FRANSON STATEMENT ON GOV. WALZ REOPENING GUIDANCE

ALEXANDRIA, MN – Representative Mary Franson, R-Alexandria, issued the following statement regarding the reopening guidance released today by the Walz administration.

“The governor clearly does not understand how we live life in the area I represent. He clearly does not understand that his policies are KILLING businesses and our way of life. My communities will not survive,” said Franson. “A business in my community, struggling to make their sales tax payment, requested a payment plan from the Governor’s administration. If they wanted a payment plan, they would need to forfeit their liquor license. Our government is acting like the Mafia and our governor is acting like Tony Soprano.”
