1. Eliminate property taxes- because it's just renting from the government if we don't.
2. Protect life at all stages.
3. Cut the size and reach of the state government.
Get the government out of our businesses. Cut the red tape and deregulate!!
All depends on what we're talking about more specifically.
No, because it's swung too far in the wrong direction.
All depends on what we're talking about specifically. I am all for clean air and water, just not the stupidity that seems to be the norm in our state government when it comes to enforcing some of those issues.
Be an example in word and deed to our children, co workers, and neighbors. We need to set the bar higher when it comes to respect. We also need to set the bar higher when it comes to personal responsibility. We need to stop trying to put a bandaid on problems that need to be solved at the starting line, not the finish line.
I'm not sure. I would want to look into the issue further. I do feel like the playing field needs to be level without bias to rich or poor
My top three priorities are expanding access to affordable healthcare, strengthening our public schools, and ensuring every Minnesotan can afford to build the life they want here. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I see every day how healthcare, housing, and economic stability shape people's lives. I will work to lower healthcare costs, expand mental health services, and protect access to health insurance for families facing its loss. I will fight for fully funded public schools so every child has the opportunity to succeed, and I will support policies that make housing, childcare, and everyday essentials more affordable. Our laws should reflect our values by caring for our neighbors and creating opportunities for everyone.
A strong economy starts with a strong workforce. I will support workforce development in shortage areas and bring a public health lens to policy making, recognizing that investments like Paid Family and Medical Leave improve health, strengthen families, as the foundation for lasting economic growth. I will also champion small businesses and innovation while ensuring public investments are transparent, accountable, and deliver long-term benefits for Minnesotans.
I will support policies that ensure our workforce, boards, and decision-making bodies reflect the communities they serve. This includes expanding pathways to recruit and retain diverse educators, accountability for engagement in government agencies, and ensuring those voices are guiding policy implementation. Crucial to Moorhead’s residents, I also support the long-overdue implementation of MENA (Middle Eastern and North African) race and ethnicity as a mechanism to better tell Moorhead's story.
Yes. I support Minnesota adopting the Equal Rights Amendment to the because our laws should reflect our values of fairness, dignity, and equal opportunity for all Minnesotans. Constitutional protections provide a strong foundation to ensure that no person faces discrimination based on characteristics such as sex, race, disability, or other protected identities. Minnesota has a long history of leading on civil rights, and the ERA strengthens our protecting the rights and freedom of everyone.
I support legislation that protects Minnesota’s clean air and water while creating a fair and just transition to clean energy. We must prevent projects that could permanently damage places like the Boundary Waters that are both resources and regenerative. I will support shifting agricultural investments toward local food systems and providing incentives for practices that strengthen our soil, water, and long-term sustainability.
Safe communities require thoughtful investments in the systems that keep people safe. I support strengthening fire and EMS response, expanding mental health crisis response, and addressing the root causes that contribute to unsafe situations. Safety cannot rely solely on traditional policing, that is unfair to our officers. It requires a coordinated approach that includes prevention and intervention. In Moorhead, we must address long-standing gaps in firefighting staffing and response times.
For state races, I support reducing the influence of big money in elections by creating a more level playing field for candidates and voters. This includes lowering candidate contribution limits, stronger limits on out-of-state donations for Minnesota races, and increasing real-time transparency around campaign contributions and spending. I support continuing Minnesota’s Political Contribution Refund program so all Minnesotans can participate in the democratic process.
