Tim Walz is an excellent choice for the working class. I'm excited and will be all in for a Harris-Walz ticket.

Tim Walz's accomplishments as Governor:

  • Universal free school lunches
  • Paid sick and medical leave
  • Banned non-compete agreements
  • Expanded protections for workers at Amazon warehouses
  • Increased wages for Uber and Lyft workers
  • Legalization of cannabis
  • Achieved substantial police reform including bans on chokeholds, peace officers and deescalation training, and an independent Bureau of Criminal Apprehension
  • 100% clean energy by 2040

It will be Shapiro or Kelly. I'm leaning Shapiro cuz they want to lock up PA, but I really like Kelly.
