As someone who testified in committee about tax, unemployment insurance and work comp fraud in construction I want to be clear that the idea fraud might be good for the economy was proposed by Republicans not @davepinto who was trying to point out where that thinking leads.
For decades, hazardous waste was dumped at "Area C" of the former Ford Plant (now Highland Bridge), feet from 1 of the world's great rivers. We need a longterm solution that protects future generations. Sen Murphy and I sent this to the MPCA urging full cleanup of the site.#mnleg
Yesterday was tough - the first time the House has met since Melissa & Mark Hortman were taken from us. May we continue to be inspired by their lives of service and steadfast love for our state.
I’m with legislators from more 10 states at a state Senate hearing on ICE’s activities in Minnesota - watch it live here: youtube.com/live/X_5_u5khe58…

Donald Trump has brought his lawlessness to Minnesota, sending ICE agents here to divide and terrorize our communities.
But House DFLers will always stand with our neighbors.
We are Minnesotans. And Minnesotans have each other’s backs.
My latest column in the Community Reporter highlights the progress we're making in Minnesota, despite strong headwinds from the White House. #EverybodyIn

Great to be at the @NCSLorg convening on evidence-informed policymaking. #EverybodyIn
The chaos and cruelty of Trump’s immigration policy are now fully focused on Minnesota, especially (though not limited to) Somali-Minnesotans.
His disastrous agenda is raising prices, and so he’s trying to distract us by shifting the blame yet again. It’s critical that everyone in our community knows their rights - and know that they’re not alone. #EverybodyIn
Check out - and share - these resources from ACLU of Minnesota : aclu-mn.org/en/issues/immigr…
As a condition for passing a state budget & avoiding a shutdown, Republicans demanded taking away health insurance from undocumented Minnesotans.
This isn’t about fiscal responsibility - it’ll cost all of us more as hospitals and ERs take up the slack - it’s about cruelly demonizing people for political gain. My DFL colleagues and I will cointinue to stand with our immigrant neighbors. #EverybodyIn #mnleg

The budget for the Jobs Committee (which I co-chair) has just passed the House! Even with very tight budget constraints and a tied House, we were able to find common ground, protect past gains, and make some targeted investments.
Will look forward to conference committee and the chance to continue to build a state where every worker - and every person - can thrive. #EverybodyIn #mnleg house.mn.gov/members/profile…
