My office and my fellow AGs across the nation have been fighting this administration's attacks on our most basic rights and critical services that millions of families rely on.
Tonight, I'm honored to be able to hear from New Yorkers to help us continue to protect the people.

Our Medical Debt Reset initiative has helped 32,000+ Saint Paulites get out from under crippling medical debt—one of the most common barriers to health care. It’s time to remove this barrier for all Minnesotans. Thank you for your advocacy, @AGEllison, Sen. Boldon, and Rep Reyer.
BREAKING: Sen. Boldon, Rep. Reyer, and I just announced a bill that will erase an estimated $500 million in medical debt for Minnesotans.
It's called the Minnesota Medical Debt Reset Act.
All it takes is a $5 million investment. Here's how it works 🧵 #mnleg

Thank you to @NSmithholt12 and the fierce Minnesota insulin advocates who fought Big Pharma and won. Everyone in our state should be able to afford the medications they need to thrive. Thanks to @AGEllison and many others, we have more momentum than ever. Let's keep going! #mnleg
BREAKING: The biggest 3 insulin manufacturers have all agreed to cut prices in MN to just $35 after my office sued them. This is tremendous news.
To learn how you can get $35 insulin, with or without insurance, visit MNInsulin35.org and help spread the word.

This was my bill! As a former high school teacher and a mom of four, it was frustrating to see products like this circulating in our schools. Thankful that Minnesota is stepping up to put a stop to it. #mnleg

1. Illegal repair restrictions can be devastating for farmers, who rely on affordable & timely repairs to harvest their crops.
Today @FTC, joined by @ILAttyGeneral & @AGEllison, sued @JohnDeere for restricting farmers’ ability to fix their equipment.

If you paid your debt to society, an old, non-violent conviction should not stop you from finding a job and giving back to your community.
That's why my office is hosting an expungement clinic at the Prairie Island Indian Community Center on Sept 24.

SCAM ALERT: Fake text messages pretending to be from Minnesota E-ZPass suggesting you owe money for a recent journey and asking you to follow a payment link. This is a scam! This happens more often during busy holiday travel times nationwide. Learn more: bit.ly/3Mr9zpl

Today’s @CFPB actions are a first step to put an end to contract-for-deed tricks and traps that trade on fears about the availability of affordable homes, limited housing inventory, and unfair lending to rob families of their savings.

Thank you to @SenTinaSmith, @AGEllison, and @LtGovFlanagan and all those who joined today’s @CFPB field hearing to share their stories. Your support and insight will help us ensure that the dream of homeownership doesn’t turn into a nightmare.

Thanks to the Debt Fairness Act, we have more just system for repaying debt than we did before.
Minnesotans won't be denied medical care when they fall behind on hospital bills.
There's more work to be done, but this is an important step forward. #mnleg

The fact Sen @LizBoldonMN and Rep Liz Reyer introduced this bill in February and saw it thru to law just 4 months later tells you just how important this is. This is a big step forward in helping more Minnesotans afford their lives—and we’re not done yet. ag.state.mn.us/Office/Commun…

Our debt systems shouldn’t drive people further into debt or poverty. No one should be turned away from medical care because of medical debt. The Debt Fairness Act fixes these and other - problems. I fought hard for it and I’m proud @GovTimWalz signed it into law today.
Attorney General Keith Ellison retweeted
Delighted to see our Attorney General @AGEllison taking decisive action against predatory scams masquerading as 'culturally responsive' practices. Families impacted deserve justice.
