BLOG: Join Congressman John Kline in Supporting Paul Tuschy for Minnesota House of Representatives

You have stood with Congressman John Kline and have entrusted him to serve you in Washington, and now he is asking you to support Paul Tuschy for Minnesota House.

Every now and then, someone steps up to run for political office who doesn't have the pedigree that one would expect a politician to have. Some people might say that if you weren't born into a political powerhouse family, you have no business running for office. Even more might say, "how dare you challenge the status quo", and "who do you think you are?"

Paul Tuschy is running for Minnesota House because he believes in a Minnesota where the people are more powerful than the government.

Paul grew up on a farm and learned what hard work and dedication is. His parents taught him how to save money and how to work for an honest living. They taught him that you stand up when you see something that is not right. Paul is standing up now, for residents in House District 52B, and he has the support of a strong principled man that residents, especially in Inver Grove Heights, have supported for the past decade: Congressman John Kline.

Every election cycle, Congressman John Kline enjoys victories in Inver Grove Heights of 60%+, yet Representative Joe Atkins also enjoys large margins of victory. While Joe is a nice guy by many peoples admission on both sides of the political spectrum, Joe's record does not reflect that he is working for Minnesotans and certainly does not reflect a desire to allow the people of Minnesota to hold the power.

Congressman Kline recently said of Paul Tuschy, "We need leaders like Paul in the State Legislature who will be committed to reducing the size and scope of government and empowering workers and job creators."

I ask you to consider, as you make your way to the polls, what you want your government to look like. If you are looking for more of the same ole' government as usual, then yes, by all means, vote for Joe. His record, which he conveniently hides from the public except for the same ole' fluffy mantra that he presents every cycle (with the same recycled lit pieces) does little to nothing to explain his voting record.

However, if you are ready to change the status quo, and have your voice heard, I ask you to vote for Paul Tuschy.
