Wisconsin’s law is from 1849
Arizona’s is from 1864

We cannot give up. Especially not now. Amy Klobuchar 1 week ago:   Friday Jun 24 - 10:32am This opinion doesn’t bring us back to the 1950s. It brings us back to the 1850s. Amy Klobuchar 1 week ago:   Friday Jun 24 - 10:22am What the Supreme Court just did is an outrage. A woman has a right to make her own health care choices choices. From now until November, we fight. Amy Klobuchar 1 week ago:   Friday Jun 24 - 10:09am Finally!

And you wonder why I wanted to pass the Freedom to Vote Act. Amy Klobuchar 1 week ago:   Tuesday Jun 21 - 12:50pm Last week, the Senate passed a historic bill for our servicemembers and veterans. It included my bipartisan bill to make sure veterans exposed to toxic substances like burn pits receive the medical care and benefits they deserve. That’s a huge step forward. Amy Klobuchar 1 week ago:   Tuesday Jun 21 - 9:57am Monopolies and duopolies are causing shortages. Multinational shipping conglomerates and Big Tech companies are making it harder for small businesses to compete. It's simple: our antitrust laws need an overhaul. Our economy needs competition, we’ve got to fight for it.

Amy Klobuchar 1 week ago:   Saturday Jun 18 - 1:31pm If you’re an eligible voter, you should automatically be registered to vote when you turn 18. Period. Amy Klobuchar 1 week ago:   Saturday Jun 18 - 11:31am The infant formula crisis shined a light on another underlying one: the dangerous rise of consolidation. To prevent shortages like this from happening again, we need to get to the root of the problem. We have to modernize antitrust laws. Amy Klobuchar 1 week ago:   Friday Jun 17 - 7:37pm Threats against election workers are rising. They MUST be taken seriously.

We finished the job. Those votes were counted. Amy Klobuchar 2 weeks ago:   Thursday Jun 16 - 10:02pm Liz Cheney from today’s hearing about Mike Pence on the evening of January 6th:
"He did his duty. President Trump, unequivocally, did not." Amy Klobuchar 2 weeks ago:   Thursday Jun 16 - 8:59pm The chokehold foreign-owned shipping companies have on American exporters is driving up prices and causing supply chain issues.

Thank you to Sen. Thune, Reps. Garamendi and Johnson for their work on this. Businesses deserve to get their goods to market without being forced to pay exorbitant prices. Amy Klobuchar 2 weeks ago:   Thursday Jun 16 - 12:26pm Every single year, the price of two of the blood-thinning medications that millions of Americans need to prevent strokes have risen. Now they're so expensive many people can no longer afford them. Just one example of why it is so critical we act to lower drug prices. Amy Klobuchar 2 weeks ago:   Thursday Jun 16 - 10:45am Foreign-owned shipping companies' profits have skyrocketed off the backs of American businesses being forced to pay exorbitantly to ship goods, leading to higher prices for consumers.
It's time to do something about it. Our bipartisan shipping bill is headed to the POTUS' desk. https://t.co/opuddLciQd

Reforming our antitrust laws. Why? Because our economy should actually work for Americans, not just mega-corporations and monopolies. Amy Klobuchar 2 weeks ago:   Wednesday Jun 15 - 9:59am Something that Big Pharma was able to lobby into law: a ban on Medicare negotiating lower drug prices. Removing that would directly benefit tens of millions of seniors and save taxpayer money. It's time to stop listening to lobbyists and lift the ban. Amy Klobuchar 2 weeks ago:   Tuesday Jun 14 - 8:19pm Businesses support our bill because it’s PRO-business. Only Big Tech seems to have an issue with that.

It’s been six years, and our nation is still reeling from mass shootings. Inaction has to end. Amy Klobuchar 2 weeks ago:   Saturday Jun 11 - 6:33pm The ACA tax credits included in the American Rescue Plan have saved Minnesota families thousands. That’s more money for groceries, rent, and gas.
