Thank you for your solid stance to our district. Though you’re experiencing severe criticism from the Democrats, those of us who believe in you are grateful for your tenacity to stick to the Judeo/Christian values on which our government was founded.

Thank you for bringing information regarding the comprehensive sex education curriculum to our attention. Many parents are not aware of this educational scheme to teach our younger children about sexual acts, taking away the responsibilities of parents who may not agree or condone the classroom presentations.

At various parades around our district, I’ve seen many of your former students, who are now parents, step out of crowds of spectators and approach you with hugs and words of appreciation for your years of teaching here in School District 241.

Your attendance at the night of prayer for Officer Arik Matson, who was shot while on duty, is duly noted as your presence that evening was a solid show of support for our area law enforcement.

Many farmers in our district are thankful of your support and the time you devote listening to their concerns.

Now that President Trump has made a proclamation to open our places of business and get back to some semblance of normal recovery, thank you for calling on Governor Walz to open up Minnesota.

It’s time to be able to visit a hair salon and shop at stores that also sell what Home Depot and Walmart have. Going to a restaurant, sitting down to enjoy a meal is a real desire of many. Of course, we will observe all the health rules: wear masks, watch our distance, sterilize our hands before entry, etc.

Your work at the House of Representatives is appreciated. It’s time to enjoy Minnesota and, yes, we will campaign and vote for Peggy Bennett.
