Washington County Republicans 2/10/18 Meeting
U.S. Senate Candidate Karin Housley
Karin Housley, U.S. Senate candidate for the November 2018 elections, attended the WCR breakfast at The Lake Elmo Inn as the featured speaker.
Housley believes that taxpayers should be respected, veterans should be remembered, and seniors should be properly cared for.
As Senator and Chair of the Aging and Long Term Care Committee, Karin fought to keep our seniors safe and eliminate government waste.
Karin is aware that government regulations make it difficult for businesses to thrive. She understands that businesses need to be supported as they create jobs for our citizens. Small businesses need lower taxes and fewer government obstacles to succeed.
Improving and repairing our infrastructure so that it is safe as well as serviceable to all citizens is another issue for Housley.
She is excited for Minnesota citizens who are benefiting from Trump’s tax reform.
Housley believes that we need to hit the pause button on immigration: we need to find out who is here before we move forward. She supports building the wall and securing our borders.
“We have the opportunity to turn Minnesota RED. We can be a state that is about liberty and freedom, not taxation and unreasonable spending. This will only be possible with your involvement.”
“I am running because for too long, Washington elites have gotten away with doing whatever they want. I will look after those that have been forgotten, just like I have in Minnesota. The times are changing, and it is time for there to be a new voice for Minnesota in Washington, D.C…when you have things you truly believe in, you have to fight for them.”
Housley currently represents Senate District 39, which includes Stillwater, Forest Lake, Lake Elmo, Bayport, Oak Park Heights and the surrounding St. Croix Valley. She now serves as chairwoman of the Aging and Long-Term Care committee, Vice-Chair of the Commerce and Consumer Protection Committee and serves on the Veterans and Military Affairs, and Jobs and Economic Growth Committees.
“Best breakfast ever at the Lake Elmo Inn talking w folks from Washington County. Thanks for coming!…”
