My three top priorities all focus on my daughters' future. I stand for investing in keeping our water clean. I will continue to work for strong public schools. Finally, I will never waiver in my efforts to protect their rights and fighting to pass an ERA amentment.
Continue to invest in our state's infrastructure to ensure our business have a fair shot in the national and global econonmy. Beyond that I will continue to fight for workers to ensure our middle class families remain the engine that has fueled our economy during our time of prosperity and growth!
I will continue my work to ensure that our young people have access to a world class education regardless of their zip code. Also I will fight to lower the cost of child care across the state. Finally, I will work to take on the greedy corporate interests that have preyed on consumers during this past few years of inflation to make sure they are held accountable.
I am proud of the work I was a part of at the Capitol to shift our state away from an old-fashioned reliance on the buring of coal to generate electricity. I will work to incentivize the transition to green energy transition and work to shorten the timelines in which it will happen. We also need to continue our fight to protect our clean water and continue to address the root causes of what is damaging our soil and thus our ground water, lakes, and rivers.

The League of Women Voters of Minnesota and North Dakota crafted the questions sent to the candidates in the Spring of 2024. They reached out to candidates based on contact information in their public candidate filings. Candidates with email addresses were invited and reminded with emails. Candidates with only mailing addresses were sent a letter. Candidates with phone numbers received a phone call as well.

Candidate responses are published as they responded and have not been edited, except when responses were longer than the given character limit. In those cases, the responses are truncated.

VOTE411 is brought to you by the League of Women Voters Education Fund and League of Women Voters of Minnesota Education Fund. The League of Women Voters does not support or oppose any political party or candidate for office.
