Mother's Day 2021
Happy Mother's Day!
I hope all of the mom's reading this week's update feel celebrated and loved this weekend. Thank you for all you do for our families and communities!
Update from St. Paul
House and Senate Democrats have officially included two controversial gun control provisions in their Public Safety Bill?raising the likelihood that these will become law unless brave Democrats in the Senate stand up to their party leadership.
These gun control measures violate the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding gun owners and are being forced into a budget bill to avoid an up or down vote because Democrats know these bills have bipartisan opposition and would not pass. It?s now up to these select few Senators to decide whether they will side with their party leaders or listen to the people they represent.
You can count on me to vote ?no? and continue standing firm for your 2nd Amendment rights.
I expect a vote on this bill to come either later tonight or tomorrow. Stay tuned.
Democrats Cutting Deals Behind Closed Doors
Democrats continue to make deals behind closed doors as they cut the public and Republicans out of negotiations on budget bills.
It is wrong for them to silence the voices of millions of Minnesotans by refusing to include the public and their elected representatives in this process.

Free College? Think Again
This week, the House gave final approval to the Higher Education policy and finance bill. Democrats refuse to address the core reasons why tuition continues to rise, making college unaffordable for Minnesotans.
