Feel free to lift and use this text to write your MN Republican member of Congress (Stauber, Fischbach, Finstad, Emmer)

1 May 2026
Representative Emmer,

I write to express my dismay and anger at your continued attacks on good public servants of Minnesota, like Governor Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison.

Your attacks are purely political, and are based on grossly exaggerated claims of fraud in the state. No objective journalistic analysis has come close to the $9 billion in fraud that you repeatedly claim. The Star Tribune, which analyzed real data, found on the order of $217 million in fraud.

Furthermore, Minnesota has been aggressively pursuing fraudsters, a fact which you disingenuously ignore.

Furthermore, Republicans have a track record of divestment of public agencies providing basic social services under the myth that the private sector is more efficient. Republicans also have opposed adequate funding for government oversight of public grants to the private sector.

I see through your charade, and I don’t like what I see.

Sincerely,

MB

Ex-Minnesota state trooper reveals how state ‘tried to cover up fraud allegations’ ; then Walz shut down his department

A former Minnesota state trooper alleged this week that his bosses at the state Department of Human Services tried to bully him into quashing his findings of fraud in the state’s child care funding program. Jay Swanson, a former criminal investigator for the DHS, also revealed that it was well known among Somali refugees in East Africa that Minnesota was the best place to go in the US to pull off child care fraud schemes. And then, Gov. Tim Walz came into office — and Swanson’s entire […]

The ultra-right "State Freedom Caucus Network" (SFCN)
now has at least 15 state affiliates,
with new caucuses announced last month in Minnesotaand West Virginia.

The first action taken by the Minnesota Freedom Caucus was to
💥file articles of #impeachment against two state Democratic officeholders, Attorney General Keith #Ellison and Governor Tim #Walz.

“Minnesota Republicans could have filed impeachment articles at any time. The numbers were there,” wrote SFCN President Andrew Roth in a recent letter to supporters.
“What was missing was organization and discipline. It took a Minnesota Freedom Caucus to turn talk into action.”

The SFCN umbrella group gives the new affiliates in Minnesota and West Virginia,
along with other state freedom caucuses
— in Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Louisiana, Maryland, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, and Wyoming
— a policy playbook
with directives and support staff to help move their extreme right-wing agenda forward.

Mississippi and Nevada were publicly part of the network in the past, but are no longer listed on the SFCN site.

At least 167 lawmakers are members in the 15 states, according to a Center for Media and Democracy (CMD) review.
“Total representation may not be shown as some members are #anonymous,” SFCN notes on its website.

The network’s extreme right-wing agenda includes
🔸keeping undocumented residents from using state social services,
🔸enforcing strict rules on voting that constitute voter suppression,
🔸preventing public schools from teaching the history of slavery, systemic racism, and social justice or what the Right labels critical race theory (CRT),
and 🔸preventing state pensions from investing in funds that promote environmental, social, and governance (ESG) goals.
