President Jimmy Carter was one of our nation’s most dedicated public servants and a tireless advocate for working people. He taught generations of Americans what it means to give back to your community. May his dedication to our country be an inspiration for years to come.

President Carter defined what it means to be a servant leader. He fought for our democracy, our climate, humanity, and civil rights around the world. We can find peace today knowing that he is reunited with the love his life, Rosalynn.

This order is illegal, let's start there. It will be challenged in court. But not only that—it appears to halt funding for police departments, counter-terrorism, and counter drug-trafficking programs. This is making us unsafe.

We have received word from two #MN02 cities that they have been notified by DOJ that their COPS grants to local law enforcement have been put on hold. Withholding critical funding approved by Congress to hire police officers makes #MN02 communities less safe.

It only took one week for Donald Trump to plunge us into a national crisis.
