Angie Craig on Government Reform |
A: I have pledged to hold a monthly public town hall style event as a member of Congress in order to continually hear about the priorities and concerns of families in the Second Congressional District and answer questions.
A: What is the responsibility of our elected officials to encourage Minnesotans to engage in respectful, civil discussions?
A: Our government is broken. We need to stop playing politics with people's lives and our economy.
Q: What steps will you take to build cooperation between parties and unify the country?
A: I will work with anyone, regardless of party, to find bipartisan solutions that will benefit families in the Second District. Throughout my campaign, I have been meeting with local mayors--Republicans, Democrats and Independents, to learn about their communities' needs. I will continue to do so when I am in Congress as a representative for all families in our district.

Legislative outcome: Passed House 234-193-5 on 3/8/19; received with no action in Senate thru 12/31/2019
