MN House: Shelly Christensen in 39B

From her website:
By the year 2020 the population of seniors in Minnesota will be just under 1 million. Seniors will be the largest share of population state wide. There will be more seniors in 2035 than there will be school children. Seniors are dependent on affordable healthcare, including common sense prescription pricing. They will require sound transportation systems to improve mobility and more access to home-care. Shelly supports substantial investment to ensure that our seniors have adequate support services. There is a growing need for personal care assistants, adult day care services, medical supplies and equipment and customized living spaces that allow seniors to stay in the home.
This district isn’t that red, and it’s unfortunate that Rep. Kathy Lohmer (R-Stillwater) keeps getting reelected. She got off on the wrong foot, way back in 2012, with "Car-Wrap Gate," among other things, but has since then pursued her religious-right obsessions in the legislature in a more low-key way. Except for being part of the "Muslims are infiltrating our caucuses" thing, which actually seems to be a bigot badge of honor in the MN GOP, right now.
