Priority Issues:

* We can create jobs by investing in infrastructure -- roads, bridges, transit, and broadband internet to rural areas.

* Clean energy, green jobs, and a progressive strategy to deal with climate change for our state. Minnesota can lead the way on a path to environmental stewardship. We are the land of 10,000 lakes and we need to provide clean water for future generations.

* Building an economy that works for all Minnesotans, not just the wealthy few. A level playing field provides everyone an opportunity for success.

* Making higher education more affordable.

* Investing in our families and schools

* Increasing local government aid (LGA) to help lower property taxes.
