Press Release: Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus & PAC Endorses Lisa Demuth for Governor

Saint Paul, MN – The Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus & PAC today announced our full endorsement of Lisa Demuth for Governor and Ryan Wilson for Lieutenant Governor.

Lisa Demuth has earned the trust of Minnesota gun owners through her consistent defense of the constitutional rights of law-abiding citizens. As Speaker of the Minnesota House, Demuth has helped lead the fight against efforts to restrict the right to keep and bear arms while advancing policies that focus on violent offenders rather than peaceable firearm owners.

“Lisa Demuth understands that the constitutional rights of Minnesota gun owners are not negotiable,” said Bryan Strawser, Chairman of the Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus & PAC. “She has been a steady and effective leader against efforts to criminalize ordinary Minnesotans for exercising their rights. At a time when those rights face continued attacks at the Capitol, Minnesota needs a Governor who will stand firmly with law-abiding gun owners.”

“Speaker Demuth has consistently listened to Minnesota gun owners and understood the difference between responsible firearm ownership and criminal violence,” said Anna Leamy, Director of Government Relations and Advocacy for the Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus. “She has stood against unconstitutional and ineffective gun control proposals and supported policies that respect the rights of law-abiding Minnesotans. Lisa Demuth and Ryan Wilson will provide the leadership Minnesota needs to defend those rights.”

The Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus is proud to support Lisa Demuth for Governor and Ryan Wilson for Lieutenant Governor and encourages our members and supporters across Minnesota to support their campaign.
