  • With an impressive 95 percent of Americans supporting it, irrespective of their political affiliations, the well-being and continuation of Social Security ought to transcend party lines. Yet, the platforms of Minnesota's two leading political parties reveal a significant contrast in their strategies. #SocialSecurity #DFL #midterms #patrioticchickens

  • When I stepped into the voting booth, I wasn't by myself. I carried the memory of Renae Good, Alex Pretti, Melissa Hortman, George Floyd, Alec Smith, and Paul Wellstone with me. Sen. Raphael Warnock often reminds us that "A vote is a kind of prayer for the world we desire for ourselves and for our children." As you cast your vote, do so with joy rather than anger. Vote with compassion and a commitment to fairness. Vote for the kind of world you'd be proud to call home.

  • Trump and his enablers are paying attention to the wrong priorities. The four Republican members of Congress from Minnesota either stayed silent or actively supported him while his ICE agents attacked Minnesotans through Operation Metro Surge. Vote for better people at every level of the ballot this election. No politician is flawless, but choose those who want to improve life for Minnesotans. Minnesota ranks high in surveys about the best states to live in for a reason. Let's keep it that way

  • Addressing Social Security's funding crisis is straightforward—what's blocking progress are wealthy donors bankrolling Senate and Congressional campaigns. Minnesota's GOP advanced a resolution last spring to "phase out" Social Security, while Democrats championed expansion. Expanding the program means all Americans would contribute at the same flat rate currently applied only to earners below the $184.5K threshold. This approach would sustain the program for over 75 years and deliver a $200 mon

  • Make your family's economic security your priority in this election. We must find ways to reduce costs right now ... and we must protect Social Security for ourselves, our kids, and our grandkids. The Expansion Act will keep Social Security funded all the way through the year 2100. It will raise monthly benefits by $200 to help offset inflation and rising prices. Most importantly, it makes sure all people contribute fairly by eliminating the earnings cap. Please share, and learn more about th

  • The Republican Study Group—an influential U.S. House committee — has put forward a proposal that would slash Social Security by a staggering $1.5 trillion. And the Minnesota GOP is actively pushing to eliminate Social Security through gradual phase-out measures. Rep. Tom Emmer is the third-ranking leader of the House GOP. His job is to lean on members to secure the votes needed to pass unpopular legislation. This aggressive approach demands your immediate attention and action to protect the r
