Meet the Heintzemans and the Raricks: two married couples serving together in the Minnesota Capitol. A rare sight that hasn't happened in nearly 170 years! 👇

Graduation rates are not the whole picture when we see students so far behind in proficiency. Proficiency rates tell us kids are less prepared for their next steps. This is an alarming trend, and we must keep it in my mind as we consider our final Education bills. #mnleg

#MNleg adjourned with a lot of work left to do. Working groups are tasked with determining final bill language, then a special session will be called. If deals are not reached, bills will be decided by the governor and a small group of leaders. This is a breakdown of the process.

As many people know, the legislature adjourned this week before we were able to get all of our budget issues taken care of. And the blame game is happening.

The regular legislative session has come to an end, and the announcement of a special session is imminent.
While a handful bills got passed by our constitutional adjournment day of May 19, many were left undone. Most of our largest budget bills are still left on the table.

As a follow-up to a question I asked on an MDH call last week, they got back to me on latest stats on how many Minnesotans who’ve died of COVID-19 had a significant underlying health condition. The current numbers are 94% yes; 4% unknown and 2% no. About 70% in long-term care.

MN needs law and order, which leaves space for healthy debate. It was enlightening to sit on the Senate committee investigating the government's response to violence in the Twin Cities. We have suggestions on how to do better in the future: senate.mn/committees/2019-20…

Wishing everyone a great start to the school year and an easy adjustment to this year's many changes!
Despite hybrid or distance learning, we will still see buses out and about in most areas. Keep our kids safe and pay attention to extended stop arms. Parents will thank you!

Wow. Senate DFL just voted against a Walz/POCI caucus agenda item. Word for word from @GovTimWalz press release and HF 92. How do they explain this? #mnleg

The first antibody test for coronavirus is great news. It's not a vaccine, but it's another testament to American innovation

Thank the American Farmer
The hardworking Minnesota farmers that feed the world won’t be taking any time off during the Coronavirus.
Senate Ag Chair @SenWestrom reminds us that we will survive because of the food produced by the American farmer. #mnleg
