Spending on administration is up 38% since 2013. MSCF faculty? Only 5%. This isn’t a funding issue—it’s a priorities issue. Invest in the people who teach Minnesota’s workforce. #FundFaculty #MSCFStrong #mnleg @MinnStateEdu

Minnesota State has already spent $300 million with millions still to come for the Workday system. The result? Missed paychecks, benefit disruption, confusion, and added burdens on the people educating Minnesota’s future workforce. @MinnStateEdu #mnleg #mscfstrong

Our colleges train Minnesota’s future workforce and fuel the state’s economy. Strong faculty = strong communities. A fair contract isn’t unreasonable—it’s essential. @MinnesotaState #mnleg #mscfstrong

I didn't finish paying off my student loans until my second year as Lieutenant Governor of Minnesota. We have to invest in making college truly affordable -- so kids like Corbin can live in the communities they love.
