I helped secure $263,000 in federal funding through a USDA grant to help the Minnesota Valley Electric Co-Op purchase a new ambulance for the city of Montgomery.
 
I’ll keep working to bring federal tax dollars back to through investments that make our communities safer.

My bipartisan bill to stop improper Medicaid payments with Gus Bilirakis just passed the Health Subcommittee with support from Republicans and Democrats!

This is a common sense way to reduce government spending – I'll keep pushing to get it passed through Congress.

Today in Energy & Commerce Democrats, we’re working on legislation – like my LIVE Beneficiaries Act – to cut down on wasteful government spending while working to lower health care costs for Minnesotans.

This year, we lost 3 first responders in a senseless act of violence in Burnsville, but the use of a tactical vehicle saved additional tragedy.

Today, I’m introducing a bill to remove restrictions on the use of federal funds for these life-saving vehicles.m.startribune.com/angie-craig-bi…

Capitol Police officers work hard to keep Members of Congress & visitors to the Capitol Building safe – I stopped by to thank them for their brave service.

I'll always fight to ensure Capitol Police officers have what they need to keep themselves, visitors, staff & Members safe.

I led the call for President Biden to use every tool at his disposal– including executive action – to secure our southern border. This is a step in the right direction, but I’ll keep working with both parties to fix our broken immigration system.

I’m in Northfield to recognize the nearly $4 million dollars in federal funding I secured with Mayor Rhonda Pownell for the construction of a new Water Treatment Facility, which will help ensure Minnesotans can access clean, safe drinking water.
