Last week, Senator Tina Smith announced that she will not seek re-election to the U.S. Senate in 2026. While we will miss her leadership, we want to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude for her years of service—especially her unwavering commitment to rural Minnesota.   From standing up for reproductive rights to her tireless advocacy for farmers and small-town businesses, Senator Smith has always been a leader on broadband expansion, mental health resources, and rural infrastructure. She understands that a strong Minnesota means investing in every corner of the state, not just the metro areas.   As a former Lieutenant Governor, U.S. Senator, and lifelong organizer, she has fought for policies that uplift working families, expand access to healthcare, and ensure that rural voices are heard at the highest levels of government. Her work on agriculture and economic development has left a lasting impact, and her leadership will be deeply missed.   We thank Senator Smith for her service, her dedication, and her belief in the power of rural communities. We look forward to seeing what she does next and know that her work to make Minnesota a better place is far from over.

As we reflect on this election season, we want to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of our endorsed candidates. Your hard work, dedication, and passion for serving your communities have been truly inspiring. Win or lose, your efforts have brought important issues to the forefront and strengthened the voice of rural Minnesota. Thank you for stepping up, leading with courage, and working tirelessly to make a difference. Together, we continue to build a brighter future for all Minnesotans. With gratitude, The DFL Rural Caucus
