We’ve heard a lot about fraud in Minnesota. But accountability for taxpayer dollars needs to apply everywhere, and not just to score political points.

@kare11 reported yesterday that a private prison company offered to sell its shuttered facility in Appleton for $75 million. ICE later purchased it for nearly $496 million, with our federal tax dollars. I will continue to say it: All fraud is bad fraud.

Four days until Election Day, and I've had some pretty loyal supporters cheering me on from home. Now let's get across the finish line. I hope I can count on your vote on November 3! #TrinaForCongress #MN08

Decisions made in Washington have consequences right here at home. Between energy costs and corporate tax breaks, federal policies shape what communities pay and who benefits.

The proposed Google data center in Hermantown raises important questions about transparency, energy costs, and whether local residents have a meaningful voice in decisions that affect their future.

As your representative in Congress, I will keep asking a basic question: Are we putting people and their communities first, or putting corporate interests ahead of them? Your vote on November 3 determines the type of representative you want showing up for you in Washington.

Pete has called Minnesota a failed state. But what does his own report card say about the job he’s doing in Congress? A voting record shows where a representative stands, what they prioritize, and who they stand with.

Northern and central Minnesota deserve a representative who answers to the people who live here. Take a look at Pete’s record and decide for yourself, then make a plan to vote by November 3! #TrinaForCongress #MN08

From rising healthcare premiums and hospital closures to the cost of gas and groceries, I’m hearing the same concerns across MN-08. People need a representative who understands what they’re facing, shows up to listen, and puts working people ahead of billionaires.

The Boundary Waters is one of Minnesota’s greatest treasures. We can support good-paying mining jobs and still recognize that some places are too unique to put at risk.

The Iron Range deserves more than a photo op. We need a representative who will fight to keep our mining jobs, our investment, and our economic future here in Minnesota.

I’m running to put our workers and communities ahead of corporate interests. Our minerals should mean good-paying jobs here at home, not billions in investments flowing to other states. #MN08 #TrinaForCongress

I'm honored to have the endorsement of John Kerry, former U.S. Secretary of State. At a time when integrity and leadership matter, I'm grateful to have his support for my campaign to represent Minnesota's 8th District.

I'm ready to bring that same commitment to public service to Congress and fight for the people of the northern and central Minnesota. Election Day is November 3. If you're ready for a representative who will show up, I hope I can count on your vote. #MN08 #TrinaForCongress

Proud to be featured in this group of women who are ready to show up and flip the House. But it won't happen without your vote! Make your plan to vote by November 3!

Pete Stauber talks about fighting for Minnesotans, but where is that focus when it comes to the issues affecting our daily lives? Rising costs, access to health care, good-paying jobs, and the future of our communities deserve attention from the person representing us in Congress

I spent 25 years in public service, and I know representation means being present, answering questions, and being accountable to the people who count on you. I’m running to give Minnesota’s 8th District a representative who shows up and gets to work. #TrinaForCongress #MN08
