"I plan to keep building bridges of understanding in Minnesota and throughout the U.S. to bring us closer
together. As I get to know people everywhere in our state, I see kindness and generosity, and a
willingness to seek understanding and acceptance of what makes us who we are. In these times, there
are so many people looking for ways to fight for a more just, loving, and peaceful world united in diversity."

"Even as our democracy faces an assault unlike anything we've
seen in our lifetimes, we have to remember that our system works
when people who care about the United States stand up and
participate. My daily challenge to myself is to be part of the
solution, to be a joyful warrior in the battle for the soul of the
country. My challenge to you is to join that effort. Let's not throw
up our hands when it's time to roll up our sleeves. Because years
from now, this moment will have passed. And our children and our
grandchildren will ask us where we were when the stakes were so
high. They will ask us what it was like. I don't want us to just tell
them how we felt. I want us to tell them what we did."
