Standing in solidarity with my union brothers in CWA today. These abductions do not make Minnesota safer. It's about attacking working people and stoking fear in our communities.

We need tough, serious oversight to crack down on fraud while protecting the programs hardworking families rely on.  Take a look at my latest statement below 👇

Proud to receive an endorsement from my brothers and sisters at IUPAT today! IUPAT District 82 represents workers in the finishing trades across the Midwest. I’m running for Congress to be a champion for working people, and I’m so grateful to have their support.

I'm so proud to be endorsed by Her Bold Move, an organization ensuring the future is shaped by women’s leadership. I’m running for Congress because those most impacted by policy should be the ones writing it—excited to have HBM on our team!

I’m very disturbed to hear about the threats to ISD 196 and the surrounding area today and so grateful to all of the public safety officials who made sure that every child got home safely. www.fox9.com/news/distric...

I am a working mom who has held multiple jobs to make ends meet, including still flying as a Flight Attendant while running for Congress. That’s why I fought for PFL in the state house—so every parent can care for a new child without worrying about putting food on the table.

Tonight, on the first night of Hannukah, I’m thinking about the tragic attack on the Jewish community in Sydney.  I am deeply disturbed by the rise in antisemitism and stand with my Jewish brothers and sisters around the world in mourning the lives lost and all those who were impacted.

I am heartbroken for the students killed and injured at Brown. No one studying for finals or heading into the holidays should face this kind of violence. This isn’t inevitable, sensible gun violence prevention laws can and will save lives.

Millions of Americans are about to see their insurance premiums skyrocket because of Republicans in Congress. Millions more could lose their health care. As someone who went without health care through a global pandemic, I know how scary this is. This is unconscionable.

Last night, Donald Trump called affordability concerns a “scam” and a “hoax.” But rising costs are very real in my bank account! I’m running for Congress because working Minnesotans deserve leaders who believe us when we say things are unaffordable, because they feel it too!

The Hepatitis B vaccine is safe, tested, and has kept children in Minnesota and across the country healthy for decades. As a mom, I’m horrified by RFK Jr.’s political rollback that makes all our kids less safe and undermines years of medical precedent. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/05/h...

Proud to earn the endorsement of Carpenters Union Local 464! Together, we’re building a future that lifts up working families, strengthens our communities, and protects the dignity of labor. Grateful for their trust and support — let’s get to work! 👷‍♂️🔨💙

There is no world in which it is acceptable to call another group of human beings “garbage.” What’s even more unacceptable is that this language is coming from the President of the United States. Somali Americans are Americans.

I'm joining Stop Big Money's Unrig Washington Campaign: a bold, public commitment to clean up Congress. I'm leading by example by refusing corporate PAC money, supporting a stock trading ban, and cracking down on dark money. #ecuunrigwashington

If the Grinch had a policy plan, it’d probably be: “Make every fake tree cost more, then watch Christmas flop.” Sound familiar? www.npr.org/2025/11/16/n...

Thanksgiving is a reminder of what we build together — community, care, and connection. I’m grateful for everyone in Minnesota who shows up for their neighbors, shares what they can, and makes this state feel like home. Wishing you a warm and meaningful holiday. 🍂🤍

I’m horrified to hear about the two members of the National Guard who were shot today in Washington DC. Violence like this has no place in our country. My heart is with their families.

Hosting the holidays this year? Thanks to Trump’s tariffs, it’ll cost you.

Thank you @mnfarmersunion.bsky.social for having me last night! I’m running for Congress to bring down health care costs for EVERYONE in #MN02. Family farmers are the backbone of our community — I’ll never stop fighting for the care they deserve at prices they can afford.

The Somali community in Minnesota belongs here. Stripping protections from families who've built their lives here and who contribute to every aspect of life in Minnesota is not okay.

My community and home state of Minnesota has faced horrific acts of political violence this year. POTUS is stoking these flames by threatening members of Congress with death. It is unacceptable and I condemn it wholeheartedly. www.nbcnews.com/politics/whi...

On Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember the transgender lives taken by violence and discrimination — and we recommit to the work ahead. Trans rights are human rights. Safety, dignity, and belonging are non-negotiable. We must protect and uplift trans communities every day.

When communities unite, change becomes unstoppable. So grateful for the diverse coalition of elected officials, community members, unions, and organizations standing with us to build a better Minnesota! 💙

It’s time. The House must vote to release the entire Epstein files. Justice cannot depend on wealth, power, or connection. Those who were harmed deserve justice — and those responsible must be named and held to account. No more secrecy. No more delays.

Seeing yet another dad — no criminal record, simply heading to work — violently arrested by ICE without presenting a warrant is deeply disturbing. This is not enforcement, it’s terrorizing families. sahanjournal.com/immigration/...

Today we honor the veterans who’ve served our country with courage and selflessness. Their sacrifice protects our freedoms—and we owe them not just gratitude, but lasting care and support. Thank you to all who’ve served.

On this day in 1975, the Edmund Fitzgerald went down on Lake Superior, claiming 29 lives — among them members of @steelworkers.bsky.social. We remember the brothers lost and stand in solidarity with the working people who keep our region strong. 📸: Smithsonian Magazine

Thankful marriage equality survived another day. Furious that it still needs to. The freedom to marry the person you love shouldn’t depend on nine justices choosing not to revisit it. Equality shouldn’t be temporary. apnews.com/article/supr...

While Trump & the GOP held their salaries hostage, air traffic controllers kept showing up — guiding planes and protecting passengers. They’ve earned gratitude, not hostility. It’s appalling the President would say this about the people keeping us safe. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

I’m honored to earn the endorsement of the North Central States Regional Council of Carpenters! Carpenters build the foundation of our communities and our economy—and I’m proud to stand with them in the fight for dignity and fairness for every worker.

As a flight attendant, I know how hard our TSA professionals work to keep us safe. They’ve kept MSP running—without pay. So grateful to Second Harvest Heartland, the Sanneh Foundation & MAC for stepping up to support them. That’s what Minnesotans do—we take care of each other. 💙 #MN02

As a flight attendant, I’ve seen how hard aviation workers fight to keep people safe and planes moving. Now they’re working without pay while flights are being cut. Enough is enough — end the shutdown and respect the workers who keep America flying. kstp.com/kstp-news/to...

When workers stand up, we all win. Proud to join Allina Health’s doctors, NPs & PAs on the picket line—making history and demanding the respect they deserve. As a proud union member, I’ve got their backs. ✊💙 #UnionStrong #MN02

What a night for Democrats! 🎉 Huge congrats to Senator-elect Amanda Hemmingsen-Jaeger on winning SD47—and to Dems across MN, VA, NJ & NY! Grassroots organizing works, and voters showed up for working families & our shared values. 💙

Sending love to my aviation family and all impacted by this devastating accident.

Wrapped up the final GOTV shift in SD47 for Amanda Hemmingsen-Jaeger! 💥 Polls are open until 8PM — make your plan to vote and find your polling place at mnvotes.gov! 🗳️

It’s Election Day! 🎉 Local elections shape our schools, communities, and daily lives — and your vote matters. Shoutout to MN-02 voters in Senate District 47 — be sure to head to the polls and support my friend Amanda Hemmingsen-Jaeger! 🗳️ More info: mnvotes.gov

So inspired by The Open Door’s incredible work feeding families as SNAP benefits are cut off. From kid snack packs to fresh flowers, every detail says: dignity matters. Thank you to Open Door and their volunteers spreading hope across MN-02. 💙

Because of the GOP shutdown, 1 in 13 Minnesotans just lost SNAP benefits. Families shouldn’t go hungry because Washington refuses to do its job. I’m sharing local food shelves & resources across MN-02 and calling on Congress to end this shutdown now.

From pirates and cat whiskers to campaign trails and town halls — a lot has changed since 2008, but Kaela’s love for community (and a good costume) never has! 🐾🎃 Happy Halloween from Team Kaela!

Had a chance to chat with @afacwa.org member @kaela15.bsky.social today. It's absolutely thrilling to have such a great legislator and union leader running for Congress! Lots of important races out there, but this one is worth your attention and, if you have the means, your money.

I’m heartbroken by the loss of Officer Pete Zajac, a 15-year veteran of the Farmington Police Department who dedicated his life to serving the community and supporting its students. My thoughts are with his family and loved ones. If you’re struggling, call or text 988 anytime.

Halloween is sweeter when it’s union-made! 🍫🎃

Thousands of Minnesotans are at risk of losing food assistance because of Trump’s ongoing government shutdown. No one should have to worry about putting food on the table, especially during Thanksgiving. Second Harvest Heartland has info on SNAP & food banks: 2harvest.org

Today we honor Indigenous Peoples’ Day — a reminder that justice means telling the truth about our history and fighting for a future where Indigenous voices are heard and respected.

Grateful to be recognized alongside other working-class women fighting for change. I know what it’s like to live paycheck to paycheck, to worry about rent, to go through a pandemic without health care, and to fight for my son in a school system stretched too thin.

Hi there, Kaela Berg here. I’d love for you to join me tomorrow night in Burnsville for a fundraiser in support of my campaign for Congress! Here are the details: 📍 Burnsville, MN 📅 Thursday, October 9th ⏰ 4–7 PM Use this link to reserve your spot: secure.actblue.com/donate/stran...

Thrilled to have earned the endorsement of the SMART Transportation Division today! I've been on the frontlines of the labor movement for more than 2 decades, and I'm ready to take this fight to Congress

As a flight attendant and union leader, I’ve spent my life standing up for working people. That’s why it means so much to have the support of @emilyslist, @steelworkers, @afa_cwa, @CWAunion + leaders across Minnesota. Together, we’ll win. ✊ #MN02

Launch day isn’t over yet — and the momentum keeps building. 🚀 Like I told the Reformer: this campaign is about not selling out the working class. 📰 minnesotareformer.com/briefs/dfl-r...
