Senator Amy Klobuchar

The endorsement wasn’t by acclamation, as Klobuchar no doubt desired. More than half of the delegates were first-time attendees, younger and more progressive-leaning than a typical year.

The senior senator released over 40 proposals to both eradicate fraud and streamline how services are delivered to Minnesotans.

Klobuchar's haul is over six times larger than that of GOP candidates Rep. Lisa Demuth and Kendall Qualls.

Klobuchar visited with Conservation Corps members, local and state fire officials and others during a follow-up on recovery from a devastating wind storm in June 2025.

Klobuchar planned to launch her campaign Jan. 26, 2026, but she delayed it after federal agents shot and killed Alex Pretti a few days prior.

The Lake Winnibigoshish Land Exchange Act, introduced by Rep. Pete Stauber, grants a land swap between the Chippewa National Forest and Bowen Lodge near Deer River.

The projects are among 15 in Northern Minnesota included in Senate appropriations legislation that now goes to the House of Representatives for a vote.

The need to expand services continues to grow as cuts to Medicaid and Medicare threaten the stability of rural hospitals, which already run on thin margins.

Klobuchar also joined KAXE to talk about the fight to protect federal funding for public media, emphasizing the critical role community radio and TV play in rural places.
