Has the Minnesota executive branch taken over the Minnesota House of Representatives? It's bad enough that House Democrats have chosen to shut down Minnesota government by not showing up for work. Now, to top it off, the Democrat controlled executive branch, through the

The Minnesota Supreme Court ruled today that 68 is a quorum for the Minnesota House. This means a quorum is based on the number of chairs in the chamber and not the actual number of seated members. I am very concerned about the implications for our government in the future where

I sit on both MN House education committees. YES IT DOES. Law: must be available to “all menstruating students in restrooms regularly used by students in grades 4 to 12...” The DFL made it clear in committee that “boys menstruate.” Mandatory: boys, girls, and gender-neutral

This is Bill Anderson from Bricelyn, MN. He's my new hero! Not only is Bill a 97-year-old veteran who served on the USS Yorktown aircraft carrier as an 18-year-old in World War II, he's also the vigilant voter who downloaded his sample 23A Faribault County ballot yesterday

Faribault County 23A voters: No, I have NOT switched over to the Democrat Party despite what the error on your ballot says. I have always been, and will continue to be, a Republican who will fight for your rights and freedoms! BENNETT NEWS RELEASE: house.mn.gov/members/profil…

There is no way that Minnesota taxpayers should be on the hook for this payment! Unreal!

Mpls teachers union president at strike rally: “Our fight is against patriarchy” and “capitalism.” Good teachers don’t want to be social justice warriors. Stop pitting teachers against parents and let teachers teach!

Notice that this fear mongering post does not include a link or reference to the actual bill that Republicans are seeking to advance. If referenced, people would actually know the truth that the legislation being referenced is HF24, the "Born Alive" act, which used to be in

The MNGOP wants to turn Minnesota into Mississippi. We're working to ensure they can't.

Title IX was passed into law when I was in the 9th grade. When I was a senior in high school, I got to play basketball on the first ever girls' basketball team in my high school. The girls and women of my generation and the generations before fought hard to have their own sports.

All the education talk seems to be about things like menstrual products, book bans, and free lunches for all. What we should really be debating is whether Governor Walz’s education policies are actually working in our classrooms. Since Walz began leading Minnesota, reading

Addressing government waste and the fraudulent theft of our tax dollars should be a bipartisan issue. We should be doing all we can to fix this serious Minnesota problem. Very frustrating.

This program has been destined for a disaster since it was rammed through by the DFL trifecta. It's going to destroy our state's small employers, gut rural Minnesota, and drag down people who cannot afford this expensive payroll tax. It needs to be shelved immediately and

The Walz Administration just confirmed that the payroll tax for the DFL's paid time off program will be 25% higher than originally anticipated. This is an unexpected $300 million tax increase on Minnesota's businesses and workers. The bill will now take over $1.5 billion from

Evidently, I'm just a weak, stupid woman. Well, I'll put up with being called names by @mcuban any day to stand up and support the candidate with the policies that will make our country a strong, free, safe, and thriving nation for everyone! @realDonaldTrump #mnleg

Since 2019 when Gov. Walz started: Graduation rates stagnated; consistent attendance 69.8%; reading DECLINED 16%; math DECLINED 17%, science DECLINED 23%. DFL strategies have failed our schools, failed our parents, and failed our students. This red alert is crying out for reform!
