ATTORNEY GENERAL — RON SCHUTZ WINS
Statement from Alex Plechash
“Congratulations to our endorsed candidate Ron Schutz on becoming the Republican nominee for Attorney General.
“Now Minnesotans get one of the clearest choices on the ballot this November: Ron Schutz or four more years of Keith Ellison.
“Keith Ellison has been Minnesota’s top law enforcement officer for nearly eight years. What do we have to show for it? Massive fraud stole money meant for hungry children and vulnerable Minnesotans. Ellison sat down with people who would later be convicted in the Feeding Our Future scandal while they sought his political support. Violent crime surged on his watch. And instead of standing up for Minnesota girls, Ellison went to court to defend policies allowing biological males to compete in girls’ sports.
“Enough.
“Ron Schutz will be the Attorney General Minnesota needs: prosecute the fraudsters, back law enforcement, stand with victims, protect girls’ sports, defend taxpayers and enforce the law without fear or political favoritism.
“Keith Ellison represents everything Minnesotans are tired of in DFL government — fraud without accountability, crime without consequences and ideology ahead of common sense.
“Ron Schutz represents a clean break: stop the fraud, enforce the law, protect our kids and put Minnesota taxpayers first.
“Tonight was only step one. Now Republicans unite behind Ron Schutz, defeat Keith Ellison and bring law, order and accountability back to the Attorney General’s Office.”
