Hering seeks DFL endorsement



Hello Friends and Neighbors,

My name is
Alex Hering and I am seeking the DFL endorsement to represent Minnesota State House District 9A.

My wife Jill and I moved to Pillager over twenty years ago, raised two daughters and own a general contracting business. Over the years we have watched the region suffer plant closings, a dot.com crash, then a total housing financial credit meltdown.




I was optimistic as the Affordable Care Act came together that our family wouldn’t be meeting the maximum out-of-pocket expense as we had every year, on top of the premium jumping 10% consecutively. But our Republican legislators locked up and wouldn’t sit down to work out what we Minnesotans need in order to make healthcare affordable for everyone. I will work to protect affordable healthcare for all Minnesotans. I will fight to protect healthcare assistance at the state level regardless of what may happen in Washington.

Area citizens have expressed concerns to me in the following areas which I will represent as your elected member to the Minnesota House of Representatives:

*Agricultural assistance when and where needed *Affordable Healthcare for all
*Fair and equitable funding to educational programs Pre-school through higher education
*Livable wages for workers *Affordable and safe childcare *Food assistance for those in need *Investment in High Speed Internet *Road and bridge improvements
*Environmental Conservation Programs and support of protecting clean waters
*Financial protection for seniors *Affordable housing at all levels


You will see me actively participating in town hall meetings, attending DFL sponsored events, door knocking, and promoting the DFL ideals in area parades.

Let us all walk in the foot steps of John Lewis

By John King In Selma, Alabama, on Sunday, March 7, 1965, John Lewis, standing in the lead of a long line of marchers, looked down from the crest of The Edmund Pettus Bridge at the line of police armed with clubs, whips and truncheons and said, “I am going to die here.” Lewis intended to lead the marchers from Selma to the capital Montgomery, to demand access to voting for Black people in Alabama. Sheriff Jim Clark lowered his gas mask and led the deputies, some on horseback and some on foot, into the line of marchers. Under swinging clubs and hooves trampling, Lewis was the first to go down. Women and children were not spared. Choking and blinded by tear gas, they were struck by clubs and truncheons wrapped with barbed wire. Lewis, with a fractured skull and a severe concussion, almost did die. The nearby Good Samaritan Hospital did not have enough beds to care for the injured marchers. A nation watched in horror as news footage of that bloody day appeared on T

More Republican dirty tricks

  As a Blue Dog Corporate Democrat, 7th District Rep. Collin Peterson’s votes in Congress go against the beliefs and convictions of progressive voters in our district. I’m one of those progressive 7th District voters. Like most average voters I rarely actually encounter my Member of Congress. However, I recall three encounters with Rep. Peterson over the many years I’ve been stuck with him. I met him at Mikey’s Restaurant, on Main Street in Long Prairie, when he was first campaigning for a seat in Congress. We were both young then and he was full of energy and inspired in me a sense of hope for positive change. Besides, I’d met the Republican incumbent. He was an older man who, it seemed, was operating on dead batteries. I was happy to vote for the energetic Peterson. Some years later I was a delegate to the DFL District convention in Bemidji. Peterson opposed a woman’s right to choose abortion. He was being challenged by a woman who supported the right to that choice. I gave my

Step aside Republicans; Minnesotans want electric vehicles

Late last month Senator Paul Gazelka, the Republican leader of the Senate, told the Minnesota Reformer that the Republican controlled Senate would likely fire the acting Commissioner of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, Laura Bishop, if the Agency, at the behest of the Governor, went ahead with the Clean Car Rule. The rule would require automakers to increase the number of electric vehicles they deliver to Minnesota auto dealers. Gazelka told The Reformer that he’d had “a conversation” with Bishop about the rule. Bishop has not been confirmed by the Senate. Gazelka, and his Republican colleagues, claim that electric vehicles are too expensive and that the rule would be a burden to Minnesotans. Gazelka, and the rest of his Party are wrong. They aren’t paying attention to the economics of EV ownership and they are not paying attention to consumer preferences. Way back in September 2019, Consumer Reports reported on a study of Minnesotans they had done in collaboration with the
