John,

Today, I filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration to stop its outrageous attempt to seize the private data of Minnesotans who receive help to feed themselves and their families.

The administration is demanding that states hand over sensitive personal information about millions of SNAP recipients—including their Social Security numbers and home addresses. If we refuse, they’re threatening to withhold critical SNAP funding, which over 400,000 Minnesotans rely on to put food on the table.

This is a direct threat to Minnesotans’ privacy. Federal and state laws prohibit sharing SNAP data unless it’s strictly necessary—and this is anything but. That’s why I joined a coalition of 22 states to take the Trump administration to court and stop this thinly veiled attempt to seize personal information that could be weaponized to target immigrants and other vulnerable communities.

This isn’t the first time I’ve stepped up to defend your right to privacy. Earlier this year, I sued the Trump administration to block Elon Musk and his so-called DOGE team from accessing sensitive information. And starting this Thursday, my office will begin enforcing the Minnesota Consumer Data Privacy Act—a new law that gives Minnesotans greater freedom to control their data.

I won’t let anyone violate your right to privacy or exploit sensitive information for their own nefarious purposes.

But I need your help as well, John. We have less than 48 hours to reach our end-of-month fundraising goal, and we’re still $14,652 short.

Will you give $10, $25, $50, or any amount today to help me stop the Trump administration and fight for Minnesotans’ privacy?
