Why MN Conservatives Should Attend An American Majority Training

January 31, 2011

The results of last year’s elections were undeniably an improvement over the status quo in Minnesota.  No longer is the predominant mindset at the Capitol consumed with the entrenched belief that we “must” continue the unsustainable growth in government spending.  Instead, today, we have a legislature that is proposing and passing meaningful spending reductions to ensure a prosperous future for our state.

We, at American Majority-Minnesota, are excited to have played a minor role in contributing to this change in attitude, with several graduates of our training program now serving in the legislature.  In fact, we trained 33 Minnesota candidates, from school board to U.S. Congress, which won their races.  This number is nearly triple that of which were trained in the state by Wellstone Action, the well-established progressive training organization based in St. Paul.

So where do we go from here?  Well for starters, it is imperative that we don’t have a sense of satisfaction that we, in the conservative grassroots movement, have done our job and can move onto “other” things.  Instead, we need to build on the progress made and that all begins by electing true conservatives at the local level.

In 2011, our state has 32 municipalities (Bloomington, Minnetonka and St. Paul to name a few) that have seats up for re-election in the fall.  School board districts that will also have elections this fall include: Anoka-Hennepin, Bloomington, Eden Prairie, Edina and St. Paul.

So, does your city our school board have seats up for re-election this year?  More importantly, are they spending your taxpayer dollars wisely?

If not, and the overwhelming majority aren’t, you can do something about it and it begins by taking advantage of the trainings/resources that we provide at American Majority.  Whether you have interest in becoming a candidate or would like to be more effective at the grassroots level in electing conservatives into office, you will learn much by attending and will be glad you did.

So please consider coming to our next training at the Kelly Inn in St. Paul on February 19!  For more information and to register please click HERE.  And of course, if you have any questions don’t hesitate to contact us at 651-343-5558 or michael@americanmajority.org.

We look forward to seeing you on February 19!
