I am stepping down from the MN Senate, but I can't do that without expressing my gratitude. Thank you to my family, friends, & constituents who shared the issues they care about & trusted me to work on their behalf. It's been a true honor to serve MN & the community I grew up in.

As we hold the Hoffmans & Hortman family in our hearts, last weekend's horrific events appear tied to abortion & people who staunchly supported those rights, myself included. Even as we face political violence, I will persist as a vocal supporter of reproductive rights for all.

Juneteenth reminds us that freedom is never given — it is claimed, defended, and carried forward by each generation.

As our communities grieve in the wake of targeted political violence, we reflect on the legacy of emancipation and the civil rights movement and recommit to this work to carry on the memory of all who have fought for justice.

Thank you to everyone who has reached out to check on me and the boys. We are safe, but I'm shaken. I'm devestated by the loss of Speaker Hortman and her husband and the senseless violence against Sen. Hoffman and his wife. Politics should not be like this.

I connected with kids & seniors today! At Newport Head Start Flag Day event, we discussed free lunches for kids & our new inclusive state flag. When I met w/ seniors, I shared about great programs: grants for homeless elder prevention, senior nutrition, food bank & shelf funding.

A moving #MemorialDay2025 ceremony at the St. Cloud VA this a.m., hosted by the St. Cloud area METROVETS. I was seated next to a Gold Star family, & their loss was unimaginable. Afterwards, it was nice to connect w/other veteran advocates (photo with MN DAV Commander Walker). 🇺🇸

I love this time of year! The significance of signing HS graduation letters 🎓while voting YES to fund teacher pensions & unemployment insurance for our school’s hourly workers is not lost on me. Thank you to everyone who helps our children succeed & thrive!

Thank you to the Hmong community for again inviting me out to help honor Hmong SGU Remembrance Day (May 14). It was a moving and lovely event, under beautiful sunshine (vs. rain 2 yrs ago). This year was extra special, celebrating 50yrs since Hmong resettlement in the U.S.

Today I met with a new Woodbury resident who is also an advocate for Habitat for Humanity. We agreed on the need for more affordable housing in MN, and she shared concerns about the rising cost of homeowners insurance.

The MN Senate just passed the Legacy Appropriation Omnibus. This bill funds & supports some of the true gems of MN: The Clean Water Fund, Zoos, MPR, TPT, The Science Museum, childrens museums, parks & trails, much more. I'm so glad we invest in things to make our state great!

Love seeing our senior advocates coming out to the Capitol to have their voices heard, focusing on saving Social Security, Medicaid/Medicare, and Veterans Health Care.

Three Rivers Park District does amazing advocacy & have visited the Capitol for years. I just HAD to snuggle a sweet baby lamb (who started falling asleep in my arms) while learning about their excellent programs of inclusivity, increasing access to parks for all, and education.

The MN Senate just passed the Job & Labor bill today with bipartisan provisions! It includes supporting workers with stronger mandatory break laws: giving clearer language & specific time frames for breaks required. This adds more transparency between employers and workers.
