Further proof we can mine non-ferrous minerals safely in the same way, here on the Range!
"It's really an amazing site." Reaction from Rep. Cal Warwas, after he visited the nation's only nickel mine. A look at the trip to the Eagle Mine in Michigan. wdio.com/top-stories/lawmake…
Thank you @mnguncaucus - House Republicans will continue to stand for our 2nd Amendment rights!

Rep. Cal Warwas (R-Calumet) takes the House floor on May 14th, 2026 with a message that starts with a text from his 18-year-old son — and ends with a stark reminder of what was actually at stake this session.
His son asked the same question thousands of Minnesota gun owners have been asking: Is the gun ban going to pass? Is it coming to the House?
Rep. Warwas's answer is direct: "We're the backstop. The House GOP is the backstop for these bad bills."
In one of the most clear-eyed floor moments of the debate, Rep. Warwas reminds Minnesotans of a hard truth most people have forgotten: without House Republicans holding the line at the start of this session, the DFL's massive gun control package would already be law in Minnesota. Today. Right now.
"Without the House GOP, Democrats would have passed massive gun control at the start of this session. And it would be law. It would be law right now. I don't think there's any doubt about that."
And while protestors yelled outside the chamber doors demanding passage, Rep. Warwas named exactly what the DFL would be doing if they had the votes:
"They would celebrate criminalizing law-abiding gun owners."
HF 5140 is the House clone of SF 4067 — the DFL's omnibus gun ban package that would criminalize commonly-owned semi-automatic rifles, certain shotguns and pistols, home-built firearms, and turn hundreds of thousands of law-abiding Minnesotans into felons overnight.
The Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus is leading the fight against this bill. The 2026 session is in its final hours.

The DFL has said all year we have a “revenue” problem… we need to TAX MORE to fix their trifecta’s mistakes. But last night, with deadlines looming - we magically found money from a ridiculous train project to temporarily fund their unemployment insurance before it’s fully repealed. Who knew?!
Democrats don't take state failure seriously. They don’t deserve governing power again.
Thanks @tptAlmanac for the opportunity! Lots of great pics from our Range cities here too - enjoy! #MyIronRange

I've got mixed feelings. I feel like the more Walz is away, the better off we are, generally speaking...funny he likes the national scene so much after failing to clinch VP.

He has a $6 billion deficit, but is in Iowa today doing another state’s politics. You work for Minnesota, @Tim_Walz!

For 15 days, House Democrats have unconstitutionally SHUTDOWN the legislature, while they refuse to show up to work. How long will they neglect their duties and force Minnesota taxpayers to pay the costs?
Intensely proud of my family today! Thank you one and all for being at the swearing in of Minnesota's 94th legislative session. My ❤️ is full!
So proud of Leah Warwas, for prioritizing her school, studying hard for her Journeyman's test, missing the event. #mnleg
What a great group of friends this morning at the entrance to the Minntac mine. I've worked up there for over 28 years, and the energy for our movement is palpable!! #MyIronRange #ExpandYourRange
Great to be with @Calwarwas, @SkrabaForHouse, @SpencerIgoMN, and @RobFarnsworthMN greeting folks headed to work this morning!
We had a great tour at the Hibbing Public Utilities power plant today. They turn wood scraps few others could use into electricity got ratepayers, a truly renewable/green source of electric power! Well done, and thanks for the invite!

Met with folks at Kirscher Transport today then bumped into this fun bit of history tonight! Love it! #MyIronRange
So grateful for the work of the @MNPoliceAssn and LETAC organizing a Violent Crime Summit in Moundsview. Hard hitting, informative, and worth our time. God bless all that wear the uniform and their support systems too, up and down the chain of command.
ALT Imran Ali and Brian Peters with us at the Summit - two amazing men!

Massive wins tonight for @Calwarwas & Aaron Repinski — two Republicans in key swing districts as we work to flip the House this November! #mnleg
A nice opportunity to send my message to voters through the @MesabiTribune, take a look! Stark contrast between me and Matasich for Tuesday's Primary Election -
