96 year old Korean War veteran Earl Meyer put his life on the line in defense of our freedoms, and we are forever indebted to him. Earl earned this Purple Heart, and I'm so glad that we were able to work with his family and the Army to get him the recognition he deserves.

Great to be in @CityOfLakeville with @SenTinaSmith and @RepAngieCraig to announce federal investments in public safety. With this funding the city will build a facility to ensure their safety personnel have the space they need to receive training.

If you donate to a nonprofit, you should be able to deduct that from your taxes regardless of how you file. I’m cosponsoring @SenatorLankford & @ChrisCoons ’s bipartisan bill to create a new charitable giving deduction so anyone who donates to a nonprofit can get a tax benefit.

Our state’s health systems provide essential lifelines to so many communities. I spoke to @MNhospitals about how we can continue to support access to high-quality medical care and strengthen our healthcare workforce.

I called on Big Pharma to stop anticompetitive practices that protected inflated asthma inhaler prices. Now 3 of the 4 largest companies are capping patients' out-of-pocket costs for their inhalers at $35. This is a step forward in bringing down costs for essential medications.

We're less than 100 days out from the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris! As co-chair of the Senate Olympic and Paralympic Caucus with @SenatorBennet , it was great to meet with @USOPC_CEO Sarah Hirshland to discuss what's in store for this year's games. Rooting for @TeamUSA ! 🇺🇸

With the peak summer driving season approaching, we need to expand the use of E15 gasoline. Today’s announcement will do just that, but we must continue working to pass legislation ensuring drivers have year-round access to higher blends of ethanol.

I-94 is one of the most heavily used highways in our state but winter storms can impact driving conditions. With this federal grant, MnDOT will install snow fences to reduce snow traps along the highway and ensure I-94 remains safe for drivers.

AI-generated deepfakes have the potential to undermine our democracy. At this week’s Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, I spoke about the bipartisan bills I’m spearheading to ban deceptive deepfakes in our elections and bring transparency to voters.

Whether it’s the Arizona Supreme Court decision, Florida’s abortion ban, or Alabama's IVF ruling, we must push back on every attempt to undermine a woman’s right to make her own healthcare decisions. I won’t stop fighting until we restore the protections of Roe v. Wade.

Our country is forever indebted to the millions of women who took assembly line jobs, worked farm fields, or treated injured troops during WWII. Thank you @SenBobCasey for honoring our ‘Rosie the Riveters’ with Congressional Gold Medals.

Rosie the Riveter is an iconic figure in our Nation. Until today, our Nation’s Rosies did not get the recognition they deserved. I fought to right that wrong, and today we awarded these remarkable women, including PA's own Mae Krier, with the Congressional Gold Medal.

Now more than ever, we must continue to support law enforcement by providing them with the resources they need to protect our communities. My bipartisan COPS Reauthorization Act would do just that.

Local newspapers are going out of business while Big Tech makes record profits off news content. Now, Google is blocking readers from accessing local news. It’s long past time for Congress to pass my Journalism Competition and Preservation Act to support local newsrooms.

My former colleague and friend Senator Feinstein was a trailblazer and her mark on our country will never be forgotten. Thank you @SenAlexPadilla and @Senlaphonza for ensuring Senator Feinstein’s legacy lives on.

Senator Feinstein was a towering figure whose impact will be felt for generations to come. Renaming the Steuart Street Post Office after her is one of many ways we will continue to honor her trailblazing legacy.

Thank you to @SenAmyKlobuchar (D-MN), a crucial ally in the push for a new farm bill this year, for stopping by our legislative fly-in. MN is the 2nd largest pork-producing state in the country, & we appreciate her leadership for giving producers a seat at the table. #NPPCLAC2024

I’m committed to supporting @SenatorCardin & @ChrisVanHollen as they work around the clock to get the resources needed to rebuild the Francis Scott Key Bridge. In 2007, Congress came together to quickly help Minnesota rebuild the I-35W bridge. We need to do the same now.
