Merry Christmas, Minnesota! When darkness falls around us, may we light the way for one another. Wishing you love and peace, friends. 🎄❤️🌟

I was one of the founders of Minnesotans for Paid Family and Medical Leave. After years of organizing, we got it done. Starting January 1st, Minnesotans won't have to choose between a paycheck or taking care of a sick loved one.

I still believe politics is about improving people’s lives. I think a lot of the folks in Washington have forgotten that. Let’s remind them that doing our best for people, not corporations, is what their work should be all about.

The strength of our democracy depends on a free press. We need the press to tell the truth — especially when it’s hard. We need to know how the Trump admin pressured CBS. And we need the full truth about the abuses inside CECOT.

I'm fighting for Medicare for All. Because that’s what people need and what they deserve.

Thanks to Rep. Xiong for throwing another great Christmas party! It's always great to gather on the East Side of Saint Paul.

A huge thanks to Artspace Lofts for hosting us in Hastings today! A packed house today to talk about lowering costs, protecting our neighbors, and making Washington work for Minnesotans.

Wow, Red Wing! Known for your boots, but you should be known for your enthusiasm!  Folks are fired up for a Senator willing to fight for them – I’m ready.

Stop #5 on the Loud Clear Voice Tour is done and dusted! (But who's keeping track?) Thanks to everyone who joined us in Lake City this morning -- you give me hope.

How are we going to address the cost of living crisis? We're going to stand up to the big corporations that are driving up costs, from healthcare to housing. youtube.com/shorts/zIoK1...

I miss my friend, Melissa. This is a beautiful piece about her life. 💚 🌳 www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Last night, I heard from folks on Lake Street. ICE’s racial profiling has scared folks from coming to work, from going out to shop. Small businesses make up the heart of our state — and they’re feeling the effects. Attacks on our immigrant neighbors are an attack on all of us. We stand together.

My single mom relied on the Child Care Assistance Program to go back to school and get her degree in phlebotomy. That job got us closer to the middle class. Every family should have access to child care - that’s why I’m going to fight for universal child care in the Senate.

Our health insurance system is a disaster. Period. First, we need to stop prescription drug price gouging and end insurance companies' prior authorization games. Then, we organize our way to Medicare for All.

I visited with our Uber and Lyft drivers at the airport - folks who have been targeted by ICE raids. This chaos affects our economy and hurts everyone. When hard-working Minnesotans are being pulled off the job, everyone loses. I'm with you.

50 days until precinct caucuses on February 3rd. This is how we make our voices heard in this election. Commit to caucus on February 3rd here: act.peggyflanagan.com/survey/volun...

Hanukkah Sameach! I'm wishing all our Jewish neighbors a joyous Hanukkah filled with love, light, and latkes.

From Stewartsville to Brown University to the attack this morning in Australia, senseless acts of gun violence have robbed families of beloved members during the holiday season. Today, I’ll be holding my family a little tighter. But we all must commit to ending this cycle of hate and violence.

Wow - great energy at the DFL State Central Committee meeting today! So many volunteers and activists come together every day to make our party strong. Your work does not go unappreciated.

I met James back when I was a trainer at Camp Wellstone. I was honored to have him join me on my Loud Clear Voice Tour. I’m running my campaign the same way I was taught - by showing up in every community, and listening to folks. That’s how we win.

One good job should be enough to afford your life.

My faith tells me to welcome the stranger.

As I travel Minnesota, folks tell me that without these tax credits, they won't be able to afford insurance. Because of Republicans' votes today, Minnesotans will lose healthcare, get sicker, and some will even die without coverage.

Universal healthcare isn't too much. Premiums are too much - that's exactly why we need Medicare for All.

Letting AI decide whether or not you can get the treatment your real-life doctor thinks you need? Nobody is asking for this. It's an irresponsible dangerous gamble by the Trump Administration.

I had a blast this weekend on the first leg of my Loud Clear Voice Tour! 4 cities down, 34 to go.

Respectfully, Congresswoman, you voted with Republicans to strip due process from immigrants and to praise Trump's ICE. This year. Now you're upset? Votes have consequences. Minnesotans deserve better.

This weekend, I joined the Somali community in Willmar for lunch at the Somali Star restaurant. Minnesotans are going to show up for our neighbors. That's who we are.

We’re hearing reports that ICE detained a U.S. citizen for 24 hours here in the Twin Cities. To be clear: Detaining law abiding citizens is unconstitutional. And rounding people up because of the color of their skin is disgusting.

Another great stop on our Loud Clear Voice Tour - this time with pastries! A huge shoutout to everyone who showed up at Easy Day Cafe this evening.

Wow, Montevideo! Thanks for showing up today to share your stories (and a beer) at Talking Waters Brewing.

Thanks to all the folks who joined us in Litchfield to kick off our Loud Clear Voice Tour! Minnesotans deserve a Senator that listens to and speaks for them - not corporate special interests.

I grew up feeling like the bottom could fall out at any moment. I've spent my career fighting for families like mine, making sure Minnesotans can get ahead. I’m honored to join Bernie Sanders in the fight for working people. youtube.com/shorts/nsyS5...

Donald Trump’s attacks on the Somali community are not about safety. They’re about stoking division and fear.

Somali Minnesotans are a part of the fabric of our beautiful state. Somali Minnesotans are teachers, nurses, neighbors - our friends. Trump's vile hate has no home here.

Well actually, hell is any room with you, Trump. Minnesota is ranked one of the happiest states in the country because you don't live here. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lw_l...

Now is the moment to choose your fighter. Who do you want fighting for you?

📣 No Dem Left Behind proudly endorses Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan for U.S. Senate, she is a champion for working families and a powerful voice for Minnesota’s future. Read more: nodemleftbehind.medium.com/no-dem-left-...

Somali Minnesotans are our neighbors - and in Minnesota, we give a damn about each other. Donald Trump's goons have caused fear and division everywhere he's sent them. We don’t need this chaos - and Minnesotans will reject it. I’m with you.

6 weeks. 38 cities. The countdown to precinct caucuses on February 3rd is on. Check out when I'll be in your neck of the woods and sign up to join me on a stop of my Loud Clear Voice Tour. www.mobilize.us/peggyflanaga...

Minnesotans deserve a voice that speaks for them - not special interests or corporations. That's why I'm proud to announce my Loud, Clear Voice Tour. Come join me, Minnesota! I want to hear from YOU. www.mobilize.us/peggyflanaga...

I can't count how many hours I've spent on the phone fighting with my insurance company over my daughter's inhalers. We need to ban insurance companies' prior authorization practices - now.

“Native women get stuff done.” For the last day of Native American Heritage Month, I wanted to share another clip from my conversation with @peggyflanagan.bsky.social! When she becomes the next Senator from Minnesota, she will be the first Native Woman in the US Senate!

Ope, just gonna keep that axe.

My single mom worked hard, but she couldn't afford everything we needed without a little help. As a mom to a middle-schooler, I know just how much it costs to raise a kid right now. We need to expand the federal Child Tax Credit, so families can rest a little easier at night.

This Black Friday, I'm thinking about the folks who work full-time but still need help to make ends meet. Corporate greed has gone unchecked for far too long - and their profits are sky-high. It's time for a $17 minimum wage.

Gratitude is powerful and fuels resilience. We have so much to be thankful for even amidst tremendous challenges. I hope you reflect on the blessings in your life today surrounded by your loved ones. Happy Thanksgiving!

Minnesotans live better lives because of the professional work of teachers and nurses. The Trump admin's latest attack on folks who serve our communities doesn't just disrespect their expertise, it will drive up student debt and increase staffing shortages in essential fields.

Thanks to @meidastouch.com for having me on to talk about my campaign for Minnesota's open US Senate seat. We're building an amazing team - join us at PeggyFlanagan.com.
