Kristi Noem’s ICE terrorized our state with their tactics during Operation Metro Surge, incurred thousands of dollars in costs for our cities and left local leaders to foot the bill.

ICE needs to be held accountable for the economic damage they’ve inflicted on our state.

Here’s a little Dakota pick-me-up for your week... even she's exhausted by everything going on in the world.

Trump says he won't sign bills until Congress overhauls voting President Trump is pushing the Senate to abandon the filibuster and pass the SAVE American Act, a bill top Democrat calls "Jim Crow 2.0."

For the record – he’s talking about the SAVE Act, which would make it harder for women, people of color and students to vote.

This President is putting our democracy at risk every day, and he’s not even trying to hide it anymore.

The fact is: Trump’s Big Ugly Bill doesn’t actually cut taxes on Social Security.

My bill does.

I re-introduced the You Earned It, You Keep It Act, so all Minnesotans can retire on the benefits they’ve earned.

Oil Prices Spike Over $110 a Barrel, Highest Since Pandemic

Thanks to the war in Iran, oil prices are at their highest point since the pandemic. The President’s response: it’s a “very small price to pay” for “peace.”

All I see are skyrocketing prices and a war with no defined exit strategy at this point.

I’m proud to have received a 97% score on @lcv.org's annual Environmental Scorecard.

From the Boundary Waters to the Mississippi River – Minnesota is blessed with one-of-a-kind public lands.

I’ll always work on behalf of all Minnesotans to preserve these national treasures for generations to come.

Today is International Women’s Day.

Every day, I’m motivated by the strength of the incredible women in my life, including my wife Cheryl and my mom and grandma who helped raise me.

They’re why I am fighting every day for a better future for our daughters and granddaughters.

They even moved all the detainees out of the facility just 30 minutes before we arrived.

More hiding and lies from ICE. We’re demanding answers from outgoing Sec. Noem and DHS.

@repilhan.bsky.social and I were first denied our right to conduct unannounced oversight of the ICE detention center in Minneapolis. Then, when we gave seven days’ notice and were allowed to tour, ICE blocked us from speaking to any detainees.

Council signs off on Highway 13-Nicollet project An eagerly awaited highway project — and another season of road and lane closures — lie ahead in Burnsville.

This week, the Burnsville City Council approved a much-needed project for the Hwy 13/Nicollet Ave intersection.

I'm proud to have secured $3M in fed funding to reconstruct one of the most traveled intersections in CD2. This project will help generations of Minnesotans travel safer.

The U.S. lost 92,000 jobs in February and unemployment is up from January to 4.4%. Meanwhile Trump is starting a war in the Middle East and sending oil prices skyrocketing, all after enacting the largest transfer of wealth from working folks to billionaires ever.

Trump’s economy is America Last.

From tariffs to health care cuts, the Trump Admin has made life more unaffordable for Minnesotans.

And now, thanks to the war in Iran, the price of gas is skyrocketing too.

It’s just another one of Trump’s America Last policies. I wish I could say it’s surprising at this point.

There are no ifs ands or buts about it – the President does not have the power to declare war without approval from Congress. It’s in the damn Constitution.   

Today, I voted to immediately cease President Trump from carrying out any further illegal military action in Iran.

Minnesotans know we are not yet out of the woods — Senator Mullin will be just another rubber stamp for Trump’s illegal agenda. And I’ll keep fighting them at every turn.

Kristi Noem’s ICE terrorized our state and got two Minnesotans killed.

And to be clear, President Trump is firing Noem because she made him look bad, not because he believes her tactics were wrong.

It's a yes from me!

Today, House Republicans are again trying to jam through even more funding for Kristi Noem’s out-of-control ICE without any guardrails – or any accountability.

I’ll be voting no.

I refuse to give another penny to Noem’s ICE.

It’s that time of year again! The application for the 2026 Congressional Art Competition is now open.

I’m calling all high school artists to submit their work to my office by April 17th.

While my mom is in committee working on the farm bill all day, I’m holding down the fort at her office.

Let’s talk about Trump’s record on the military:
- He called America’s fallen heroes “suckers and losers”
- He cut food assistance for 1.2 million veterans
- He cut health care for millions of veterans to pay for tax cuts to the rich
And now he’s putting our troops in danger with no clear objective.

The Trump administration started a war with no plan to evacuate American citizens in the Middle East.

With each passing day, it becomes clearer that they don’t have a plan for this military operation at all.

Trump campaign peace promises loom large over Iran war The "anti-war" candidate has bombed seven countries and launched a new regime-change war in Iran.

More broken promises, more lies and more unnecessary wars. This is Trump’s America.

President Trump campaigned on the promise of “no new wars.”

Meanwhile, he’s ordered more air strikes than any modern President, invaded seven different nations in his second term and is now putting American troops directly in harm’s way.

@repilhan.bsky.social, @kellymorrisonmn.bsky.social, Rep. Betty McCollum and I were illegally turned away from the Whipple Building multiple times during Operation Metro Surge.

Today’s ruling reaffirms our legal right to conduct unannounced oversight visits at federal detention centers.
