Legislative Update
Dear Friends and Neighbors,
After what felt like the world’s longest winter, spring is finally showing signs of life—and I, for one, am here for it! The fresh breeze, longer days, and a few brave tulips popping up have brought a renewed energy that’s hard to beat. (Is it just me, or does everything feel a little more possible when the sun’s out?)
It’s been a refreshing week back in the district. I’ve had the chance to catch up with constituents, visit a few local spots, and hear firsthand what matters most to you. These conversations are what fuel my work and keep me grounded in the real-life challenges and hopes of our communities.
Now, it’s time to bring that energy back to the Capitol. There’s a lot left on the table, and I’m committed to finding real, practical solutions that serve Minnesotans well. Let’s keep the momentum going—we’re not done yet!
A Season of Reflection, Renewal, and Hope!
 As we enter this special season marked by both Easter and Passover, I want to take a moment to share in the spirit of reflection, renewal, and gratitude that these holidays bring.
Easter reminds us of the hope and redemption found through faith—that even in our darkest moments, there is the promise of new life. Passover speaks to liberation and perseverance, the story of a people guided by faith and delivered from hardship. Both holidays are powerful testaments to resilience, grace, and the enduring strength of the human spirit.
In our busy lives, it can be easy to lose sight of the deeper meaning of these moments. But this season calls us to pause, to give thanks for the blessings we’ve been given, and to recommit ourselves to serving others with love and compassion.
As your representative, I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to serve such a thoughtful and resilient community. Your voices and values inspire me every day.
Whether you're celebrating around a Seder table or gathering for an Easter meal, I wish you and your family peace, joy, and renewed hope in the days ahead!
Looking Ahead!
As we welcome the new season and all the fresh starts it brings, I want to remind you that my door is always open. Your thoughts, concerns, and ideas are incredibly important—they help guide the work I do on your behalf at the Capitol.
Whether you have a question about a specific bill, want to share feedback, or are just looking to stay informed, don’t hesitate to reach out. My office is here for you, and I’m always happy to listen.
It’s a true honor to represent District 18A, and as we move into this season of growth and renewal, I look forward to continuing our work together to make Minnesota a better place for all.
Wishing you a joyful and hope-filled spring!
Warmly,
Representative Erica Schwartz
Minnesota House of Representatives, District 18A
