Marie Kruse recently received the 2026 Outstanding Teacher Award from Minnesota Agriculture in the Classroom and the Excellence in Teaching About Agriculture Award from the National Agriculture in the Classroom organization. Ag educators play a critical role in our schools, and it was an honor for my team to present Marie with a flag and certificate in recognition of her accomplishments and passion for teaching future generations about the importance of agriculture.

I am proud to introduce the Veteran Burial Benefit Correction Act alongside Rep. Kelly Morrison to increase and standardize burial and funeral benefits for veterans who die from service-connected disabilities. Those who have died from injuries sustained in defense of our nation deserve to have their legacies and memories honored, and this legislation will ensure their families have consistent coverage to do so.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congressman Brad Finstad (MN-01) and Congresswoman Kelly Morrison (MN-03) introduced the Veteran Burial Benefit Correction Act, legislation which increases and standardizes burial and funeral benefits for veterans who die from service-connected disabilities.

The Rochester area recently received $13.3 million for community projects, including a $1.2 million federal investment I helped secure to construct a roundabout on 4th Street in Rochester. I recently visited the site to see the progress being made and the positive impact it will have on the community firsthand. I’m proud to support infrastructure investments that improve safety and strengthen southern Minnesota.

Rochester celebrated a trio of federally supported projects Tuesday, drawing all three of the city’s congressional delegates to town.

My legislation, the GRAIN DRY Act, was included in the 2026 Farm Bill to enhance farmers’ access to propane supplies. I joined Lakes Gas in Essig to get a better understanding of their propane fuel operations and hear how they work to supply the propane that folks in need for drying corn, heating barns and homes, and fueling school buses and fleet vehicles. Thank you for having me!

As the State of Minnesota continues to prevent the U.S. Department of Agriculture from auditing its SNAP rolls, an individual has been charged with traveling across state lines to Rochester and stealing nearly $50,000 in assistance meant to support Minnesotans in need. We must continue federal oversight and enforcement, ensuring justice is served to those who defraud our taxpayer-funded programs.
