    88 percent of the American people support capping credit card interest rates. They are sick and tired of being ripped off by Wall Street banks that are making record profits. Working together, we will end their greed.

    Delta told employees to buy video games instead of forming a union. What a disgrace. Delta's CEO made nearly $22 million in 2017 while paying ramp agents as little as $9/hour. I say to Delta: Stop trying to undercut workers' right to form a union and negotiate for better wages.

    Most states now make marijuana legal in some form, but federal law hasn't caught up, so most banks won't provide financial services to legal cannabis-related businesses. That has to change. I joined 32 other AGs to support a bill to allow banks to do so.

    Many thx to Bev Heydinger, former PUC chair & Deputy MNAG, for her months of volunteer service to my office. When we first started, Bev knew just what to do to get wheels moving & things on track. Now she's returning to regular life. Very grateful for her selfless public service.

    Wage theft is real & in MN it's still not classified a crime. Encouraged there's bipartisan support for protecting low-wage workers by changing that. Grateful to GOP Sen and DFL for working w me & w workers. We can do this.

    PSA for folks who haven’t had consistent healthcare/doctors: Get your Tetanus vaccine booster! You’re supposed to get them every 10 yrs as an adult - I just got mine bc I didn’t have insurance for a bit. My shot also included a whooping cough booster bc of recent outbreaks.

    Scammers are getting better at scamming all the time. Now they’re using caller ID & text spoofing + robocalls to rip people off. That’s why I joined & 41 other AGs today to ask to adopt tougher rules against them. This has to stop.
