Walz leaving Congress for Governor’s race

March 27, 2017

A few minutes ago, Tim Walz announced that he is retiring from Congress in order to run for Governor of Minnesota.

“Tim Walz clearly realizes that it would be easier to run for Governor than to defend the failed liberal policies of Nancy Pelosi. We fully expect this seat to be a top pickup opportunity for Republicans in 2018. Not only did Walz barely scrape by in November, Trump won the District by 15 points.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Maddie Anderson
