Rep. Mike Wiener Responds to Governor Walz’s Announcement He Will Not Seek Reelection

St. Paul- Representative Mike Wiener (R- Long Prairie) released the following statement reacting to news that Governor Walz will no longer seek a third term as governor. 

"The fraud will not stop with just him. We will need lots of oversight and work to correct all the fraud left in his wake. Fixing the fraud will take a full housecleaning, not a reshuffle of leadership in a system that has already lost billions. Minnesotans and their families deserve to keep their hard earned money and not lose anymore to fraud."
