Jobs
- Excerpt: "We can create better economic opportunity by investing in worker training and keeping higher education affordable so that our workforce remains highly skilled and competitive."
Taxes and Economy
- Excerpt: "We need tax policies that are fair and transparent. We must bring tax fairness and fiscal responsibility back to Minnesota."
Health Care
- Excerpt: "Our health care system—if it is a system at all—is enormously complex, so we must address the problems on many fronts."
Education
- Excerpt: "Our state must take much bolder steps to protect this precious resource. We must insure that our schools and teachers get the resources they need to give all Minnesota students equal opportunities to succeed."
Vikings Proposals
- Excerpt: "Public money should go to private enterprise only where the investment is truly for public, not private, benefit. In my view, the Vikings stadium proposals are great for the team owners but unfair to the taxpayer."

Scorecards
A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
