Democratic gains in Minnesota’s legislative elections will bring new faces to the State Capitol. “This is an opportunity for our farmers and ranchers across the state to get out there, engage and meet with their new legislators,” said Loren Dauer, public policy director, Minnesota Farm Bureau. With farm margins tightening and input costs remaining high, Dauer says farmers need to make sure their concerns are heard in St. Paul. “Making sure and raising those concerns with our legislators is very important.”
