@amyklobuchar We don’t need this level of wasteful spending. I live in rural MN and have had @Starlink so long that I was a beta tester. The only person who had to do any work to install it was me and the only person it cost any money was also me. It meets every need of my family of 4.
With Voices for Cooperative Power, you are able to extend your gratitude to a co-op that keeps your lights on. This week we are sharing Lorrie’s story. Will your story be next? https://t.co/HY2wD3ZD4Z
Today, nearly 900 electric co-ops are operating in the US, and their service territories cover more than half of the country’s landmass. They provide electricity to 42 million people, and about 25% of the households they serve have annual incomes of less than $35,000. Put simply, co-ops are an integral part of the American economy and an often-overlooked part of the American success story.

Sincere appreciation is due to Jenny and Tricia for tireless advocacy on issues vitally important to Minnesota’s rural electric cooperatives and our members. Thank you from @LCPCoop!!
The Minnesota legislative session ended early this morning! Shoutout to our government relations superstars, Tricia & Jenny, who advocated all session long for the 1.7 million Minnesotans served by electric co-ops. Their work will help lower bills for Minnesota families! #Mnleg
@28CJohnson You really put us in a bind yesterday on the 8th. In order to keep the pace of play, we decided it was in the best interest of the Club to break the rules. @slicknb
@MinnesotaDFL This is not the flex you think it is. It is not a success story that this many Minnesotans utilize Medicaid. 41% of our children? That should not be celebrated.
