Congressman Finstad is funded by data center companies and a Chinese state-owned corporation. I'm not. That's the difference.

And we've gotten extra credit in Harmony! I enjoyed hosting my 22nd town hall meeting that was open to everyone and had no pre-screening of questions. We had great conversations about lowering costs, taking on corruption, and investing in our small towns instead of data centers.

It's getting more expensive to raise a family these days, with childcare & healthcare becoming less accessible, and schools & nutrition programs continuing to be underfunded. My wife and I are raising 4 boys, and I look forward to championing parents and families in Congress.

I tell my students it's okay to be wrong if I call on them, but they should at least try to give an answer.

🚨OUR NEWEST AD JUST DROPPED🚨 Congressman Finstad said he'd balance the budget, but then he voted to increase the national debt by nearly $5 trillion and to spend $2 billion per day on the Iran War.

We need a balanced budget amendment now to stop both parties from spending recklessly and sticking our kids with the bill.

Congressman Finstad took tens of thousands of dollars from a Chinese state-owned corporation, and then voted to protect them from lawsuits and make it easier for them to buy more of our farmland.

It's part of a broader pattern of policy decisions that Finstad has supported which have helped China over Minnesota. In Congress, I won't take money from corporations, and I'll always choose Minnesota over China.

A dreary Saturday was no match for us in Worthington! I had a great time enjoying King Turkey Day and meeting lots of folks. Thanks to everyone who walked along with me!

I'm proud to be endorsed by Beth Benike, a 10-year Army veteran and the 2025 Minnesota Small Business Person of the Year, who couldn't even get a meeting with Congressman Finstad as he voted for tariffs that harmed her small business.

We need a representative who will lower costs and listen to their constituents, not dodge them while making everything more expensive.

We need a congressman who'll support our small business owners, not refuse to meet with them and then vote for massive tariffs that threaten to wipe them out.

Why This Election Matters for Small Business and Innovation

I didn't set out to become a spokesperson for tariff policy. I set out to help parents stop chasing sippy cups off the floor. You don't get to choose when your business becomes a case study, only...

In Congress, I'll vote against these tariffs and work to make sure that southern Minnesota's small businesses have what they need to thrive.
