[Vote Conley @voteconley]

Excited to announce the first labor endorsement for my re-election campaign! The incredible public servants of @HCAPE_UNION save lives everyday & respond to the unthinkable. I am grateful for their trust and partnership. Thank you for your unwavering dedication to our residents.

[HCAPE @HCAPE_UNION]

Our hearts are with the victims & families after today’s tragic shooting at Annunciation Catholic Church, especially those who lost their child today. We honor the courage & compassion of all responders, ECC staff, and hospital teams who faced the unimaginable and saved lives.

Pennsylvania - State representative to introduce bill elevating penalties for people who attack EMS, firefighters... https://t.co/LUL14y5dWH

[Elliott Engen @elliottengenMN]

It’s time we protect those who protect us.

Today, my bill to increase penalties for criminals who assault First Responders goes into effect.

[Minnesota Nurses @mnnurses]

The @MNHospital Association urges illness prevention but ignores how hospital administrators add to the crisis. Facility-wide understaffing leaves patients stuck in EDs, creates unsafe conditions for nurses & delays critical care. @StarTribune #PatientsBeforeProfits #USHealthcare

[Saint Paul Professional Firefighters Local 21 @L21_stpaulfire]

IAFF Local 21 Firefighter/Paramedic Jason Woodbury we will never forget.
Rest in Peace brother

[Edward A. Kelly @IAFFPresident]

It’s time to see who stands with #firefighters, teachers, cops, and other public service workers and who doesn’t. It’s time to repeal the WEP/GPO.

Be sure to call your US Senator and ask them to vote in favor of all upcoming floor votes on this bill!

BREAKING: In the pouring rain on Capitol Hill, @senschumer promised to bring the bill that will repeal GPO and WEP to a vote.

It’s time to pass the Social Security Fairness Act!

[Pete Stauber @RepPeteStauber]

I recently had the chance to meet with the @MNPoliceAssn to discuss the importance of the Social Security Fairness Act, which will ensure public servants like police officers remain eligible for their full Social Security benefits. The House passed this critical legislation with my support, and now the Senate must act!

[Grant Hauschild @grant_hauschild]

Good news! The EMS Rural Ambulance Aid Legislation I authored will be distributing funds this month to impacted communities, including Ely which will receive the 4th highest amount in the state! @elyecho

[Eden Prairie FD @EdenPrairieFD]

Tonight Asst Chief Justin Johnson, Capt Matt Worthington, and Firefighters Joshua Privette and Michael Do, were awarded the EPFD's highest distinction, the Award of Honor, for saving the life of an infant who was trapped in a burning home earlier this year.🏅 🚒

[HCAPE @HCAPE_UNION]

We are proud to endorse @MyersVote. He has been an advocate for our members at the legislature. It is clear that he understands the challenges that public safety, frontline healthcare workers and unions face. Andrew has been a moderate voice, supporting common sense solutions

[HCAPE @HCAPE_UNION]

Today we honor the memory of Dale Eidsvig. Dale was killed in the line of duty at @hennepinems on October 29th, 1972.

52 years, gone but not forgotten.

[HCAPE @HCAPE_UNION]

@HennepinHC CEO Jennifer DeCubellis must be a fan of Alanis Morissette’s early work. She is constantly fighting with @Hennepin county commissioners and denying the trust of patients and voters. Not to mention her decisions that have destroyed the trust of frontline workers!
