John,

Governors are often the first line of defense against Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans’ harmful agenda, including their so-called Big Beautiful Bill that made massive cuts to federal programs just to pay for more millionaire and billionaire tax breaks.

This bad budget will have devastating impacts on working families, children, seniors, veterans, and those with disabilities across the country. Here in Minnesota, experts say it will likely:

• Cause 450,000 Minnesotans, including 175,000 children and 75,000 seniors, to lose their SNAP benefits that help them put food on the table;
• Kill nearly 23,000 clean energy jobs and raise household energy bills by $2.7 billion or 28% over the next decade;
• Leave 170,000 people uninsured and kick 245,000 people off of Medicaid, while threatening the closure of rural hospitals and nursing homes.

While working folks will suffer from higher costs and taxes, the wealthiest top 4% of earners will see an average tax cut of $19,530, and the top 1% with annual incomes just under $1 million will get an average tax break of $52,370!

That’s not fair or right, and as Minnesota’s governor, you can count on me to fight these cruel cuts from Washington and do what I can to lessen their impacts on you and your families every chance I get.

But if I’m going to do that, I need to win reelection next year — and that’s going to take grassroots support from every part of the state. Will you have my back by pitching in 10 or more to fuel our campaign today?
