This moment - it’s administration, it’s economy, it’s politics - are excruciating for all of us. We deserve an economy of care, that sees those who move the world with every second and third shift. Most of us know what it takes to care for our families, but we need a society that cares for all.

To all the kids who grew up needing a little help, a little push to be who we are. I’m forever thankful to my mom for asking for the help she needed, for our community who listened to the call, and to a people who believe all of us are worth the investment. We need Senators who believe it, too.

A big win for the Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska and Tribal sovereignty! Today, the Fourth Circuit confirmed Winnebago’s right under NAGPRA to seek the return of its children buried at the Carlisle Indian School Cemetery. Read more: buff.ly/gVWgXQX

I joined Tommy on @podsaveamerica.crooked.com to talk about my race for US Senate, what Minnesota’s been through, and our path forward as a party. I hope you’ll give it a listen: youtu.be/WJcynkrbSa8?...

Democrats have a very narrow path to winning the Senate. And it involves electing the first Alaska Native woman to the body.

NEW: Voters support a wide range of policies that would put a check on ICE abuses. These include body cameras, oversight & independent investigations, and limits to raids, masks, and ICE funding. www.dataforprogress.org/blog/2025/1/...

Abolishing ICE: YouGov released an updated poll after the murder of Alex Pretti this weekend. Nationally, net +5pp of Americans believe we should abolish ICE for the first time. Speaking up works. Protesting works. Calling your senators and pressuring them to stand up, works. Keep going ya'll.

"ICE will leave Minnesota if you hand over your voter rolls" tells you everything you need to know. This was never about immigration or fraud. It was always about rigging elections.

No President and no administration is above our country’s Constitution, and no one in this country is without rights.  Support your community by staying peaceful and prepared. Report federal agent misconduct to: oag.ca.gov/ReportMisconduct

While Minnesota is reeling from now *multiple* murders at the hands of the federal agents Donald Trump deployed, emboldened, and provided a license-to-kill, his response is this:

Minnesota deserves strong leadership. When state violence goes unchecked, we expect our leaders to step up and lead the charge. State leadership is more important than ever, and Minnesota has among the best. ICE needs to get the hell out of Minnesota.

60 CEOs with the MN Chamber signed an open letter calling for "immediate deescalation." Apparently, it took more than one murder to catch the attention of business leaders. Words are no longer enough: if you want change, demand it with your lobbying $$$ and campaign contributions.

One thing that has brought me tremendous hope in the past week, despite the horror of ICE's kidnapping and murders, is the response of everyday people who have finally said that 'enough is enough'. In moments of crisis, we rise up to protect each other. Always. ictnews.org/news/full-ci...

My deepest condolences are with the family of Alex Pretti, and everyone who knew and loved him. Enough is enough. They are killing us in the streets. The Senate cannot send one more penny to ICE.

No justice, no peace.

After working with thousands of candidates over the years, I can assure you: most of the stuff put out by think tanks or research firms intended for ~Dems running for office~ never actually gets to those candidates. Something to keep in mind as you observe the intrafactional BS!

Today, Deb Haaland (@debhaalandnm.bsky.social), Laguna Pueblo, fmr. Sec. of Interior & current candidate for New Mexico Governor, released her plan for education. New Mexico has been ranked last in education for NINE straight years: it's time for a new approach. debhaaland.com/debsplan/

This morning, former Congresswoman @marypeltola.com - the first Alaska Native leader to serve in the U.S. Congress - announced her run for U.S. Senate. This is a historic announcement. In 2026, we'll have three top of ticket races where Native women will make history. ⬇️

Congresswoman Mary Peltola, the first Alaska Native woman to represent Alaska in Congress, has lost her re-election bid. 😔 thehill.com/homenews/cam...

In response to that awful poll that has been circulating and misrepresenting the native vote: www.nativenewsonline.net/opinion/poll...

Nothing Indigenizes a government institution better than practicing ceremony during political process. In this case, its a haka on the parliament floor. Excellent response by the Māori MPs in NZ. Changing treaty interpretation after almost 200 years is nasty business: www.bbc.com/news/videos/...

It was lovely speaking with NPR on how we had more Native candidates for office than ever before during this recent cycle! Once in office, Native American electeds are agenda-setting and leading on tribal sovereignty policy in American institutions. www.npr.org/2024/11/02/n...
