00pm CST for my February Town Hall! I’m looking forward to hearing from you. If you have any questions that you would like me to answer during the live stream you can submit them here: https://t.co/az9chSF83K
That's why, today, I am launching the IRS reform initiative to make sure the IRS is serving Minnesotans the way they deserve. Stay tuned for more updates!
Today I joined my colleagues on @HouseAgDems for a full committee hearing to review rural economic priorities with USDA @SecVilsak. I pushed for rural broadband, biofuels to help reduce carbon emissions and drought relief for family farmers. https://t.co/v3n1HefXnP
