Inhumane ICE Conditions in Minnesota

I am writing as a constituent who is deeply disturbed by reports about the conditions inside the ICE holding area at the Bishop Henry Whipple Federal Building in Minnesota. According to detainee testimony and reporting, a Muslim woman was reportedly held in a locked bathroom with three unrelated me

From a constituent in Owatonna, MN

Stand up for Democracy and don't give in to Trump's extortion to not sign legislation until the SAVE Act is passed. The SAVE Act in its current form is a voter suppression bill with several pieces that amount to a poll tax or put barriers in place for legitimate voters. Instead you need to impeach h

From a verified voter in Grand Marais, MN

Dear Gov Walz: ICE /DHS is doubling down in Minneapolis/St Paul. Please we need your voice to tell them to GTF OUT, and to let national media outlets know that they are still here. I am seeing video after video of violent attacks on protesters, threats of violence, and terrorizing children. These t

Invoke Article II, Section 4 now!

You must invoke Article II Section 4 of the Constitution. The Trump administration is starting illegal wars. They are doing Israel's bidding with our tax money! And Trump is a Russian asset. Code name Krasnov. We are sinking into fascism and we are afraid of our own government.

Opposition to War with Iran and Demand for War Powers Legislation

As your constituent, I am writing to express my profound dismay regarding President Trump’s recent actions signaling a move toward war with Iran. The prospect of a major conflict in the Middle East is deeply concerning, and I urge you to take immediate action to prevent this escalation.  I strongly

Stop military action against Iran

I am writing to demand immediate action in response to President Trump’s unauthorized military strikes on Iran. Congress holds the power to declare war, not the president. Yet the administration has launched the US into armed conflict without congressional authorization, putting our service members,

Support for Statewide Expansion of the Blue Envelope Program in Minnesota

I am writing to express my strong support for the expansion and standardization of the Blue Envelope Program across Minnesota.

From a constituent in Woodbury, MN

Get ICE out, stop arresting peaceful protesters, and eviction moratorium now!

Dear Governor Walz, I am a voter from MN. I voted for you, in fact. Why are the state patrol and sherrifs arresting peaceful protesters at the Whipple building??? Again? There are literal snipers on the roof of the Whipple building pointed at the protesters. This so called draw-down is a lie. Gove

From a constituent in Saint Paul, MN

Are your children fighting this war?

It's always the children of the working class who fight and die in senseless wars. Exactly how many children of Congress members and the Administration will be fighting and dying in this war with Iran. We the people do not want war! We want clean air, healthy food and health care. We want to take ca

Investigate Strike on School in Iran

Please investigate the 3 missile strikes on an all-girl’s school in Minaj, Iran. Please investigate why a school for 7 to 12 year olds was the first target of the US Military and the Trump Administration’s attack on Iran. I would like to see everyone responsible held accountable for their actions an

Everything….

So… y’all gonna do anything about anything???

From a constituent in Owatonna, MN

So Trump tells us last summer that Iran's nuclear capability was "obliterated" and only months later we're being told that we had to attack Iran because of how close they are to being a threat once again. And without going to Congress! Which situation was the truth? Either one?!? It's your job to in

Vote Against Joint Resolution 140 to Protect Boundary Waters

I urge you to vote against Joint Resolution 140, which would eliminate the 20-year mining moratorium protecting the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. This resolution misuses the Congressional Review Act to reverse Public Land Order 7917, issued by Interior Secretary Deb Haaland in 2023, which c

Stop Board of Peace "funding"

Please use your powers of persuasion to convince Republicans not to support Trump stealing $10BILLION for his personal "Board of Peace" ( What an oxymoron that is, funny how moron is part of that word....). We have to figure out a more effective way to stop this madnesd!!!

Oppose Steve Pearce's Nomination to Lead the Bureau of Land Management

I urge you to oppose Steve Pearce's nomination to lead the Bureau of Land Management. As director of the nation's largest land manager overseeing 245 million acres of public lands, this position demands someone committed to conservation and public access. Pearce's record demonstrates he is fundament

Oppose unqualified and dangerous Casey Means for Surgeon General

The US Surgeon General oversees public health and provides health advice to the public. Casey Means has proven she is incapable of doing this job safely and is woefully unqualified. Her medical license is lapsed, that should be the only thing that matters, but I will continue. Means has promoted l

Protect the Boundary Waters of MN from copper mining.

I'm asking you to vote against Pete Stauber's (R-Duluth MN) bill regarding allowing copper mining in the Boundary Waters in MN. Please do not open up the Boundary Waters and surrounding areas to this pollution for money scheme! Keep our precious Boundary Waters clean.

From a constituent in Minneapolis, MN

Protect SNAP

First, I want the Congressmember to vote no on the Farm Bill until Congress reverses the cuts to the SNAP Program from HR1. These attacks on nutritional assistance need to stop, and the Farm bill does nothing to fix them. If we have one and a half trillion for our military we can give back the 187B

Protect the BWCA; Abolish ICE; Stop Trump’s attacks on Iran

First, I want the Senator to vote NO on H.J. Res 140 this week. I want to see the Boundary Waters protected, not wrecked by a foreign mining company! Second, we have learned of yet another American citizen being murdered by ICE. It’s outrageous! ICE is a murderous agency that is completely out of c

Impeach Patel; Refund illegal tariffs

First, I understand that Reps Bynum and Horsford have introduced a bill called the Restoring Economic Lifelines for Independent Enterprises and Family Businesses (RELIEF) Act. This legislation would require CBP to refund tariffs and customs duties collected illegally by the Trump administration unde

From a constituent in Minneapolis, MN

No voter suppression; refund illegal tariffs!

First, I want the Senator to vote no on any Republican-introduced voter suppression bill, such as the SAVE Act, the MEGA Act, or the SAVE America Act. Next, we want the money we paid in illegal tariffs to be returned—not just to individual consumers, but to the many small businesses who have been h

I am writing as a constituent deeply concerned about the safety of Minnesota’s children. The gun‑violence epidemic has reached a point where ordinary school days now carry an undercurrent of fear. Families across our state are asking the same question: What is being done to keep our kids safe? Minn

Boycott SOTU and have more social media presence

I don't see your name on the list of those who are going to boycott the SOTU address tonight. I'm fact, I see very little from you on social media or on TV. I see other Reps who are speaking out about ICE in MN. Why not you? I'm very disappointed in your lack of visibility regarding important issues

From a verified voter in Blue Earth, MN

The GOP passed House Joint Resolution 140, opening up the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in MN for Chilean mining giant Antofagasta to mine copper and nickel...two of the most toxic mining operations after mercury. This the MOST visited wilderness area in the United States. This is defini
