Why Rene Ramirez?


What’s at stake for Minnesota families in 2008?                                                    


We face a movement within our state that promotes more taxation, redistribution of wealth and dependency on the government. We must stand firm with a candidate that holds true to our values and beliefs. This election is going to be about who can be trusted to defend our interests in St. Paul? Who can we depend on to hold firm against the growing tide of taxation? Who can we believe in that will not sell out our working class families or submit to the will of special interest? The choice we must make this November will affect not only our pocket books but also the rights of parents to send their children to the schools of their choice.  The current incumbent has voted for public funding for illegal immigrants to attend our colleges at in state rates, has voted to increase Minnesota working families tax burden to one of the highest in the nation and believes in polices that allow voter fraud to thrive in Minnesota. Can we accept this any longer?

 

Why does it matter who’s in office when it comes to job creation?

With the current state of high taxation, high cost of living and an increasing anti business environment the future of our job market is in danger. We have a choice between two individuals, one advocating tax cuts across the board and policies that make Minnesota a competitor in where businesses want to invest or the other who advocates higher taxation, higher cost of living and a environment that taxes businesses out of our state. With our current tax policies that punish productivity and in state wealth, it is only a matter of time before the individuals who have the ability to create jobs leave Minnesota for more tax friendly states and take the jobs they would have created with them.

 

Who can we trust to control the illegal immigration situation in Minnesota?

Illegal immigration is of great concern in our state. Our labor force is being under cut by companies who hire illegals are near slave wages. Our hospitals are having to deal with illnesses once thought under control and financially burdened. Our roads are becoming extremely dangerous due to unlicensed drivers.  Our streets are being over run by drug and gang violence. I advocate the following solutions. Hold accountable companies who hire illegals by imposing harsh fines and leave open the possibility of jail time, remove any and all welfare funding to those who can not confirm their legal status and withhold state funding to any city who is classified as a sanctuary city. My opponent's record in the house shows he supports the status quo on illegal immigrants.

 

Who can we trust?

The incumbent has a record which clearly states a history of advocating for the rights of special interest. His stance does not allow for common sense legislation to prevail in the house and promotes a philosophy that Minnesotans reject. Minnesota families have had enough of an elitist class running government and does not listening to the common man. We have a candidate who is not a lawyer or someone who has been bought off by special interest, a common man who works a 50 hour week to provide for his family and has as much to gain from common sense legislation as you do. This election we can send a message to St. Paul that we will no longer accept elitist running our government and it is time to return government to the people. The choice is clear; on one hand we have a philosophy of growing the dependence on government, high taxation and anti business. The other choice is of freedom, personal responsibility and ability to create jobs and wealth. Join us today to take back our government!
