    Jul 30, 2020

That faltering economy, pressured by a resurgence of the virus, has heightened the need for Congress to continue providing significant financial aid, Powell said. Members of the House and Senate are...

    Jul 30, 2020

    ST PAUL - Yesterday marked the three year anniversary of the day Senator John McCain joined with Senate Democrats and voted against repealing the Affordable Care Act, temporarily saving the landmark legislation responsible for providing affordable health care for millions of Minnesotans. After failing in Congress, Donald Trump turned to the courts to continue his relentless push to repeal the ACA with no replacement plan. If Trump succeeds in overturning the ACA, Minnesotans across the board would suffer the consequences. More than 2 million Mi...
