A single red rose rests at Senator Bruce Anderson’s desk, honoring his dedicated service and enduring legacy. He served Minnesota with quiet strength, deep humility, and unwavering values rooted in faith and community. We mourn his loss and pray for his family and loved ones.

The @mngop has been gifted an opportunity to align our state with the national trend toward normalcy. But we won't succeed unless we first address the cancer within, a bad faith organization which doesn't care whether we win and shares goals with Democrats - @action_liberty

I hope the homeowner files suit against the city councilmembers who enabled this. Absolutely criminal.
Here’s what’s left after an encampment went up in flames late last night at 24th and 15th in Minneapolis. Entire family forced out of the charred home you see. Neighbors frustrated, say they’ve been calling the city to clear the encampment for months. Latest on @wcco at noon.

Until the 21 ballots are accounted for it's impossible to certify the election and irresponsible for Brad Tabke to be declaring victory. Stay tuned.
Rep. Brad Tabke declares victory after yesterday's recount: "These results only affirm how committed I am to our incredible, diverse community. We will continue working together to make progress for Shakopee’s working families, seniors, and small businesses."

This really happened tonight. They won't answer questions! Arrogance at it's best
WATCH: Rep. @ImSchultz asked what should've been a very easy question for the DFL majority: What percentage of our state budget should be spent on people here illegally? TEN different DFL Reps refused to answer: Hill Rehm Cha Klevorn Long Brand Pursell Smith Frederick Bahner

Southwest Light Rail continues to be a money pit, especially under the less-than-watchful eyes of the Met Council.

Rep Lucy Rehm (occupation: government), while reading from her phone, tells farmers that they must save their family farms by selling out to solar developers. “Solar is the new corn!”

An impressive young man… We should consult with our physicians and make health decisions best for us and our families! And MOST importantly: we must have the freedom to do so.

We can thank the Mn Twins/State Fair for being the drivers behind finally having a ‘roadmap’ to re-opening. Something got his attention Walz has certainly not heard the Hospitality industry like he should have. We will take any win we can and thank you operators!

Great Interview Michelle!
State @SenatorBenson joins @BloisOlson to talk about the letter she is sending @GovTimWalz on re-opening restaurants and bars. pscp.tv/w/cr3OwTFlVlFZT3FPTF…

Gov. Walz is going around the #mnleg once again to dictate to auto dealers what cars they sell on their lots, adopting a standard set by a state whose air quality is worse than Minnesota's. Gov. Walz must stop going around the legislature. #DriveAwayCA

I witnessed a meltdown today when Walz tried to justify new restrictions. Reporters finally drove many points including “Gov, do you think these restrictions are actually legit?”@GovTimWalz @grove

Waiting now until Wednesday?!Governor our businesses need time to plan. To call employees back. To order food/inventory. To install additional safety measures. The tight turnaround adds further harm on top of closures. Please announce your plans Monday. #mnleg

The Rosenquist family were generous hosts who showed off their tractors and shared their recent challenges with farming. They don't need government to tell them how to be good stewards of the land. Thanks to Rep @DaveBakerMN for joining in our discussion.
