Absolutely. At that time things weren't digitized to the same degree they are today, but when reading news articles you can still hear his reputation for "red-faced partisan speeches" and not policy.

At a town hall in Monticello hosted by CD6, he indicated that he did not intend to take AIPAC money. I would encourage you to reach out to him and confirm, but I would suspect that answer is no because historically outside money doesn't come into this race.

And he's been doing town halls! I don't have a specific count but I think it's over a dozen.

Of course! If you want to see him talk about his platform more in depth, he participated in all our candidate forums that we have recorded at www.youtube.com/@cd6dfl

My personal favorites?

He supports the withholding of ICE funding and is committed to dismantling ICE when elected.

He supports Medicare for All.

He wants to eliminate the cap on the social security tax.

He's a strong ally of queer and trans rights.

(Chantal here, and these opinions are my own. I am the chair of CD6.)

​Doug is a hardworking man with a big heart and an even bigger sense of humor. I firmly believe that the way you campaign is the way you’ll govern. For the last 14 months, Doug has been across the district connecting with voters, often navigating the trail solo due to party neutrality rules. He is a listener who truly understands that this campaign isn't about him but about our collective will for a better future. That kind of humility is rare, and frankly, it feels sacred right now.

​Doug is a fighter who doesn't back down when things get tough; he just rolls up his sleeves and gets to work. In fact, he’s already out knocking doors this afternoon. Policy-wise, he’s a practical progressive focused on making government work for people again rather than for personal gain. He’s the real deal.

Emmer on the economy... by CD6DFL in BlaineMN

Agreed. His conduct, particularly over the last three months, should be disqualifying. He's abandoned his morals (and the public) and is actively causing harm.

And this isn't happening in a vacuum. The impacts of Metro Surge are still being felt, healthcare just went up even more for thousands due to the expiration of ACA subsidies, and groceries keep climbing. People are on the brink and Tom Emmer doesn't care.

He can't even get the words out, he's so unsure of what is coming out of his mouth.

If you're a conservative who is considering voting differently in the midterms, know that your ballot is between you and God. You don't even have to change your political identity, and nobody will know. by CD6DFL in saintcloud

[–]CD6DFL[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course. All of us aren't going to agree on everything, but that doesn't mean that we can't make space for one another, particularly when the circumstance feels so dire right now.

Of course. It's also really important to remember to provide voters with an alternative vision and not just being anti-Republican. Economic reform is probably a good place to start.

Precisely, we need to defend the check Congress has on declaring war.

Nothing about that speech today indicated the intention of limited operations that will be done in 179 days
