Inspiring to hear from Steve Simon + Angie Craig at the DFL CD2 Gala last night: I appreciate their bold leadership advocating to protect our voting rights and calling for support on the Build Back Better Plan. Let's fully fund our communities so we all can thrive‼✊ #MN02

It's a beautiful day to encourage your US Senator to push Build Back Better across the finish line. Remember that in 2022 all seats on the state level (MN) are up for reelection. We're stronger when we're united around our shared values! ISAIAH Amy Klobuchar Tina Smith

Ultimately government is how we take care of one another. When we're rooted in hope and possibility, and we're clear about what's at stake, we can build resiliency and act strategically. Thanks to ISAIAH for grounding us all. #FundOurLives #FundOurFutures

Thx to ACS CAN Minnesota I'll be testifying in the MN House Health Finance & Policy committee about my experience with palliative care, care that helped me reach survivorship. We need to fund the MN Palliative Care Advisory Council to identify barriers & increase public awareness. #mnleg

"Palliative care has helped me reach where I am now—a cancer survivor. When I look back at the care that I received, I am grateful I felt like I was treated like a whole human, and not just a patient." Thank you for sharing your story, Kelly! #mnleg

Fantastic session updates in a Zoom today with Sen. Liz Boldon and Rep. Todd Lippert, courtesy ISAIAH. Today was the first committee deadline! Crucial to remember that "surplus" is a misnomer, we have people and programs that still need funding. #FundOurLives #FundOurFutures #mnleg

Today's the day! I’m joining childhood cancer advocates from across the country for #ActionDay2022 to ask Congress to fund childhood cancer research, support the Accelerating Kids' Access to Care Act, and reauthorize the Childhood Cancer STAR Act. #takethatmedulloblastoma

This morning I was voter number 16 at the Pine Island MN Fire Department. Polls are open until 8pm tonight (8/9/22). Go make your voice heard‼️🗳 Together we're #pineislandstrong #votevotevote

Spent my Sunday meeting w MNs in Winona & Red Wing. With just 37 more days to go, Minnesotans understand all that is on the line this Nov. and are fired up to elect leaders committed to protecting their rights, safety & pocketbooks. Join the fight ➡️ mobilize.us/keithellison

The power of stories from patients + survivors rung loud and clear at the ACS CAN Minnesota Research and Innovation Forum at the Sleep Number headquarters in Minneapolis today. I'm encouraged to know we're not in this fight alone and honored to volunteer alongside fellow advocates 🎗✊️

Members of Minnesota FCCLA shadowed legislators today, sharpening their communication and leadership skills while educating elected officials about the importance of Family and Consumer Sciences. I was invited to briefly speak about my public service experience as an alumni. #mnleg

For many, reproductive freedom also includes abortion, which is essential healthcare. I'm urging Senators @JohnHoffmanMN, Nick Frentz, Grant Hauschild, Rob Kupec and Bobby Joe Champion to vote YES on the PRO Act, codifying abortion rights into state law. #mnleg Pro-Choice MN

The fact that Steve Drazkowski is reeling off a list of medical procedures he can't pronounce and doesn't understand is a good self-own for why legislators shouldn't dictate medical practice #mnleg

The first conversation I had with my oncologist, we were just talking about his experiences as a doctor (which...awesome, it was very good to get know him a bit) and I ended up asking if people ever decide to not follow his advice. He said yes, and he looked very sad and then he

Happy Labor Day! Thx to our elected officials for joining in today's parade + to members of the LAX community for their enthusiastic support. We know we're stronger together united around our shared progressive values. To hear about upcoming events, visit laxdems.com/keep-in-touch

Wisconsin needs a palliative care advisory council! @SenStroebel Senator Julian Bradley Sen. Dan Feyen SenKeldaRoys.bsky.social @SenatorAgard hold a vote on SB 703 and vote yes!

A Wisconsin fake elector named Bill Feehan, who used to serve as GOP Chair of La Crosse County, ran for County Board. Tonight, @KellyLeibold—brain cancer survivor and community leader—defeated Bill Feehan for County Board District 1. A win for democracy. Congrats!

I stand with American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network in urging Rep. Derrick Van Orden Press Office to #ProtectMedicaid because many of his constituents--veterans, seniors, students--needed healthcare at a critical time in their life. Medicaid made it possible for me to finish my cancer treatments. Make your voice heard on this issue!
