GAZELKA: FIGHTING FOR MINNESOTA
Paul Gazelka is fighting to get Minnesota back on track. A leader in the state senate, he has seen Tim Walz's abuse of executive powers up close. Walz's disastrous agenda is hurting families and taking Minnesota in the wrong direction. Paul doesn't like where we are headed, and knows we can do better.
With his proven leadership, Paul is ready to win the battle for our future. He is a principled conservative with a strong record of championing Second Amendment rights, the unborn, and Minnesota families. Fighting back against Democrats' attempts to raise taxes, Paul has successfully led efforts to lower taxes for hard-working Minnesotans.
With determination to uphold the rule of law, Paul also worked to end emergency powers that were being abused to bypass the legislature. Moreover, he led efforts to remove history standards that failed to uphold our American ideals. There's more to do, and Paul is ready to fight for Minnesota families.

PAUL'S PRIORITIES TO GET MINNESOTA BACK ON TRACK!
Keeping Minnesotans Safe
The radical "defund the police" movement and Tim Walz's lack of leadership have led to an alarming increase of crime. Backing the blue, Paul has always stood with law enforcement and opposes radical Democrats' soft-on-crime policies.
Providing Tax Relief for Minnesota's Families
Paul successfully led efforts in the State Senate to give Minnesotans permanent tax relief. As governor, he will end the burdensome social security tax on Minnesota seniors and return more of your hard-earned money, starting with the nearly $8 billion state budget surplus we now have.
Protecting Life and the Second Amendment
Giving a voice to those who cannot speak for themselves, Paul has always protected life, from conception to natural death. In addition, he has always championed our way-of-life and every citizen's right to keep and bear arms—and that's why Paul has an A+ rating from the NRA.
Fighting for Education
The public school system must be made more accountable to parents and students. Paul has fought for parents' right to shape their children's education in public schools and school choice programs.
Securing Our Elections
Giving voters renewed confidence, Paul will work to ensure our elections are fair and secure by preventing fraud and abuse. Paul will fund state-issued IDs for those who cannot afford them to ensure full compliance with voter ID laws.
