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...

Senator Gazelka: Prepare for End Times

Review by John King “Marketplace Ministers are part of how the Lord will reach the peoples of the earth in these last days.” Author Paul Gazelka wrote this astonishing sentence near the conclusion of his 2003 book, Marketplace Ministers , but it is a good place to start here because it so neatly encapsulates the message of the book which is that business people, by spreading the Gospel, are in a unique position to prepare us, for the end of the world. Gazelka, an insurance salesman in Baxter, Minnesota, devotes chapters one through four to the story of his religious calling and how he came to adopt the “marketplace” as his personal ministry. He goes to some length, relying in part on the “Fivefold Path” from Ephesians to convince the reader that the marketplace is a legitimate pulpit to spread the Word. The remainder of the book, using personal anecdotes and biblical passages, he explains how a marketplace ministry would function and what its usefulness w...

Who do they represent?

Alexandria area State Representative Mary Franson has been in the news this week regarding her refusal to meet with a group of well mannered Alexandria high schoolers. My brother John sent the letter below to the Long Prairie Leader. It makes you wonder how many other politicians believe they represent only part of their constituency. -- ed. Dear Editor, It's a good idea to keep an eye on the legislators in order to see what kind of mischief they are up to. Even if they are not from your district. You may remember Mary Franson; she was our representative until a few years back when things were redistricted and she was sent across the county line to Douglas County to represent the folks over there. So I have more or less kept my eye on Mary. She caught my attention this week with a Twitter exchange she had with the Student Democratic Society at Alexandria High School. The students wanted to meet with her at her office out of a sense of civic responsibility...
