NEW: I just signed the education bill into law – expanding access to pre-k, improving literacy, and feeding kids.

We’re making progress this legislative session to make Minnesota the best state in the country for kids. Let’s keep going!

Tonight we reached an agreement that gives rideshare drivers a 20% raise and keeps these important services operating in Minnesota. I’m grateful to our partners in the House and Senate DFL for coming together to get this done.

Yesterday, I signed the Minnesota Voting Rights Act into law – prohibiting standards that would deny or limit any citizen’s right to vote based on their race, color, or language.
 
We're protecting our democratic processes to keep Minnesota’s elections safe, free, and fair.

Censorship has no place in our libraries. As a former teacher, I’m clear: We need to remember our history, not erase it.
 
Today, I signed a bill into law putting an end to book bans based on ideology in Minnesota.

Zebra mussels threaten Minnesota’s lakes and wetlands – which is why our aquatic invasive species experts will be working across the state, all summer long, to keep our waters clean.
 
I’m grateful for their work to protect the land of 10,000 lakes.

Tonight, we came together to honor the fallen peace officers who made the ultimate sacrifice to protect their neighbors. We will never forget these heroes.

It was great to be at Prairie Island Indian Community yesterday to learn about their priorities and initiatives. Government-to-government meetings with our Tribal partners are key to making Minnesota the best place in the nation for Tribal-state relations.

We’re going to bat to save Minnesota families money, and that starts with expanding access to child care.

Today, I announced $6 million in child care grants – the largest-ever round – to create over 2,200 child care slots across the state.

On Peace Officers Memorial Day, and during Police Week, we pause to remember the peace officers who gave their lives to protect ours.

Our state is grateful for your service to, and sacrifice for, our communities.

In Minnesota, we’re empowering employers to grow their businesses.
 
Companies like Polar Semiconductor, who just announced their plans to expand, are taking note and creating the jobs of the future right here at home.
