Kent Nelson, Sartell
To the residents in House District 13B – tired of gridlock? Tired of a party who, when they don’t get their way, shuts down the government? Tired of stalemates and no Northstar to St. Cloud? Tired of a party that just moves money around in the budget, claiming fiscal responsibility and leaves the state with an inadequate transportation system? Tired of watching our local schools passing operating and building referenda and seeing no public support by our local Republican politicians? No letters to the editor, no public statements supporting the schools, yet literature dropped at doors and newspaper ads proclaiming support for education – just a little hypocrisy. Then there is the big hypocrisy: voting against the minimum-wage increase and still proclaiming support for local families.
The residents in House District 13B need a new voice in the Minnesota Legislature. Matthew Crouse is running for this office because he truly believes Central Minnesota needs a representative who will fight for economic growth through job creation and affordable living wages, an efficient transportation system that includes the Northstar to St. Cloud, real support for education including affordable higher education choices and a defense of collective-bargaining rights for working people.
Crouse will be an outstanding representative for District 13B and deserves your vote this November.
