  2. It was a true joy to be there as my good friend and former colleague Gabby Giffords received the Aspen Institute's Henry Crown Leadership Award. She continues to be an inspiration and it was great to see her receive this much deserved recognition.

  3. Minnesota is home to some of the most dynamic medical technology start-ups. But, the new medical device tax threatens our state's - and our nation's - leadership in this important field.

    Earlier this year, my legislation to repeal the dan...
    gerous tax passed with overwhelming bipartisan support in the House - including the entire Minnesota delegation.

    Now it's time the U.S. Senate acted to ensure our country continues to lead the world in creating life-saving, and life-improving, medical technology.

  9. Due to Hurricane Sandy, my Washington, D.C. office will be closed today, Monday, October 29th. If you need assistance, please call my Eden Prairie office at (952) 405-8510. My thoughts and prayers go out to all those in the path of this incredible storm.
  10. Today, I marked the 150th anniversary of railroads in Minnesota with a tour of BNSF Railway’s Northtown yard and diesel locomotive shop.

    Railway is a vital link between made-in-Minnesota goods and consumers around the nation and world.

  11. Our community can take pride in the innovative small businesses that choose to call Minnesota home, creating jobs for our neighbors, friends, and family members. Today, I had the chance to visit Brooklyn Center's Surley Brewing Company - a start up that has grown into a Minnesota institution.

    I will continue to work to ensure government is a partner - not a roadblock - for our small business job creators.
