A bald eagle stopped by Andover Fire Department’s 9/11 memorial service in Minnesota today. I can’t think of a better way to honor the firefighters who responded to the scene 17 years ago today. https://t.co/isrPdtLmrs

Duluth Navy Veteran David Wheat—who was held captive during the Vietnam War w/ @SenJohnMcCain & recalls using hand-signals to communicate—shared a tribute to John. Immensely grateful for our nation’s veterans, like John & David, for their honorable service.https://t.co/giBw4yCAtN

There’s so much to love about #MNStateFair, and food’s a big part of it. Yesterday I enjoyed a BLT sandwich made by @MNFarmersUnion and @BirchwoodCafe. The ingredients were sourced from Minnesota farms, and it was delicious. #OnlyInMN https://t.co/isgBYwqDKc

The #1 thing I hear Minnesotans talking about is the cost of health care—especially the cost of Rx drugs. And it’s no wonder: people in America have to spend a lot of $$$ on Rx drugs. #ICYMI, I’ll seen be introducing a bill to bring those costs down. https://t.co/j6ayAn5pxv

Sitting down to talk with students always leaves me feeling inspired. And that’s exactly how I felt yesterday after meeting with students from @MNYouthCouncil. https://t.co/VyXRs3uCP2 https://t.co/82hEGxzpj7

Pork chop on a stick—ever tried it? It’s a @MNFarmfest classic. I got one while talking to @MNFFA members. Some of my favorite Ag meetings in Washington are when I meet with these young farmers, so it was fun to see them in Minnesota. https://t.co/D3TODJ25RN

Moose—our 16 week-old lab—was all smiles on this walk. He's growing so fast! https://t.co/VxNYeuePI8

Another upsetting story about the consequences of the Trump Admin's cruel separation of families. I've signed onto a bill to immediately reunify all families—The REUNITE Act—intro'd by @SenatorKamalaHarris, @SenJeffMerkley, @SenCortezMasto. https://t.co/7JF4WIo5WU

How about we get an honest answer about what happened in the first meeting with Vladimir Putin before the President schedules another meeting with the leader of a hostile foreign power who tried to undermine our democracy?https://t.co/0zTK89i9ty QT @ABC: Sec.

Alarming # of Native women & men endure sexual violence. Among those almost all—96% of women, 89% of men—were victimized by a non-Indian offender. Yet few offenders face prosecution for these crimes. Intro'd a bill to help tribes seek justice for survivors.https://t.co/ol3DHCX3GK

.@MooreMaya's on the cover of @SLAMonline —a first for a woman in 20 yrs. As a two-time #OlympicChampion, a two-time @NCAA champion & four-time #WNBA champion, she's a role model for Minnesotans—especially young women & girls—who have their own aspirations.https://t.co/e5Ciz6Hyky

Last week I saw first-hand just how hard communities in SW Minnesota were hit by recent flooding. If you’re a farmer who was impacted, you may qualify for zero interest loans from @MNagriculture to cover flood clean-up, repare, and replacement costs. #MNAg https://t.co/au3YhHWsGE

And thank you, @HungerSoultions, for joining me! #FarmBill programs that help fight hunger are of vital importance. The data backs this up.

End of May: President says Rx drug companies will make “voluntary, massive drops in prices” in 2 weeks. Early June: None of the 10 major pharmaceutical companies @SenWarren & I reached out to provide meaningful specifics* on a plan to lower Rx drug pr

Facilitating conversations about mental health is an important step toward eliminating the stigma that prevents too many, incl. students, from seeking care. I intro’d a bill to create a nat’l commission to help address mental health concerns students face

"The most important thing is that this investigation is not interfered with… We know that there was interference in our election in 2016 & the purpose of this investigation is to get to the bottom of that. What happened? How did it happen?" https://t.

Tomorrow morning at approx. 6:30 am CT I’ll be talking about the latest in Washington on @MSNBC’s @MorningJoe. Hope you’ll tune in.

Food, #mnag, and technology: that’s what I recently discussed with @LandOLakesInc board members and farmers. Thanks for sharing your #FarmBill priorities, and for highlighting the important role #broadband plays in supporting rural farmers and agribusines

I plan to push Minnesota #FarmBill priorities after hearing from as many Minnesotans as possible. If you’d like to share your Minnesota perspective on the Farm Bill, I’d love to hear from you. Give my team a call at 202-224-5641 or email ag@smith.senate.g

Over the weekend, Sun Country Airlines effectively abandoned hundreds of travelers who were trying to fly back to MN—some of whom are still stranded. They’ve had to rebook themselves & spend hundreds, or even thousands, to get home. Immediately, I too

I led the charge pressing @USDOT to make sure that our airline cancellation policies prevent this from happening again. But Sun Country stranded its customers, and they have to make things right. https://t.co/dHaX4Bv0ZX

So today, I'm making a second push. I asked the CEO of Sun Country to explain what happened—I want to hear directly from the airline. And so do the families who were stranded in a foreign country and left to fend for themselves to get home. https://t.co/i

The win gave head coach Scott Sandelin his second #NCAA title as coach of the Bulldogs. Thanks for such a great season and an exciting tournament. You've made your school, the city of Duluth, and all of Minnesota proud.

Thanks, @BurnsvilleHS, for a great visit, and for helping students prepare to be career ready through your Pathways Program. This visit inspired me to keep pushing for job-training partnerships between schools and businesses.

During the last two weeks, I’ve been meeting with communities that are at the forefront of workforce development to help me ensure that the workforce legislation I introduce reflects both the needs of and successes pioneered by Minnesota.

Today I visited Burnsville High School’s Pathways Program, which helps students prepare to be career ready by offering students the opportunity to explore different career pathways that suit their interests.

.@BurnsvilleHS partners w/ businesses to help make the program happen. Job training partnerships btwn schools & local businesses are great—they can help businesses find workers w/ the skills they need, & help students land good paying jobs.

Wishing best of luck to @UMDBulldogs Men’s Hockey team as they take on Ohio State in the first game of the #FrozenFour at the @XcelEnergyCtr in St. Paul on Thursday. https://t.co/aSFwZ8UQ1F

In 2011, UMD made the #StateOfHockey proud when they won the College Hockey title with an exciting overtime win in the final #FrozenFour game, and last year they finished second. Let’s go Bulldogs!
