Gina Long Sparks Mental Health Pilot Program

I received a letter from Gina Long, a mom from rural Wadena, whose husband Sam died by suicide in December 2023. Her story and call for action revealed gaps in our mental health system. In response to her story, we created a pilot program to connect people with help faster. One voice can make a difference.

Minnesotans deserve leaders who use common sense and take real action to protect taxpayer-funded programs. Fraud shouldn’t become the new normal in government.
