A special Thank You to everyone who supported me throughout my campaign & on election day..John

It was a great honor to be given the opportunity to represent the Republican Party in the 2008 Minnesota House election.  I give my promise to the citizens of District 5B to continue to be a watchdog for their interests.  As I did in the months leading up to announcing my candidacy, I will watch all of the moves and all of the votes cast by my opponent during this legislative session.

And many believe it's the Republicans that are against unions...

Below is an article from AFSCME Council 5's official website

BUST LORI SWANSON(DFL) FOR UNION BUSTING!

In the face of fear, attorneys in the Attorney General’s Office want to join AFSCME.  In March they courageously wrote a letter asking their boss for recognition of their union.  Soon after, Attorney General Lori Swanson held captive audience meetings to coerce her employees into opposing the union.  She summoned small groups of the attorneys to a conference room.  With two supervisors and two judges watching, the workers were asked to mark an anti-union ballot saying that the letter requesting union rights didn’t speak for them. 

Let’s end the fear and intimidation, so the office can get back to protecting consumers. 

Call Attorney General Lori Swanson immediately at 651-296-6196.  Tell her to stop union busting and recognize the union chosen by her attorneys.
