Friends,

Thank you for your continued support and encouragement as we work together to bring common sense back to St, Paul.  It is an honor to serve you and bring your voice to the Capitol.

When you elected me to serve in the legislature two years ago, we were in the midst of economic hardship and social unease.  Two years later, and after another cycle of Democrat control in the legislature and in Washington, families and businesses are still struggling to achieve economic recovery and the assault on our liberties continues.  We deserve better.

I am committed to listening, acting and leading to renew the commitment to responsible government and give voice to the common sense priorities of the people of Andover and Ham Lake.

During my first two years in the legislature, I protected our families and job creators from over $1 billion in new taxes proposed by the Democrats.

I acted on behalf of all Minnesotans to help create jobs, grow existing businesses and foster a friendlier business climate in our state by signing onto the Jobs bill that included angel investment and research and development tax credits.

I listened to your distress over the national health care proposals and responded with the Health Care Freedom Act.  When Democrats in St. Paul tried to impose the same infringements on our liberty, I continued to stand up for your rights.

After hearing concerns from parents and local officials, I acted to implement lower residential speed limits to protect our children and make our neighborhoods safer.

Looking ahead, I am dedicated to help lead our area and all of Minnesota back to prosperity.  I have tremendous confidence in the hardworking job creators, workers and families across our area and throughout this state. 

I know that when we reduce government spending, open the door to economic opportunity and empower the people—the fourth and most important branch of government—we will achieve the recovery and prosperity we’ve been waiting for.

Hearing from you by e-mail, letter, phone, or in person is the highlight of my position.  I hope all of you will contact me regarding any issue of importance to you.  If you are planning a trip to the Capitol, please call my office and I will do my best to meet with you.  You can contact me and sign up for my e-newsletter at rep.peggy.scott@house.mn.

Thank you again for your continued support, and be sure to keep in touch.  Together, we will bring common sense back to St. Paul and prosperity back to Minnesota.

Sincerely,

Peggy Scott
