It was a big day for our family. I adopted my foster son of 2 years, Liam.
Then he picked tacos & a Kraken cake for the after celebration, & then to a water park!
Everyone's exhausted and happy!

Senate Republicans are openly joking they're going to break the filibuster record in the MN Senate tonight as they continue to try and slow our work.
Well, I'm rested up & brought my toothbrush. 💪🪥🌛

Completely on-brand for MN GOP.
They try to represent the suburbs with a press conference consisting entirely of white, conservative men.
Let me guess: Among other things, they all think they're better suited than actual women to make reproductive decisions about our bodies. 🙄
How do you organize and announce the formation of a "Suburban Solutions Caucus" and not include any female suburban members of your caucus? Is this an #SNL skit? #mnleg
I was proud to partner with @ProtectMNAdvo and @MomsDemand during my campaign and to support sensible gun legislation during its path through the MN Senate.
Today was a good day in making our state a little safer!
Today, Minnesota Republicans wasted everyone's time with an amendment banning public funding of... necromancy and the occult.
Minnesota Republicans aren't even trying anymore. #mnleg
For those saying "he needs to get out of his bubble" the reality is he just doesn't care.
I've never seen him show any form of compassion in any situation.
The desire for basic gun legislation is something I heard as a non-partisan issue at the doors in my district & something I believe in strongly as a mother.
I'm glad MN is taking guns sense steps by enacting universal background checks & extreme risk protection orders.

TheTax bill just passed the MN Senate!
Includes:
✔️Rebates: $260person up to $1300 household
✔️Major Social Security tax cuts
✔️Major Child tax credits, estimated to reduce child poverty by 1/3💕
✔️Almost $300mil in property tax relief.
This is HUGE for Sr.s & working families!!
For those who asked, here is my floor speech from Friday night about my own pregnancy loss, explaining why these complicated and heartbreaking decisions need to be left to the person who is pregnant.

Unless something's really egregious, I don't media slam my colleagues.
It's tacky.
Sen. Lucero has no such class
1. he tried to push climate denial
2. I brought facts
So, he dishonestly edited this for his ego. (spoiler...I answered the Q)
Actual exchange:
Democrats are the source of MANY bad ideas. For some reason, they can't seem to explain the warming period after the Ice Age... because Minnesota wasn't a state. You really can't make this up.
Happy Veterans Day to all who have served!
I'm so honored I'll be representing us in the MN Senate as:
☑️One of the only legislators still serving (National Guard)
☑️One of the longest serving (30+yrs so far)
☑️The first female Vet in 10+yrs
Thank you for the support!
