Freedom And Democracy

Freedom and democracy are under sustained attack at home and abroad.

Extremists have taken control of the Republican Party and the Supreme Court. They are attacking our most cherished freedoms: the right to vote and to free elections; the right of free speech and assembly; the right to have control over our own bodies and to access safe abortions; the right to organize unions; and marriage equality. The Republicans are trying to cover up the January 6 insurrection and deny the results of a free and fair election. There is a strong pro-Putin wing in the Republican Party that is ready to appease Russian aggression in Ukraine and elsewhere.

Our incumbent Congressman signed on to a lawsuit that attempted to overturn the 2020 election, voted against the Voting Rights Acts and the Women’s Health Protection Act, against investigating the January 6 insurrection, and against the Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act. He is also one of the most vocal anti-choice advocates in Congress, calling it a priority ever since arriving in Washington.

It is vitally important to get out and vote this year and to support a candidate who will fight for our fundamental American values of freedom and democracy at home and abroad. I am that candidate for Congress in the Eighth District of Minnesota, and I urgently request your support.
