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

Are conservatives & libertarians really ok with the surveillance state they voted for? I suppose as long as “those people” are being targeted.

Heather Cox Richardson on the importance of pushing back to your members of Congress…especially the Republican ones.

“If your grandfather were driving a car & repeatedly ran over toddlers, at some point it would be your responsibility to take those keys away.”

“GOP owns this now…The way for gop to recognize that [we] don’t want this is for us to speak up more & more.”

Amtrak lags in maintenance & updates to its inventory. When a rail car needs service, it gets mothballed & trains get shorter. Not enough cars are in service to meet demand. They have funding but are moving slow.

High Speed Rail Alliance has an easy web form to write Transportation Secretary Duffy to request they expedite orders. https://www.hsrail.org/blog/ask-sec-duffy-to-expedite-superliner-replacement/
