Letter to the editor: Cravaack: Bring us back

Talk about it

We are fortunate to live in an area of abundant resources. Minnesota’s Congressional District 8 has forests, mining, tourism, seaports, and hardworking people. Yet, our families are forced to move out of this district to find employment elsewhere. We need leadership that will allow families to remain and thrive in this district.

I am the Independence candidate for Congress who wishes to endorse my opponent, Chip Cravaack. We both hold the same ideals and values when it comes to smaller government, reducing the national debt, and protection of our freedoms as Minnesotans and Americans.

After spending much time with Chip, I am convinced that he is the District 8 candidate who will lead Minnesota and our country back to a United States of America that belongs to the people, not to the government. He understands the issues and will represent us well.

I am actively campaigning for Chip Cravaack and encourage your vote for him Tuesday.

From Tim Olson, Buhl
