Kendall Qualls: More government, more picking winners and losers? Not the way to a better Minnesota

Published Sat, 22 Feb 2025 08:11:47 GMT

A lot has changed since my childhood. The freedoms I enjoy today were once a dream for which my parents and grandparents longed. Yet the values that made our families strong and state government even stronger have been sidelined for “my way or the highway” mentalities that hurt the people they’re meant to protect. As lawmakers debate tax-and-spend legislation worth billions, they need to remember this: For a better Minnesota, we need to go back to our fundamental values.Democrats are currently sitting on an $18 billion surplus – also known as our hard-earned tax dollars. At a time when eggs cost more than a gallon of gas, families are struggling to pay their bills and put food on the table, you’d assume Democrats would offer relief for Minnesota families.

If you’re waiting for a punchline, there isn’t one.It’s hard to fathom how much bigger the government can get, but Democr...

Letters: Overwhelmed by fear and sadness, I hurt because I mourn Luis Garcia

Published Sat, 22 Feb 2025 08:11:47 GMT

Adults need to take student safety seriously, finallyWhen will adults take student safety seriously?My friend Luis Garcia lived with integrity. He always worked to be the best version of himself.Today, adults talk about safer schools and ending gun violence. Their words are seemingly filled with authority and integrity. Yet the best versions of these officials can be found in their talking points in the news and social media. Unfortunately, their words have no impact.At the beginning of this school year, police entered our school with semi-automatic weapons during an active shooter threat. With guns pointed at us, we evacuated and stood on the hot football field. As kids were crying and collapsing, I watched a school board member hand out water to onlookers across the street. He turned his back on traumatized kids while performing virtuous acts for adults.Our school had another lockdown a few days after my friend Luis was shot. A normalized event, but I no longer felt normal. Overwh...
