Happy #NationalParkWeek! My district includes the beautiful Pipestone National Monument—home to dozens of pipestone quarries still in use by American Indians today and surrounded by 301 acres of tallgrass prairie and a stunning waterfall. It's worth a visit! #FindYourPark

We need to make sure a bonding bill meets the basic needs of MN and doesn't engager our credit rating. -@SenatorWeber #YourLegislators #MNLeg

The Senate won't support a $3 bonding bill. We're looking at a projected deficit of $2.5 billion. The longer businesses stay closed, the worse it's going to be. We have to look at our integrity as a state. -@SenatorWeber #YourLegislators #MNLeg

So the Air Force Academy can graduate 1000 cadets in an outdoor ceremony but Pipestone High School can’t socially distance their 60 graduating seniors on the football field for their ceremony? Right now I see more than 60 people INSIDE Costco. Where is the common sense?
NEWS: Minnesota education officials ban large graduation ceremonies for the 2020 class in newly released guidance.

Looks like Majority Leader @_RyanWinkler didn’t like our message today on Insulin. “Character is what you do (when you think) no one is watching." #mnleg #Insulin4All

BEWARE: The MPCA is currently writing the rules for Gov Walz's vehicle emission control program (which is the California emission control program). This hurts us in rural Minnesota. We aren't California and we don't want to be!

Michelle is a friend of ag and a friend of southwestern Minnesota. She will be an excellent congresswoman #MN07

My prayers remain with the family of Dr. John Cox, a Luverne native and son of Mike & Cheryl. A series of missteps by WI authorities and hospital staff led to an unimaginable outcome. Please join me in calling for the wrongs to be corrected! #BringHerHome dglobe.com/community/4923798…
