Legislative Update

Dear Friends and Neighbors,

For the third week in a row, Democrats in the House have refused to show up and work for their constituents. They’ve completely neglected their responsibility as legislators and public servants. To add insult to injury, they’re still collecting a paycheck. To date, they’ve cost the Minnesota taxpayer upwards of $130,000. Despite their absence, I will not waste time as an elected official and will continue to meet with law enforcement, victims, and advocacy groups to get their feedback on what we need to do to make Minnesota a safer place to live, work, and raise a family.

*Looking Forward*

While the Democrats hold out on serving the people of Minnesota, we will continue to work hard for our communities. Just this past Wednesday, myself and members of the House Committee on Public Safety held a press conference announcing our proposal to combat the consequences of soft on crime policies that have emboldened criminals and made our communities less safe.

Staying true to my campaign promise, I co-authored this legislation to make Minnesota cities safer while holding criminals, prosecutors, and judges accountable for their actions.

Key provisions in my proposal include:


* Mandatory minimum 10-year sentences for predators engaged in first-degree sex trafficking.
* Predatory offender registration required for offenders engaged in criminal sexual conduct who receive a stayed sentence from the courts.
* New and enhanced criminal offenses including blocking a freeway, highway, transit, or the road to and from the airport.
* Increased penalty for fleeing a police officer in a reckless manner.
* Increased penalties for individuals who conspire to trespass on or damage critical infrastructure such as pipelines, utility lines, and water lines.
* Increased penalties for assaulting a peace officer from a gross misdemeanor to a felony.
* Providing better access to the public on prosecutors’ charging and dismissal decisions, and court sentencing departures

 

As we continue through the 2025-2026 session, I’d appreciate your input. If you have any thoughts or concerns, you can reach me at 651-296-7065 or at my email, [email protected].
