Testifying for the first time with @AARPMN this morning before the Senate Health and Human Services Committee to ask lawmakers to help hungry seniors in Minnesota.

SF 1110 lifts the minimum monthly SNAP benefit from $23 a month to $50. This is the right thing to do. #mnleg

I could not be more proud of this group. They’ve lost family. They’re caregivers. They’re researchers. And they’re South Dakotans who believe their story can and will make a difference.

In our otherwise divided nation, Alzheimer’s is still a tie that binds. #ENDALZ 💜

A woman next to me at the hotel coffee this morn turned to me and said, “You look beautiful today btw.”
Women-
Talk to other women.
Tell other women nice things.
Say things to other women that would make you smile if someone said them to you.
It’s that simple.
And that powerful.

Dear Fellow Women who came of age during the 80s Rock Era (thanks be to God hallelujah amen btw),
Have we decided what we’re doing about the fact that all fall fashion is pointing to cropped?

Hanging out with a group of second graders today at a nearby bible camp.
Lunch was served.
Taco Tuesday.
One of the tikes referred to his sour cream as “Taco Frosting”.
AND THIS SHALL NOW BE ITS NAME FOREVERMORE.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but new life can arise out of the breaking.

Except Chuck E. Cheese.
That rat won’t let go.
EVER.
Save your efforts.
They are an exercise in futility.

Today, an American who likely worked and paid taxes for 50+ years, will find out they have Alzheimer's.

This story somehow gets worse when they learn new treatments can slow the disease, but are being held just out of reach by @CMSGov.

That's why I'm pushing for #AccessNow.

[Thomas Elness @thomas_elness]

It's unfathomable to me that we would go 117 years without an Alzheimer’s treatment that can slow the progression of the disease, finally have an FDA-approved treatment, and then block access to this kind of treatment for the first time ever.

I got #Wordle in two today.
Please don’t try and stop me.

So proud of our son @thomas_elness for using his voice to speak up!

There are treatments that can slow the effects of Alzheimer’s disease, but they still remain the only FDA-approved treatments not to be covered by Medicare. https://t.co/BOqygCsvNH

Made ya grin.

Amen.

Did you see the top story on @dakotanews_now tonight? 📺

South Dakota families impacted by Alzheimer’s need #AccessNow to FDA-approved Alzheimer’s treatments.

Join us in this fight. 👇
