August 17, 2025: From the Desk of Chairman Alex Plechash
The past few weeks in Minnesota politics have underscored a hard truth: when one party holds power for too long, corruption, arrogance, and lawlessness inevitably follow. The DFL has controlled all levers of government in St. Paul, and the results speak for themselves.
We’ve seen a sitting state senator convicted of a felony and refusing to step aside until it served her political interests. Another senator, arrested for a second DWI, raises questions about accountability and double standards. Add to that repeated ethical concerns surrounding DFL leadership in the Senate, and you begin to see a troubling pattern. This is not isolated behavior—it is what happens when politicians believe they are untouchable.
At the same time, Minnesotans are being robbed blind by systemic fraud. The Feeding Our Future scandal exposed hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars stolen on the Walz administration’s watch. More recently, DHS programs riddled with fraud had to be shut down overnight. Governor Walz and his allies looked the other way until federal prosecutors forced their hand.
This is not leadership. It is neglect. And it erodes the public’s trust in government.
Minnesota deserves better. We want leaders who uphold the law, who put kids before politics, and who foster an economy where innovation and entrepreneurship can thrive again.
And it starts today in Senate District 47, where Dwight Dorau is running to replace convicted felon Nicole Mitchell. We have a real chance to win this seat and take control of the Minnesota Senate. And if Ruth Bittner can win the open House seat in 34B, Republicans will take control of the House. These are not just campaigns—they are turning points.
My challenge to every Republican reading this: get to work. We have the tools for you to make voter contacts from your home. If you are able, join the hundreds of other GOP supporters knocking doors, dropping literature, and showing up in your community. Complaining from the sidelines is no longer an option for our party.
The contrast is clear: the DFL’s corruption and radical agenda have left Minnesotans disillusioned and frustrated. Our mission is to give them something better—real solutions, honest leadership, and a government they can trust again.
This is our moment. Let’s seize it.
