We are lucky and thankful to have the support of Andrew Lang and his ongoing commitment to Seizure Smart Schools Legislation (SF1953).

It was great to meet with Ruth Schmitz, a constituent with Epilepsy Foundation of Minnesota! I am the author of the “Seizure Smart” bill to make sure teachers and staff in schools know how to recognize seizures & what to do if it happens to a child. This could save lives!

Members of Willmar FFA stopped by to meet with me at the State Capitol today. We talked about their awesome successes & the value of ag education in our schools. Thanks to Kaitlin, Julia, Grace, and adviser Lance Brune for making the trip! MN FFA Association #mnleg

Thank you to Cherrish Holland, Mark Peterson, Alyson Keenan, and Amanda Peterson for joining me at the Capitol in PreK-12 advocacy efforts today. Also, a huge thanks to Representative Dave Baker and Senator Andrew Lang for being good listeners. Andrew Lang #mnleg #isd345

Proud to speak on behalf of Michelle Fischbach in Monte this morning! She’ll be great in Congress. #MN07

We are in unprecedented times that are testing, and will continue to test, the readiness of our state. In light of CDC guidance, the Minnesota Senate will recess until April 14. My office will be open on a limited basis to ensure the safety of staff. More: mnsenaterepublicans.com/statement-from…

Majority Leader Ryan Winkler we are better than this. #mnleg #Insulin4all

We just passed an important bill that guarantees those workers on the front lines will be eligible for expedited workers' comp if they contract #COVID19 on the job. Read more: mnsenaterepublicans.com/senator-lang-o…

Finding EMTs, paramedics, and other health care workers to provide ambulance transfers is becoming a significant challenge for many communities. Today we unanimously passed my bill that begins to address the problem. mnsenaterepublicans.com/minnesota-sena…

ATTN SMALL BUSINESS: MN DEED started taking applications TODAY for grants to businesses affected by COVID-19. We passed this bill this week. More than $60 million in grant funding is available for small businesses across Minnesota. Learn more & apply here: bit.ly/3hCAkGG

The Legislature approved their fair share of the funding for the Veterans homes in 2018, and in 2019 we approved plans to spend federal grant funds for construction. The federal funding was the last piece needed to get these homes built. mnsenaterepublicans.com/senator-andrew…

We need to keep our elections safe and secure. We can protect the election process and ensure EVERY Minnesotan that wants the chance to vote has their voice counted. We can do this simply by implementing provisional ballots and common sense Voter ID laws.

Today is a day to show gratitude to our current officers, while also honoring the lives of fallen officers that have died in the line of duty. To those who serve or have served previously, thank you for all you have done to keep our communities safe.

Thank you to Brian Bollig for welcoming me and State Senator Andrew Lang to his businesses today, located on the @MinnWestTech Campus in Willmar—a center of innovation and economic growth in my district.

Brian started Bollig Engineering to help rural communities with their infrastructure needs, and the majority of their projects are in #mn07. All of them are important, but I especially appreciate Bollig’s work in helping the Northwest Angle establish an airport.

We also visited Mr. B’s Chocolates, a renowned chocolatier that imports the best chocolate from Belgium to craft wonderful truffles, caramels, chocolate bars, and other treats.

SOURCES: Final #mnleg deal on Public Safety was cut between Paul Gazelka and Melissa Hortman - gave House DFL 2 more provisions in the bill, Senate agreed to them - that meant July 1st end to Governor Tim Walz powers, which House DFL agreed to. #mnleg ended Walz powers not Walz.

My district office staff attended the groundbreaking ceremony for the Montevideo Veterans Home today. I was sad to miss it due to votes in DC. A long time coming and a true community effort. Congrats to committee chair Marv Garbe and all area veterans. Thank you!
