There is a primary election for state senate district 41 (Cottage Grove, Hastings, Afton, Lake Elmo) on August 9 and Tom Dippel is the right man for the job.

We haven’t seen meaningful conservative policy fought for by Tom’s opponent who appears to be a yes-man. According to Action 4 Liberty and the American Conservative Union’s Legislative Voting Reports for 2021, Tom’s primary opponent, Tony Jurgens, held one of the bottom 2 worst house conservative voting records. He was only saved from being the worst by Keith Franke who came in dead last. We need someone with courage that won’t back down.

We can get a fresh start. Tom Dippel is a small business owner and gets the struggles of burdensome and unnecessary regulations. He is a husband and father of six who understands the burdens Minnesota taxes place on families.

On August 9, we have a unique opportunity to elect a principled champion who will vote for conservative values. I ask everyone to please vote for Tom Dippel for Minnesota Senate.
