🔥DFL Rep. Jamie Long tears into House Republicans for wasting time trying to impeach Tim Walz instead of doing literally anything to improve peoples' lives: “The public is asking us to actually do things that help them. They are facing real challenges. And yet here we are debating this nonsense.”

WATCH: Republicans just abruptly ended their own press conference on “keeping kids safe in schools” after being asked if they were going to address guns. Families and survivors of school shootings are calling on us to do something about guns, and Republicans are just... ignoring them??

DFL Rep. Cedrick Frazier calls out GOP legislators who continue to deny and ignore the effects of ICE's occupation of Minnesota: "Look at what happened to this state. Acknowledge the harm. Not as a political concession, but as a human one. And let's respond with the urgency Minnesotans deserve."

BREAKING NEWS: a federal judge just ordered the Trump administration to turn over all their evidence on Renee Good’s murder.

The closure of HCMC would be catastrophic for Minnesotans. HCMC is a shining example our health care system *should* work — they accept patients regardless of whether they have insurance or the ability to pay massive medical bills. Today, we’re advancing legislation to save this vital resource.

This should not be controversial: schools should be safe places for learning, not targets for violence and overreach from ICE. www.startribune.com/minnesota-di...

BREAKING: We just introduced a bill to tax the ultra-rich in Minnesota! For too long, millionaires and billionaires have been able to horde wealth while the rest of us struggle to afford basic necessities. We're fighting to fix this broken system and ensure the ultra-rich pay their fair share.

DFL Rep. David Gottfried just gave an INCREDIBLE speech calling out and dismantling the GOP's fearmongering about the trans community. "This is part of a larger hysteria that has been manufactured by the far-right and our president to distract from the real issues that people are facing."

Great point by @leighfinke.bsky.social: The President of the United States has threatened the annihilation of an entire country by tonight, and Republican legislators are spending the day… trying to ban trans kids from playing youth sports. These are really their priorities??

WATCH: Republicans desperately try (and fail) to shut down DFL Rep. Kelly Moller as she points out that if the GOP *really* cared about "protecting women and girls," then they'd care about all the ways that their favorite president has assaulted and abused women and girls.

Happy Easter, Minnesota! From all of us in the House DFL, we're wishing a joyful day to all who observe.

GOP Rep. Drew Roach voted against gun violence prevention legislation because, according to him, legislation wouldn't do anything, and 'the gospel of Jesus Christ' is the only way to stop mass shootings. They're really saying anything they can to justify doing nothing at all.

So now that Pam Bondi has been fired and the Dow is WAY below 50,000, are we allowed to talk about how Donald Trump's name appears 38,000 times in the Epstein Files now?

As the Passover holiday begins, we’re wishing blessings and peace to all those celebrating and communing for Seder. Let this be a moment for all of us to remember the importance of freedom, hope, and perseverance. Chag Pesach Sameach, Minnesota!

Car insurance rates are skyrocketing due to corporate greed. While these companies are seeing record profits, Minnesotans are struggling to afford the insurance they need in order to drive. We spoke to Minnesotans about how this issue has affected them - and how we're fighting to fix it.

To our trans community, know this: you will always have a home here in Minnesota, and we will always have your back. You are seen, you are loved, and you deserve to live a full life with the safety and dignity that everyone deserves. Happy Trans Day of Visibility! 🏳️‍⚧️🩵🩷🤍

WOW. New data just revealed that ICE agents arrested 3,800 Minnesota residents this winter – averaging 33 arrests every day. More than 75% of those arrested had no criminal record. ICE agents are not just going after the worst of the worst, and they are not making communities better off.

ICYMI - Samuel L. Jackson (!!) narrated this powerful video for Saturday's No Kings rally about the strength of Minnesotans protesting ICE: "When your neighbors are being attacked and your communities are being targeted, you don't give up. You don't look away. You don't back down. You showed up."

Already a MASSIVE crowd gathered at the Minnesota state capitol and there’s still *more than an hour* until today’s No Kings rally gets officially underway here in St. Paul. LFG!

Yesterday, we pushed to advance bills to protect Minnesotans. Every Democrat voted in favor of moving these bills forward, and every Republican voted against them. Now the public knows whether their representative stands with kids or with ICE and the gun lobby.

A heartbreaking and important moment on the House floor as Rep. Brad Tabke reads a letter he received from a dad who survived the Annunciation shooting last August, in support of Tabke's bill to ban high-capacity magazines:

In February, four Minnesota House Republicans sent a “strongly worded letter” to then-Secretary Kristi Noem asking her to limit ICE activity near schools. Today, all four of them (and every other House Republican) voted AGAINST advancing a bill to do exactly that and keep ICE out of our schools.

🚨HAPPENING NOW: We’re taking action to advance our legislation to keep ICE out of schools in Minnesota. Rep. Sydney Jordan: "This vote is choosing the safety of our kids over a federal agency that lies to us. It’s choosing learning over fear. It's choosing humanity over politics.”

🚨REPUBLICANS WANT TO QUIT?!🚨 After blocking almost all substantial legislation to lower costs or improve the lives of Minnesotans, Republicans just... tried to end the legislative session. They want to pack it up and go home. This is pathetic. Minnesotans deserve better than these antics.

Good news: we just DEFEATED the Republican bill to kick 450,000 small business employees off of Minnesota's Paid Family Leave Program. You deserve access to paid leave, regardless of where you work or how many coworkers you have. We won't ever let the GOP take this critical support away from you.

Today, Republicans are trying to push legislation that could strip paid family & medical leave from small business employees. If you work at a small business, you're not less likely to get sick, and your baby isn't going to grow up any faster. You have our word: we'll defeat this anti-worker bill.

??? GOP Rep. Mary Franson says she's not worried about climate change because it's not in the Bible: "If you've read the Good Book, you know how it ends, and it's not with climate change." How can we expect Republicans to do serious work when they're so proud about ignoring science?

Corporations should not be allowed to use AI and surveillance data to determine your wages. We proposed a bill to protect you from this shady practice today, but Republicans sided with corporations - again. Rep. Pete Johnson is right: the GOP needs to grow a spine.

BREAKING: The Minnesota House just unanimously passed legislation to repeal Cesar Chavez Day in Minnesota. DFL Rep. María Isa Pérez-Vega: "Our movements are not one person. And we believe women. This is an opportunity to affirm our solidarity with farmers and our belief in women who speak up."

It’s not every day that farmers, grocers, and workers are all on the same page, but earlier this week they all came together in support of a DFL bill protecting Minnesota’s meat industry from corporate consolidation. Big companies like Walmart and Costco should not be dictating our lives.

Eid Mubarak, Minnesota! From all of us in the House DFL to our Minnesota Muslim community, we wish you a blessed and joyful Eid al-Fitr.

Minnesotans have shown the world the best of what community can be — what it means to stand with your neighbors and stand up to injustice. We're so proud of our state and the incredible people who call Minnesota home. A well-deserved honor. www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/ne...

Abhorrent and disgraceful. The Trump administration is doubling down on its cruelty. They have spent more energy working to deport a five-year-old kid than doing anything to improve people’s lives. Hopefully this decision is overturned and this family can know peace in this country.

GOOD NEWS: We just defeated another GOP attempt to weaken our state's Paid Family & Medical Leave program! 🎉 Quick check on the scoreboard: DFLers in Minnesota have now successfully rejected *every single* bill Republicans have tried to push forward to weaken or repeal Paid Leave.

Obviously 'the Trump administration lies!' is not exactly breaking news, but this is an excellent breakdown of just how grotesque and relentless the lying from the Trump administration has been about ICE and Minnesota. www.startribune.com/trump-minnes...

Here’s a (not-so) radical idea: your energy bills should not be paying for higher CEO salaries. We’re fighting for legislation to prohibit Minnesota’s utility companies from raising rates or using the money they make from energy bills to pay for C-suite salaries.

Reps. Kozlowski and Agbaje react to Republicans blocking $40 million in emergency rental assistance, after an illegal federal occupation impacted the ability to work and live our lives. It passed with GOP support in the Senate, but not one House Republican would vote to keep people in their homes.

Rep. Andy Smith calls out the greed of health insurance companies: “Can you explain to the people of Minnesota why the largest provider can increase the pay of their CEO by 34% while also raising their premiums 18%?”

This is great news, and it makes it even more damning that Minnesota House Republicans unanimously opposed a bill to do the same thing earlier this week. If the U.S. Senate can agree on this, along with a majority of Americans, why is the MN GOP still siding with corporations?

Today, MN legislators unanimously voted to rename our state's solar program in honor of Melissa Hortman. Melissa was the author of the bill to create the program back in 2013; she often said it was her proudest accomplishment. We miss you, Melissa. Thank you for everything. 💚

House DFL Leader Zack Stephenson blasts GOP leadership for suggesting people 'chose to stay home’ while ICE was terrorizing Minnesota: “When you’re forced to stay home from work because you could be arrested based on the color of your skin or the accent you speak with, that’s not a choice."

The courts are confirming what we’ve long seen with our own eyes: ICE agents are engaging in racist and reckless conduct, frequently arresting citizens and legal residents on no basis other than the color of their skin.

It’s not radical to think that if you work hard, you should be able to rent, buy, and stay in your home. But the GOP just voted against bills to 1) deliver rental assistance, 2) ban private equity from buying single-family homes, and 3) crack down on greedy landlords of manufactured housing lots.

We're taking action to support Minnesotans facing evictions through no fault of their own. While federal agents illegally profiled and detained folks in the streets, our economy was decimated. This common-sense proposal keeps our economy going, while supporting Minnesotans.

🚨GOP Rep. Greg Davids: "I like price increases. I want my insurance companies making lots of money."🚨 He goes on to call the idea of corporate greed "silliness." These are really the priorities for Minnesota Republicans?!

Checking in on Donald Trump’s campaign promise to lower gas and energy prices…🤔

House DFLers are proposing legislation to ensure that federal agents who lived in Minnesota during Operation Metro Surge have to pay state taxes. This whole operation cost an exorbitant amount of state and local resources; the least these agents can do is pay their fair share.

Today in @rollingstone.com: a remarkable profile on the inhumane tactics of ICE in Minnesota’s suburbs — and the incredible ways Minnesotans in Shakopee (including DFL Rep. Brad Tabke) have stood up to protect our communities. Full article here: archive.is/BBvVQ

We’re joining Minnesotans tonight in mourning the loss of Sgt. First Class Nicole Amor. We will not forget her service and sacrifice, and our hearts go out to her family and friends following this heartbreaking tragedy. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

BIG NEWS: DFLers are standing up to the shady practices of billionaire-owned corporations. We just introduced legislation to END surveillance pricing in Minnesota. No more surge prices, dynamic ‘cost adjustments’ designed to charge you the maximum, or consumer privacy violations.
