Minnesota State Senator Zach Duckworth posted a series of messages on social media between July 18 and July 20, 2025, addressing both personal milestones and political developments in the state.

On July 18, Duckworth shared his thoughts on an ongoing political issue, writing: "No more politics, the jury has spoken - guilty. Time to finally do the right thing on behalf of Minnesota so we can move on and focus on the work of the people. There should be an immediate resignation. If not, our colleagues need to join us on another vote to expel." (posted July 18, 2025). The statement appears to reference a recent verdict affecting a member of Minnesota's legislature and calls for that individual’s resignation or potential expulsion by legislative peers.

Earlier that same day, Duckworth commented on local life with a brief message: "Beautiful night in Minnesota - life is good." (posted July 18, 2025).

On July 20, he marked a personal occasion by congratulating two acquaintances: "When the first LA (legislative assistant) you had the pleasure to work with gets married. Congrats Spencer and Allie! " (posted July 20, 2025).

Zach Duckworth serves as a member of the Minnesota State Senate. In recent years, legislative bodies across several states have faced increased scrutiny regarding ethics and accountability following high-profile legal cases involving elected officials.
