Impeachment Resolutions for Governor Walz and Attorney General Ellison

April 20, 2026

Impeachment Resolutions 

Friends and Neighbors,

From our conversations in town halls, over the phone, and via email, one thing is clear: Minnesotans demand accountability for the theft of $9+ billion in taxpayer money that has occurred under the corrupt leadership of Governor Walz and Attorney General Ellison.

Last week, in the Rules and Legislative Administration Committee, we discussed Impeachment Resolutions for Governor Tim Walz for corrupt conduct in office, and Attorney General Keith Ellison for corrupt conduct in office and crimes and misdemeanors. These are the first Impeachment Resolutions discussed in a legislative committee after being filed against a Constitutional Officer in Minnesota state history.

I have witnessed firsthand whistleblower testimonies in the Fraud Prevention and State Agency Oversight Policy Committee over the past two years. Whistleblowers have been penalized, stripped of their jobs, and personally targeted by the Walz Administration during his attempts to cover up the fraud epidemic.

The current administration has failed to adhere to and enforce Minnesota law. Numerous reports from the Office of the Legislative Auditor have delivered scathing accounts of non-compliance with the law, which has resulted in the loss of billions of taxpayer dollars to fraud. 

Frankly, at this stage, we do not know the full extent or the depth of the fraud and its connection to both Governor Walz and Attorney General Ellison. This is why the motion was made to send the Impeachment Resolutions to the Fraud Prevention and State Agency Oversight Policy Committee for a thorough investigation and report, to be delivered back to the House of Representatives by May 1, 2026. 

The Minnesota House of Representatives has the sole authority to bring forward Impeachment Resolutions, which require a majority vote of the House (68 votes to pass), while the Senate acts as the court. A two-thirds vote of senators present is required for ultimate conviction and removal.

Instead of joining the demand for accountability, House Democrats voted in lockstep against investigating the allegations delivered in the Impeachment Resolutions. The motion failed on a tie vote of 8-8. 

I will not stop pressing for accountability to restore the public's trust in their state government. 

Sincerely,

Stay Up-to-Date
