Seventy. Six. Years.

Wow! I was just sharing with Jodi the other day how hard it is to believe I have already been in Congress for more than a year. We had that conversation Monday as we embarked on a four-stop “Our Way of Life” tour announcing my 2020 re-election campaign. With campaign stops in Eveleth, Hermantown, Wyoming, and Brainerd, I shared with hundreds of supporters our vision of an even brighter sun shining even higher in the sky.

With historically low unemployment and an economy that is moving again, I want to continue fighting for our way of life built on the opportunity, freedom, and values we hold dear. I look forward to helping unleash the economic engine in our part of Minnesota, fighting to ensure health care is affordable and accessible, and keeping America’s economy moving with pro-growth policies that provide working families greater opportunity and prosperity.

Did you know William Pittenger was the last Republican to get re-elected to Congress from the 8th district? He did that in 1944. That’s right – with your help on Nov. 3, we can make history and become the first Republican re-elected to Congress from northern Minnesota in 76 years. Let’s do this!

Fighting for the Unborn

I was honored to join thousands of Minnesotans Wednesday who gathered at the State Capitol in St. Paul for Minnesota Citizens Concerned for Life’s (MCCL) March for Life to demonstrate and reaffirm our commitment to the unborn. As a Christian and father to four amazing children and someone who was endorsed in 2018 by MCCL and National Right to Life, I want you to know that I will always protect the unborn. Life is a precious miracle from God that begins at conception and ends at natural death and I will continue to be a strong and vocal advocate for the unborn.

My Campaign is only a Click Away

I am excited to share that we have launched my new campaign website which will serve as a one-stop shop for you in 2020. Stay on top of news, notes, and events from my campaign. Get informed about election details by visiting the Election Center where you will find helpful information on polling locations and conventions, registering to vote, and requesting an absentee ballot. Provide financial support to the campaign with one easy click. And keep your wardrobe stocked with our latest merchandise at our online store where you’ll find stocking caps, full-zip fleece vests, hoodies, fleece blankets, and more. Check out my new website and get all you need to know about how I will continue fighting for our way of life!

Precinct Caucuses Just 6 Weeks away

One month from now, Minnesotans will have the opportunity to participate in Precinct Caucuses. On Tuesday, Feb. 25, Republicans from around the 8th congressional district will take part in the unofficial kickoff to the 2020 campaign season. I’ll soon be posting additional information on my website highlighting Republican precinct caucus locations as well as BPOU convention dates and venues. Thanks for joining me on the front lines fighting for our way of life!

Have a great week!
