Minnesota's Second District
Thanks for coming to Lakeville to see this amazing new public safety training facility, Rep. @PeteStauber. And thanks for your support of the state bonding dollars for it, @EricPrattMN.
Spending the day in 2nd district with @EricPrattMN. Just toured Lakeville’s new FiRST Center public safety training facility. It is a regional asset that resulted from a federal, state and local partnership.

Great having Congressman Stauber in the 2nd District today! We covered a lot of ground and got to spend time with people across the district. Thanks for spending the day with us, @PeteStauber!

Matt Little is willing to lie to you to win this race. The issues he’s complaining about started popping up after I left the fraud unit (which had one of the best rates for stopping fraud - in the country). I moved to a completely different unit that had zero oversight of them. Thanks for the opportunity @LittleCongress to hold you accountable to tell the truth and show how you have no idea how the corporate structure and real business world actually work. CD2 families are trying to root out all the liars in Congress, not send more.
Pratt worked at U.S. Bank for a decade as VP of risk management & fraud prevention. U.S. Bank was fined 37.5 million by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau for FRAUDULENTLY opening bank accounts without customer authorization during Pratt’s tenure. Pratt is a fraud on fraud.

Every dollar matters when you’re paying more for groceries, filling the gas tank and trying to make the family budget work. You work too hard to watch your tax dollars be wasted. After 30 years in financial services, I know what accountability takes. I’m ready to bring that experience to Washington and get to work. #MN02

“It’s not just politics. We’re getting to know our neighbors. I love that.” That summed up today’s Chat with Pratt. We may not always agree, but when we listen to each other, we often find more common ground than we expect. Less political noise. More listening to the people who call CD2 home. #MN02

Great to talk with the 1st Judicial District Republican Committee on Monday night! Thanks for the opportunity to share more about why I’m running, our campaign and what I’ve been hearing from voters across CD2 about the issues that matter to them. #MN02

Rosemount, you’re up next! Chat with Pratt is coming your way this week. I’ll be stopping in for coffee and some time to catch up with folks in the community. If you’ve got something on your mind, a question you want to ask, or just want to come say hi, I’d be glad to have you join me. Hope to see some familiar faces and meet a few new ones! #MN02

A little rain didn’t slow us down in Lakeville today! We had a great crew of #TeamPratt volunteers out knocking doors for Super Knock Saturday, then finished the afternoon catching up with folks at the SD57 Republicans BBQ. Grateful for everyone who keeps showing up and putting in the work! #MN02

Today, we honor the American service members who endured captivity and those who never returned home. We remember their courage, their sacrifice and the families who have carried their absence for generations. Our nation has a responsibility to keep their stories alive and continue the work of accounting for those still missing. You are not forgotten.

Appreciated the opportunity to spend time with residents at Applewood Pointe of Eagan yesterday. We covered a lot of ground, including healthcare costs, immigration, government fraud and accountability. Thank you for the thoughtful questions, warm welcome and the opportunity to hear directly from you. #MN02

I enjoyed visiting FIT Academy in Apple Valley and learning more about their approach to education. Located in the heart of Minnesota’s third-largest school district, FIT Academy is a public charter school offering families another choice in their children’s education, with a unique focus on fitness, intellect and teamwork. It was good to see the school firsthand and hear how they’re creating an environment where students can learn, grow and succeed. Thank you to the @FitCharter team for showing me around!

A great evening at the Lakeville Public Safety Foundation’s Police & Firefighters Ball recognizing the men and women who serve our community every day. Good to see our friends from Abijah’s there as well. I’ve had the opportunity to support their equine therapy work for first responders through the Senate. Thank you to @lpsfmn for all you do to support our police and fire departments.

Well deserved - good to see some in the building trades standing with their members, and against politicians playing games with union jobs by calling for moratoriums - data centers can be done right, fit with communities and create jobs
I’m honored to receive the endorsement of the Minnesota Pipe Trades Association. Their members are plumbers, pipefitters, sprinklerfitters, HVAC and service technicians. These skilled men and women build, maintain and protect the infrastructure our communities depend on every day. Here in the 2nd District, the trades provide good careers, support families and help keep our communities growing. We need to keep creating opportunities for people to build a successful life through skilled work, apprenticeships and careers in the trades. I’m proud to have these hardworking men and women standing with me, and I’ll work just as hard to make sure they have a strong voice in Washington. #MN02

Matt Little served in the Minnesota Senate. He knows there’s more to a legislative record than what fits into a campaign attack. I wasn’t in office when Minnesota created the original data center tax exemption. In 2013, when the DFL-controlled Legislature expanded it, I VOTED NO. Yes, HF 16 extended an existing exemption. It also added multimillion-dollar annual fees, water safeguards and protections against shifting utility costs onto other customers and families. Families shouldn’t have to fact-check every campaign attack. Doing the homework is my job. Giving you the facts and telling you the whole truth is my responsibility. I stand behind my vote.
