Thank you Kaohly Vang Her for organizing this trip. This was a useful opportunity to hear from folks about issues directly affecting their pensions and retirement.

The Legislative Commission on Pensions and Retirement went on a road trip yesterday. In addition to hearing from folks about important issues affecting their pensions and retirement, I also got to see my BFF Chirla and my first-born. ❤️

K-9 units from St. Paul and Roseville stopped by to say hi after doing some training at our facility ⁦Saint Paul Police Department⁩ thanks for everything you do!

Proud to be named co-chair of the legislative EMS Task Force! As a paramedic, I know first-hand how critical the needs are in EMS. I look forward to getting to work and addressing these important issues. senatedfl.mn/speaker-hortma… (senatedfl.mn/speaker-hortma…)

Honored to attend the MHealth EMS open house and ceremony to honor Star of Life recipient, Marcia Anderson. It was also very cool to tour the mobile ECMO truck - an innovative way to bring this life-saving intervention to folks in the field.

Today is Election Day! Go vote. 🗳

Congratulations!

This Veteran’s Day I will be spending time listening to the stories of the Hmong men who served in the Secret War. TY to all the men & women who serve our great country whether our country recognizes it or not. Your service not only protects democracy at home but also abroad.

I am calling on the Minnesota DNR to work with the City of Lake Elmo Lake Elmo MN to resolve its water crisis. Delaying development which has been mandated by the Met Council is unacceptable. twincities.com/2023/11/17/lak…

Thank you Katie Bloome for an excellent tour of all the good things Belwin Conservancy is up to in my hometown of Afton! Belwin's conservation efforts and partnerships with SPPS and Tribal nations are impressive. Thank you, Belwin, for all you do!

nothing but respect for MY north star

Agreed.

If there's an upside to working a 13-hour shift as a paramedic on Thanksgiving, it's having a co-worker show up at the base at 6am with a stand mixer and supplies and declaring, "Today were making cookies!" #cookies #EMS

Minnesota boasts a large and thriving Hmong community! To my Hmong friends and colleagues, and to all those who celebrate, I wish you blessings and joy in the New Year!

What I love most about Cottage Grove MN is the small-town friendliness in everything they do. The Hometown Holiday Celebration was no exception! Thank you Mayor Myron Bailey, Justin Olsen Cottage Grove, Karla Bigham, and all the CG staff who worked so hard to make such a magical night happen!

Thank you PrairieIslandIndianCommunity for a wonderful tour of your community and a great discussion on how I can help partner with Tinta Wita in the Senate! And congratulations President Johnson on your leadership, and best wishes for your new chapter.

So happy to show off beautiful Hastings to my colleagues on the Senate Capital Investment Committee. The projects identified by the city are critical and must be funded this next session.
