Hello —

With everything that’s going on in Washington right now, my top priority is making sure I’m fighting for you and your interests in the U.S. Senate.

You see, I’m a firm believer that good listeners make good leaders. That’s why I want to make sure I’m hearing your stories and understanding the issues that matter most to you so that we can fight for real progress together.

To do that most effectively, I send around these surveys because it’s important that I hear directly from you. I wish we could sit down over a cup of coffee (or tea!), but this is the next best way for me to get your input.

Can you take a minute (or two, tops!) to fill out my quick 2021 Priorities Survey and let me know what’s on your mind? I want to make sure I’m fighting for your priorities in Washington — and honestly, one of my favorite parts of the job is reading your responses.

My parents raised me to believe that to be a true part of your community, it’s not enough just to keep your lawn nice or say “Hi!” at the grocery store. You need to actually listen to each other and work together to solve problems. That’s a value I've tried to instill in my kids.

You know, most people who have never been to Minnesota know us for our weather. But Minnesotans are better known for listening to each other. Even when they disagree, folks are willing to respect each others' opinions.

As I have always seen it, if you really listen to people, you’ll find everybody has a story worth hearing. Everybody has a problem worth working to solve. And when it comes to making big decisions as a community, everyone deserves a seat at the table.

So, I’m asking you to join me at the table. Help me do a better job of standing up for folks like you by filling out my quick 2021 Priorities Survey. Your feedback is important to me.

There's a lot to accomplish together, especially once Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are sworn in next month. That's why it's so important to hear from you right now.

Thanks for weighing in. I’ll be in touch soon.
