Proud to stand with Bernie Sanders, @ilhanmn.bsky.social, and Tina Smith in support of @peggyflanagan.bsky.social.

And Keith Ellison, who is suing the fossil fuel companies for their part in all of this

If you're as pissed about the wildfire smoke as I am, channel it toward climate action: help elect climate champion @peggyflanagan.bsky.social to the US Senate and a DFL trifecta in Minnesota!

Democrats have a lot to gain - and nothing to lose - by talking about climate! As wildfire smoke chokes our communities, Minnesotans want to hear what candidates will do about it. electricnotes.news/p/yes-democr...

Kinda sick of this concept that environmental crimes, if punished at all, only incur (insignificant) fines for the company. This should get you prison time.

I'm finally digging into the cross tabs underlying the @searchlightinst.bsky.social memo telling Dems not to talk about climate change. It surprised me, but may not surprise you, that the memo lies about what US swing voters actually said in the polling. Let's have a look, shall we? 🧵

Such a strange time for this message. If I didn't know better I'd assume Jaime was talking about John Fetterman or Jared Golden.

Why the European left should always be pro-AC: - Ceding this popular issue to the right empowers them; in power they'll gut climate action far more than any AC "emissions." - AC runs on solar. Breaking news: The sun shines when it's hot. - AC saves lives. HEAT PUMPS FOR ALL! (AC is a heat pump...)

Wind, solar and geothermal are looking better than ever. Cheaper. Better for our health Better for national security. Better for our climate future.

The Republicans aren't beating the "Give Everyone Cancer Party" allegations.

4/17: Trump's EPA puts 2 employees of PFAS manufacturer Chemours on the EPA Science Advisory Board. 5/18: EPA wants to eliminate federal limits on 4 PFAS "forever chemicals" in drinking water. Read: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026... #PFAS #CleanWater #ForeverChemicals #ClimateAction

We're hiring! MEP is seeking a Policy Advocate to lead our efforts to advance pro-climate and pro-clean water policies in Minnesota. The job is open until filled, but apply by June 5th for priority consideration! www.mepartnership.org/jobs/policy-...

Had a great time speaking at this rally! Thanks to all those who stand up for Minnesota's future.

We are fighting for fairness, self-respect, and the ability to support a family in Minnesota. Join us at dfl.org/events

It couldn’t be a worse time for Minnesota to cut transit funding www.minnpost.com/cityscape/20...

The WI GOP told me WisDems keep eating their Supreme Court candidates so I asked how many candidates they have and they said they just go to Menards and get a new candidate afterwards so I said it sounds like they're just feeding candidates to WisDems and then Scott Walker started crying

Honored to be endorsed by the Sierra Club 🌎 We need bold action on climate, clean air, and protecting our natural resources—and I’m ready to get to work. From clean energy to environmental justice, this fight is about our future. #CrystalMN #PlymouthMN #GoldenValleyMN #RobbinsdaleMN #SD43DFL

Extremely proud of this endorsement - @peggyflanagan.bsky.social is the climate champion we need!

The ICE surge must ramp down as quickly as possible so we can get on with important recovery efforts, such as purging from public life anyone seeking statewide office who thought the federal government brutalizing Minnesota was a fine idea and just what we deserved.

If you think Minnesotans sat around and waited for some politician to tell them to protect their neighbors, oh honey. You don't know Minnesotans at all.

New worst Minnesota Republican just dropped

Very proud to announce this endorsement! Peggy Flanagan is the best choice to build on the outstanding work that Tina Smith (who has also endorsed Peggy!) has done in the Senate. She has my full support!

Minnesota Attorney General @keithellison.bsky.social and I are hosting a call TONIGHT to share how you can support Democrats as we organize to protect our communities, push back against ICE, and demand accountability. Sign up here: win.dnc.org/grassrootscall

Never forget the Minnesota GOP invited Nick Shirley here & plied him with intel, resulting in targeted harassment of innocent people and ultimately, this occupation.

For ease of navigation and sharing, I have turned my little list into a website: standwithminnesota.org

Ok, I've shifted my reporting trip to MSP to next week to catch the couple of days when it will be all the way in the 20s. Tossing out a call for contacts: I'm looking for folks who are new to activism and who have been pulled into what's happening there in ways they didn't expect. DMs are open.

Any church in America that has stayed neutral or supported the ongoing federal cruelty against Minnesotans should consider what it means to take the Lord's name in vain.

🚨 Today, I formally introduced articles of impeachment against Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. RFK Jr. has turned his back on science and the safety of the American people. Michiganders cannot take another day of his chaos.

The DFL Environmental Caucus has now opened our endorsements process for the 2026 cycle! If you know a candidate who may be interested in our endorsement, please point them to dflec.org/endorsements to fill out the applicable questionnaire and get the ball rolling.

Congratulations to our DFL primary winners in the Minnesota House special elections! Meet our candidates and help them win at dfl.org/specials!

It's that time of the year! Have you donated your refundable PCR amount ($75/person or $150/married couple)? #PoliticalContributionRefund #MN #grassroots

WE NEED SO MUCH MORE MONEY!!!!!! No time to fundraise staff is running themselves sick unidos-mn.org

🏠Minnesotans need more homes they can afford, and that won’t happen unless we make it easier to build them. Let lawmakers know that we need action now. Sign the Yes to Homes petition: actionnetwork.org/forms/yes-to...

Climate change may seem like a distant, future issue, but it's an: - affordability - housing - homelessness issue, TODAY. The more we push off climate mitigation and resilience actions, the more expensive in $, health, & quality of life it will be for all. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

We need to build more houses to bring down costs. Lots of ways to help do that! None of them entail a fifty year mortgage.

ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

Tonight, American voters delivered a Democratic resurgence.

False claims that clean energy is less affordable or reliable than fossil fuels are waaaaaaay out of date. Glad the Star Tribune published my op-ed setting the record straight.

When we look around the globe and even around our own country, there are examples of places that have all but eliminated roadway deaths. We can here in Minnesota too. It starts with roadway designs that prioritize safety above all else, instead of vehicle speeds as has been the norm for decades.

Help keep the Minnesota Senate in the DFL’s hands by giving $5 directly to one of our swingiest districts: the White Bear Lake/Vadnais Heights area. Give $5 to Heather Gustafson’s campaign now: secure.actblue.com/donate/5doll... Thanks!

Knew it would be bad. It’s so much worse.

Jeffrey Epstein’s estate has given Congress a copy of the 2003 birthday book, including the letter with Trump’s signature that he has said doesn’t exist. Read more: 🔗 on.wsj.com/4nGGdnJ

Republicans’ Energy and Water bill would result in higher utility costs and clean-energy job losses across Minnesota. Read my op-Ed:

Had a great time speaking at the @dncclimate.bsky.social meeting today on behalf of the DFL Environmental Caucus! It was a privilege to hear from Rep. Kristi Achor Pursell, Rep. Athena Hollins, Sen. Mary Kunesh and @peterwagenius.bsky.social about MN's leadership on climate and environmental policy.

COMING UP! This Monday 8/25 at the DNC Summer Meeting in Minneapolis: great speakers 💙and this terrific panel, Environmental Messaging and Outreach in Rural Communities! With MN State Sen @MaryKunesh9, MN State Rep Kristi @pursell4mnhouse.bsky.social, Council Native Dir/Frmr ND Ruth Anna Buffalo.

Help us reach 2,000 signatures on the open letter asking @mndot.mn.gov to give boulevard options a fair chance! betterthan94.org/open-letter/

All while removing those scary government staff that inspects food safety, tries to keep chemicals from our water supply, and ensures fossil fuels clean up pollution from the land and air...but we swapped out corn for cane sugar 🎊🥳🎉

71% of Minnesotans, the highest in the nation, support stronger environmental protections. You'd never guess that was true if you just hung out at the MN Capitol, where these protections are under constant assault. Politicians should take note. www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/...

"Make America Healthy Again" was always a lie. The GOP is fine with cancer rates skyrocketing because God forbid they do anything to regulate pollution.
