Rep. Erik Paulsen followed the classic congressional playbook: Score a committee spot, rack up bipartisan accomplishments, raise millions in campaign cash and help write a major tax law delivering tangible gains back home.

The tax law isn’t popular among Americans — and neither is the president who signed it. Wall Street Journal

2018 Election — Secretary of State
In the Minnesota secretary of state race, we support Steve Simon, who has held the position since 2015. A member of the DFL, Simon has the right priorities for the office: expand access to voting, remove barriers to voting and make business services as streamlined as possible. Earlier in his career, Simon worked as an assistant attorney general and a lawyer in private practice. He also served in the Minnesota House. Simon deserves to stay in the position.
