Minneapolis, MN – Today, the Republican Party of Minnesota’s congressional district chairs issued the statement below in support of Jim Schultz, the endorsed candidate for attorney general:

“As leaders of our party’s grassroots organization, we all have a responsibility to come together and support our endorsed candidates to defeat the Democrats in November. Our State Convention’s delegates have spoken and we support the endorsement of Jim Schultz for attorney general. His commitment to justice and the rule of law represents our best chance in decades to take back the attorney general’s office.
