Stop Fraud and Abuse

  • Let’s reduce the size of state government and the budget so MN citizens keep more of their hard-earned money.
  • I am in favor of creating an Office of Inspector General – an independent oversight and investigative authority for state agencies.
  • Promote expanding ALL energy sources, especially abundant / affordable / clean coal, gas and nuclear to stabilize costs and energy for everyone.
  • Let’s remove all taxes on Social Security. (Seniors are losing their homes due to high property taxes.)
  • ONLY MN tax-paying citizens qualify for state tax-supported programs.
  • Encourage small business owners to grow by pulling back from high taxes and regulations.
Fraud Numbers 
Under Walz administration the DFL legislature raised our taxes 38% and non-government organizations (NGOs) stole over $2 billion from MN taxpayers.
  - $250 million fraud, Feeding Our Future, dubbed the "largest pandemic fraud case in the United States. "
  - $45 million in Frontline Worker bonus pay fraud.  
  - $36 million in Medicaid fraud by various providers.
  - $5 million in Unemployment benefits fraud.
  - $100 million in fraudulent payments was also uncovered in the Child Care Assistance Program.

ALL OF THIS FRAUD took place under the leadership of the Walz administration and the Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) between 2019 and 2021. So far, no state official has been penalized. The Republican-led Senate held several public hearings about the fraud in 2022, and they also set up the Fraud Prevention Committee. All the while, the Democratic House and Governor Walz ignored the issues.

Re-Establish Community Safety

” Without law and order, we are not a free people.”

  • As per our current laws: fully fund and staff our city police departments.
  • Allow law enforcement officers (LEO) to perform their jobs without being regulated by those without law enforcement experience.
  • Support schools’ staff to enforce school disciplinary policies that encourage respect and require consequences for misbehavior, even suspension if safety is a concern.

Elevate Student Educational Outcomes

The Minnesota schools are at their lowest point in over 50 years falling from sixth in the nation to 19th. And did you know that almost 40% of the ENTIRE state budget supports public education? Yet, many districts are in arears. When half the students cannot read at their grade level and even fewer students master math and science at their grade level and this much money is being spent, something is very wrong with this picture.

Knowledge is Power.

What you vote for is what you get! Tired of watching truth slide by the wayside? Frustrated with the continued barrage of high taxes? Wonder how current laws stack up against our paychecks? Why are Minnesotan’s saddled with billions in fraud?

Please help me and my fellow conservatives “right the state ship” known as Minnesota. It was once a wonderful place to live, work and grow our families. Billions in fraud, high taxes, and new program mandates are destroying our state and our way of life. Learn why we have lost our way and what it will take to redirect us. Spending a few hours each week to read, learn and engage in service is well worth the sacrifice of time and energy.
