I’m the only Senator to have worked at Planned Parenthood

  Hello — Yesterday, Donald Trump announced his nominee to replace Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Supreme Court — far-right, anti-choice judge Amy Coney Barrett. Look, I don't need to tell you that Supreme Court decisions can have a profound effect on our daily lives. We need an i…

Voting is already underway

  Mitch McConnell’s shameless power grab and blatant disregard for our democracy is disgusting. By trying to ram through Donald Trump’s far-right, anti-choice Supreme Court nominee in an election year — with voting already underway! — McConnell and Senate Republicans are breaking the …

There hasn’t been enough time

  Hello — I am about to ask you to make a contribution to my re-election campaign. There’s a lot going on in Washington, so I hope you'll give me the opportunity to share why I'm asking right now. Thank you in advance. A lot of things will change today. President Trump will announce h…

Friday

  Next week, we’re facing the most important FEC fundraising deadline we’ve faced yet. That’s not an exaggeration. Here’s why: GOP dark money groups and conservative billionaires want to kick Tina Smith out of the U.S. Senate, which explains why they’re spending an obscene amount of m…

Nate Silver’s FiveThirtyEight reports:

  A recent report from Nate Silver’s FiveThirtyEight says, “Democrats are slightly favored to win the Senate.” And while that’s exciting news, we can’t forget the keyword: slightly. The report goes on to say, “The map is wide open, with at least a dozen competitive races...including s…

Donald Trump, Mike Pence, and our right-wing opponent team up

  Hello — The Trump administration is going ALL-IN to flip Minnesota red. Last week, Donald Trump was in town and he personally attacked Tina Smith. This time, they’re sending Mike Pence to rally the right-wing base in our state and boost our Republican opponent. The White House, corp…

A personal request

  Today, Mike Pence will be campaigning in Minneapolis. Minnesota is a top target for Republicans in this election. Donald Trump only lost the state by 1.5 points in 2016. But Minnesota is a must-win state for Democrats in order to take back the Senate and win the White House. With th…

Trump came back to Minnesota and attacked Tina again

The president’s latest attack on me

Heck

  This is big — a recent NBC analysis says: “If Trump can flip Minnesota, he could lose Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania to Joe Biden and still get re-elected if he holds the rest of his 2016 victories.” Our state has the potential to decide who wins the presidency, which is why …

Another personal attack from Trump

  Well, I saw this coming... Trump attacked me again at his Minnesota rally on Friday — just as two consecutive polls show our Senate race in a statistical tie. This isn’t the first time Trump has attacked me publicly, and there’s a snowball’s chance in hell it will be the last. I’m n…
