So long, and thanks for all the fish. 🧡
This coming Monday, Minnesota will recognize Juneteenth as an official state holiday for the first time! Tomorrow afternoon, visit the State Capitol grounds for the 1st Annual Juneteenth Jubilee, a gathering of culture, creativity, and community. #mnleg
All the coverage of Florida, Texas and other culture-war-waging red states might make you think our country is veering right. It’s time to pay more attention to the avalanche of progressive legislation that is the Minnesota miracle.

The #MNCare public option is one BIG step closer to becoming law! The #mnhouse just passed the health omnibus bill (#mnsenate passed it earlier today). Next stop: @GovTimWalz’s desk for signature!
Thanks again to @mhwiklund, @TinaLiebling + others for making this a reality.
With no votes to spare, Minnesota Democrats have implemented vast new social programs, enacted protections for groups threatened by far-right states and the Supreme Court, strengthened unions, poured money into schools, replaced infrastructure, and fed every Minnesota child.
Minnesota’s Democratic-Farmer-Labor part accompanied this monumental session with a six-vote margin in the House and a bare one-vote majority in the Senate. The scale of their achievement cannot be overstated.
I was told not to tweet this until the houses adjourned for fear of jinxing it, but the Minnesota legislature just completed what is probably the most productive session anywhere in the country since probably the New Deal. Sweeping bills and reforms across every area of life.
I saw my friends & elected representatives give up so much, persevere through such adversity, to deliver a once in a lifetime, generation-defining agenda for all Minnesotans.
I’m emotional and it isn’t easy to find all the words right now.
So here are two:
Thank you.

May the Fourth be with you! Been playing a lot of Jedi: Survivor - feels great to play and BD-1 is cute as ever. Also, if you haven't watched Andor, I think it's among the finest Star Wars media ever created. Just a few things to try beyond Mandalorian Season 3!
The Senate has just passed legislation banning conversion therapy for minors in Minnesota.
Thank you Senator Dibble for your years of work to make today happen!
The Senate has just passed the Reproductive Freedom Defense Act!
As extremists across the country criminalize health care, @Morrison4MN's bill protects patients and providers who seek that care within Minnesota.
As other states roll back the rights & freedoms of their residents, Minnesota is charting a different path.
Moments ago, the Senate DFL Majority passed the Trans Refuge Act — an historic step forward that sends a message to the Trans community that you are welcome in Minnesota.
The forces of hatred and bigotry are on the march in states across this country.
But let’s be clear: In Minnesota, that march stops at our borders.
When the Trans Refuge Act reaches my desk, I’ll be proud to sign it into law.
