Why Shane Hudella for State Representative District 41B?

Crime and the Economy are both out of control.

With an estimated $12 BILLION dollar surplus by January, it is evident that we’re taking too much of your hard earned money.

I will be a part of the team that repeals the state tax on social security in the first few weeks of session, delivers across the board tax cuts for working Minnesotans in 2023, and fights the proposed Gas Tax increase that the DFL is pushing hard for.

There has also been a complete lack of accontability for crime in our state the last few years.

Minnesota is now officially a “high crime” state where murder is up a whopping 72% and daily violence is rampant in Minneapolis & St. Paul.

I will work tirelessly to refund the police, immediately crack down on crime and hold judges and prosecutors accountable for not following our sentencing guidelines. We have to stop the revolving door that is putting dangerous criminals back on the street as soon as they go to jail – keeping our communities safe is a core function of government and right now our state government isn’t doing its job.
