I’ve decided not to run for re-election to the Senate in 2026. This job has been the honor of a lifetime. For the rest of my term, I’ll work as hard as I can for Minnesotans and our country. Thank you so much, Minnesota.

Nothing has changed. Minneapolis is still suffering — new leadership won’t change that. Congress can. Not a dollar to DHS or ICE until then.

It's becoming nearly impossible for working people to keep a roof over their head. It’s time for Congress to respond with a plan that matches the scale of the problem. That’s why Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and I introduced the Homes Act.

It’s been brought to my attention that Republicans actually stole their whole health care plan from the show

You sure about that?

Concerningly good, Governor Tim Walz.

A South Dakota woman had to take an ambulance to Minnesota just to obtain a potentially *life-saving* abortion. She suffered because Republicans packed the Supreme Court with justices who would overturn Roe. What do they want next? A national abortion ban.

“Do you think people who take anti-depressants are dangerous?" The answer is no. Another of RFK Jr’s fringe ideas. The HHS Secretary should be fighting the stigma around mental health not fanning the flames of conspiracy theories.

DHS investigating itself is outrageous and clearly an attempt to cover up what actually happened.

I’m angry about Musk’s power grab too. I hear you. I see your letters and hear your calls. I’m putting pressure on Republicans and you should be too. We’re going to use every tool in our toolbox to organize and fight this. More to come — stay tuned.

The Senate is filled with former Members of Congress, Governors, Lt. Governors… all fine and honorable professions. But there aren’t many who came here as organizers like @SenLaphonza did. Laphonza, it’s been an honor to serve with you. I'm excited to see what you do next.

Hope is an act of will, not an article of faith. Sherrod Brown inspired me and other Senators to have hope and to fight for working people like the woman I met in Duluth all those years ago. Thank you, my friend with the gravelly voice. Can’t wait to see what you do next.

We aren’t asking for the moon - we’re asking to open the federal government AND help Americans see their doctor.

Instead of talking about making housing cheaper or how we can lower costs and make lives more affordable, we're talking about this damn bill again. It's disrespectful. Women in these unfathomable circumstances deserve the freedom to make the best decision for themselves.
