This week marked Trump’s first 100 days in the Presidential office. Trump’s term thus far has been catastrophic for working families across the country who rely on federal funding and programs to keep schools strong, families healthy, and an economy they can afford to participate in. 

​During the address, the Governor delivered a powerful message: Minnesota will not be dragged down by the chaos emanating from Donald Trump’s federal actions and Minnesota conservatives complicity. Trump and Minnesota conservatives plan to gut essential programs that Minnesotans rely on, like Medicaid, while cutting taxes for billionaires is not just reckless – it’s hurting working families across the state. In his speech, Governor Walz reaffirmed his commitment to protecting Minnesotans and continuing to build a state that protects and prioritizes everyone – not just the wealthy and corporations.

In a devastating move for working families across the country and in Minnesota, Donald Trump  announced a sweeping set of new tariffs on imported goods. These tariffs are among the largest in U.S. history, and economists warn they could cost the average American up to $3,800 per year in higher prices.
