Reps. Walz, McCollum tout China's progress in climate change, tolerance in trip to Tibet

 

https://www.startribune.com/reps-walz-mccollum-tout-china-s-progress-in-climate-change-tolerance-in-trip-to-tibet/351187261

 

https://archive.ph/TarAw

 

WASHINGTON – Democratic Reps. Tim Walz and Betty McCollum touted China's progress in climate change, human rights and the push for Tibet's autonomy Tuesday.

 

Walz and McCollum spent last week there on a government-sponsored trip meeting with top government officials and Tibetan leaders. They traveled with Democratic Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and a handful of other lawmakers.

 

The week was spent in candid sometimes even heated discussions with the Chinese president and premier about press freedom and how China treats dissidents, the elected officials said.

 

Walz, who first traveled to China back in the late 1980s as a high school teacher, said the Chinese should be commended for its "spectacular" infrastructure.

 

"I think China rightfully feels a sense of pride on that … but I think it's safe to say the human rights aspects are lagging a little behind," he said. "In all fairness, I would have never imagined being in the deepest enclaves of the Chinese government having a debate about the Dalai Lama in the spirit of back and forth."

 

McCollum said she was sanguine about the Chinese partnership to work on climate change. The Chinese president announced at the White House in September a new national cap and trade program to start in 2017.

 

"The fact that the U.S. as the most developed country and China as a large developing country are coming to gether to do what we can to offset the harmful effects of carbon pollution is very, very empowering," she said.

Walz recaps Asia trip focused on fostering Minnesota ties

 

https://www.mprnews.org/story/2019/09/13/walz-recaps-asia-trip-focused-on-fostering-minnesota-ties

 

https://archive.is/UMNgP

 

Just back from a trip to Asia, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz said Friday that his state’s farmers remain in desperate need of a U.S. trade deal with China.

 

Walz recapped discussions he had with trading partners in Japan and South Korea, which continue to be a reliable destination for soybeans and other crops grown in Minnesota and across the Midwest. But he’s concerned that export markets that are closing amid a U.S.-China trade dispute that has caused tit-for-tat tariffs.

 

Walz said his delegation on the six-day trip heard from business leaders and government officials that Japan has a limited opportunity to accept more agriculture imports from Minnesota.

 

"There’s just no substitute for 1.6 billion consumers who are hungry to get our China trade negotiations normalized," Walz said. "There is not enough market in the rest of the world to absorb our capacity."

 

Walz said he picked up on uneasiness in other Asian nations about the tariff battle among two of the world’s economic powerhouses.

 

"At a time of chaos and unrest in trade," Walz said, "our Japanese and South Korean partners are looking for solid relationships with states, and Minnesota in particular, that share their values."

 

He said he spent plenty of time touting Minnesota’s educated labor force and work ethic as assets for companies looking to establish or expand their presence in the region.

 

The DFL governor spent time with officials from Minnesota companies already doing business in Japan, including Medtronic, 3M and Boston Scientific.

 

They also met with Korean companies with investments in Minnesota, including Doosan Group, which owns the Bobcat construction machinery company in Owatonna, and South Korea's largest food manufacturer, CJ CheilJedang Group, which owns the Schwan's food company in Marshall. They also met in Japan with officials from Kito Corporation, which owns Peerless Chain in Winona.

 

They also hosted a meeting with 40 companies in Japan that don't currently do business with Minnesota.

 

Back on home soil, Walz said his administration plans to re-evaluate where Minnesota has trade representatives.

 

Employment and Economic Development Commissioner Steve Grove, who accompanied Walz in Asia, said the focus is on nurturing relationships can be furthered through state trade outposts abroad.

 

"In a global economy to have someone all the time there to represent Minnesota makes a difference," Grove said. "We’ve looked both at markets where we have long-standing, deep trade relationships but also kind of high-potential markets where we think we can a shift or a change or an acceleration with a person on the ground there."

 

There are seven markets across the globe currently where Minnesota has some regular representation. The contractors help promote the state as a place to do business.

Gov. Walz, Lt. Gov. Flanagan both out of country on trade mission

 

https://kstp.com/kstp-news/top-news/gov-walz-lt-gov-flanagan-both-out-of-country-on-trade-mission/

https://archive.is/ILfoP

 

It’s a matter of routine in Minnesota gubernatorial administrations for governors to travel on international trade missions. The unusual aspect of this week’s trip to Japan by Governor Tim Walz is that Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan is also on the trip, putting the state’s top two elected officials more than six thousand miles from the State Capitol at the same time — a 13-hour flight.

 

“The reality is the lieutenant governor is the backup,” says Larry Jacobs of the University of Minnesota Humphrey School of Public Affairs. “She is the person who steps in if something happens to the governor. Having both of them on the same trip is just confusing and not something we’re accustomed to.”

 

The lieutenant governor has been posting on social media about the benefits of the trade mission to Japan. At least one follower responded by writing, “Shouldn’t one of you be in Minnesota in case something happens to the other one. Would seem to be common sense.”

 

Jacobs says we live in an era where major incidents are increasingly commonplace, from gun violence to officer-involved shootings to natural disasters.

 

“Who would handle an emergency if it were to break out in Minnesota?” Jacobs wonders. “We’ve got both the governor and lieutenant governor out of the state, not on the scene.”

 

In response to inquiries from 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS, a spokeswoman for Governor Walz sent a statement saying all of these things were considered.

 

“The Governor remains in charge and reachable no matter what state or country he is in,” the statement says. “They are following standard operating procedure and traveling in different vehicles and taking separate flights.”

 

Brian McClung, who traveled on three international trade missions with Republican Governor Tim Pawlenty, says communication is key, but having someone in the state in-person is, too.

 

“Our policy in the Pawlenty administration was that we always wanted to have the governor or lieutenant governor in the state,” he told 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS. “You just need to have your bases covered. You never know what might happen. And from our perspective, we just wanted to make sure that the governor or lieutenant governor was here to respond immediately to anything.”

 

McClung says an example from the Pawlenty administration is the day the 35W bridge collapsed in 2007 — a catastrophic event no one saw coming.

 

“Tim Pawlenty was right near the governor’s residence at that time, but Lieutenant Governor Carol Molnau was traveling to a conference in China and so of course we immediately contacted her, and she turned around and came back to Minnesota,” he says.

 

However, McClung says getting back from an international trade mission can take a lot of time, especially when you’re a 13-hour flight away.

 

“You’re flying commercial flights so it’s not like the governor has an Air Force One and they can just pick up and get somewhere. You’re at the whim of Delta’s travel schedule,” he says.

 

As for the trade mission itself, Governor Walz did announce a $45 million investment by Takeda Pharmaceuticals in their Brooklyn Park manufacturing plant. In 2022, the governor met with a trade delegation from Japan at Takeda’s plant. Lt. Gov. Flanagan has participated in a number of meetings in Japan as well, including with the Japanese Women’s Leadership Initiative where she says she learned “about how we can foster new opportunities for women in Minnesota.”

 

The governor’s trade delegation is due back in Minnesota on Friday.

GOP attacks Minnesota governor in $250M food fraud case

 

https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2022/sep/26/gop-attacks-minnesota-governor-in-250m-food-fraud-/

https://archive.is/wBdJc

 

ST. PAUL, Minn. — Republicans attacked Democratic Gov. Tim Walz on Monday after a judge took the rare step of disputing the administration’s claim that the judge prevented it from cutting off payments to Feeding Our Future, which is the target of a $250 million federal fraud case.

 

The GOP candidates for governor, attorney general and state auditor - Scott Jensen, Jim Schultz and Ryan Wilson - said Walz and other top Democrats should have done more to stop the alleged fraud before it became what federal prosecutors last week called the largest pandemic-related fraud in the country.

 

But the warring political sides disagree on how far Ramsey County District Judge John Guthmann went toward compelling the Minnesota Department of Education to resume payments to Feeding Our Future. A court statement issued late Friday said the judge “never issued an order” for the state to resume payments, but the department produced a hearing transcript showing the judge threatened to hold one attorney in contempt if the state failed to restore the flow of funds.

 

The Republican candidates largely accepted the judge’s version of events. Jensen called for an independent investigation to report back before he and Walz hold their next debate Oct. 18.

 

“What did Governor Walz know? When did he learn what he knew? When did he decide to use a district court judge as a scapegoat for his administration and the Department of Education? … Who is he trying to protect?” Jensen asked at a news conference.

 

The Walz administration defended itself against the GOP allegations, which raise a new issue in a campaign that has been dominated by abortion, crime and the economy.

 

“MDE blew the whistle on this fraud scheme. They detected it early and worked diligently to stop it,” the governor’s office said in a statement. “MDE repeatedly urged the federal government to investigate and they partnered with the FBI to ensure accountability - even as they fought Feeding Our Future’s sham lawsuit in court.”

 

Democratic Attorney General Keith Ellison’s office issued a statement saying it had been “deeply involved for two years in holding Feeding Our Future accountable.” It said the attorney general’s office worked closely with the education department as it shared its suspicions and evidence with the FBI.

 

“Without the Attorney General’s involvement alongside MDE in flagging that fraud and turning it over to the criminal investigative power of the federal government, there would likely have been no federal investigation or indictments,” the statement said. “The FBI has praised this cooperation.”

 

Forty-nine people have been charged in the alleged scheme to exploit the COVID-19 pandemic and steal $250 million from federal programs designed to provide low-income children with nutritious meals. The newest defendant was scheduled to leave the U.S. for Turkey but was arrested Monday by the FBI at Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport.

 

Many of the defendants are accused of creating companies that falsely claimed to be offering food to tens of thousands of children across Minnesota, then seeking reimbursement for those meals through the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s nutrition programs, which are administered in Minnesota by the state Department of Education. Prosecutors said the defendants used the money to buy luxury cars, property and jewelry.

 

Walz said Thursday that the Minnesota Department of Education’s hands were tied by a court order for it to resume food program payments, despite concerns the state had raised. And he said the FBI asked the state to continue the reimbursements while its investigation continued.

 

Jensen expressed skepticism that the FBI would have instructed the state to continue to make millions of dollars in fraudulent payments, and called on the agency to clarify.

 

Cyndi Barrington, a spokeswoman for the FBI’s Minneapolis field office, said the bureau does not comment on ongoing investigations.

 

Guthmann took the unusual step of pushing back late Friday. The state court system issued a statement with his authorization that said he never ordered the education department to resume payments to Feeding Our Future.

 

But the Minnesota Department of Education insisted late Friday that the judge left it no choice.

 

“The court made it clear that if MDE were to continue the legal fight to withhold payments, MDE would incur sanctions and legal penalties,” the department said in a statement.

 

The department also circulated a transcript of a hearing before Guthmann last year in which he said the department had failed to meet the legal tests necessary to halt the payments.

Minnesota Gov. Walz signs abortion bill decried by GOP as most ‘extreme’ in nation

 

https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2023/jan/31/minnesota-gov-tim-walz-signs-abortion-fundamental-/

https://archive.is/SDALo

 

Blue states are scrambling to protect abortion access in the wake of Roe v. Wade, but as far as Republicans are concerned, Minnesota has gone too far.

 

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz signed Tuesday a bill declaring abortion a “fundamental right” that passed without a single vote from Republicans, who called it the most “extreme” abortion legislation in the nation.

 

Democrats fast-tracked the Protect Reproduction Options Act after winning a one-vote majority in the state Senate in November, placing them in charge of both houses.

 

At the signing ceremony, the Democrat Walz said the state legislature “carried out the will of the people of Minnesota.”

 

“We’re now at the signing of a landmark reproductive freedom bill less than one month after taking our oaths of office,” said Mr. Walz. “And after last year’s landmark election across this country, we’re the first state to take legislative action to put these protections in place.”

 

The legislation guarantees the right to “reproductive health,” including abortion, sterilization, contraception and fertility services, but includes no gestational limits, parental notification requirements, or other restrictions on pregnancy termination.

 

“It is the most extreme abortion bill in the nation,” said Republican state Sen. Julie Coleman on Fox News.

 

During debate, Democratic legislators rejected more than 60 Republican amendments, including provisions to ban third-trimester abortions except to save the life of the mother; partial-birth procedures; sex-based abortions, and sterilization for minors.

 

“This bill not only allows for abortion for any reason through all nine months of pregnancy but what it does to strip away parental rights is abhorrent,” Ms. Coleman said. “It not only allows this for minors, but it also allows for minor sterilization without parental consent or notification.”

 

Minnesota Republicans accused Mr. Walz of reneging on his campaign’s assurance that he did not support abortion until birth.

 

“The bill the governor signed today provides no protections of any kind for women and families – including for infants born alive during botched abortions,” said Republican Party of Minnesota chairman David Hann. “Make no mistake, this extreme bill provides for taxpayer-funded abortion, on-demand, up until and even after birth.”

 

Among those who congratulated Mr. Walz for signing the bill was Vice President Kamala Harris.

 

“I applaud Gov. Walz for signing a bill codifying reproductive rights, including the right to abortion, into Minnesota state law,” she said. “State and local governments must continue to step up to protect reproductive health care for women everywhere.”

 

Minnesota already allowed abortion until viability under Doe v. Gomez, a 1995 Minnesota Supreme Court decision that found the state constitution protected the right to privacy, but the newly signed law enshrines the ruling in statute.

 

Democrats have also introduced legislation to codify a July court ruling striking down state laws limiting abortion access, including requirements for a 24-hour waiting period; parental notification for minors seeking abortions, and procedures to be conducted by a medical doctor.

 

The legislation was approved on a 34-33 vote in the Senate following a marathon 15-hour session Saturday. The House previously passed the bill by 69-65. All but one Democratic legislator voted in favor of the measure.

 

The Supreme Court’s June 24 decision in Dobbs v. Jackson struck down Roe and sent decisionmaking on abortion back to the states.

Minnesota governor signs ‘driver’s licenses for all’ bill

 

https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2023/mar/7/tim-walz-minnesota-governor-signs-drivers-licenses/

https://archive.is/vFg22

 

ST. PAUL, Minn. — Immigration status will no longer disqualify more than 80,000 people from getting Minnesota drivers licenses under a bill signed by Gov. Tim Walz on Tuesday.

 

Supporters of the effort, dubbed “driver’s licenses for all,” say it will improve public safety by ensuring that all drivers are licensed and insured, and have taken driver’s education courses. Backers included law enforcement, faith, business and immigrant rights groups.

 

“I feel incredibly proud of Minnesota,” Walz said at the signing ceremony, surrounded by dozens of immigrants and supporters of the change.

 

Eighteen other states grant licenses to residents regardless of immigration status, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.

 

The new law, which takes effect Oct. 1, reverses a 2003 change by then-Gov. Tim Pawlenty barring people without legal status from getting licenses, citing security concerns after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

 

“We’re going to erase 20 years of a bad policy and lift up the dignity of all Minnesota,” Walz said.

 

Applicants must still pass written and road tests and attest to their address in Minnesota. They won’t be asked for proof of U.S. citizenship or permanent residency status. But they must provide identifying documents such as an unexpired foreign passport, a consular identification document with a photograph or a certified birth certificate issued by a foreign jurisdiction.

 

Critics argued as the bill made its way through the Legislature that eliminating the need to prove citizenship could create opportunities for voter fraud. Walz scoffed at that, saying there hasn’t been a case in the last 20 years of a driver’s license being used for illegal voting.

LGBT PERVERSION: Gov. Tim Walz signs EO making Minnesota a sanctuary and “refuge” state for doctors to chemically and surgically mutilate children

 

https://www.medicine.news/2023-03-10-tim-walz-eo-minnesota-refuge-mutilation-children.html

https://archive.is/weXIE

 

f your state is not on board with the body butchering of innocent children into “transgenderism,” then head on over to Minnesota where Gov. Tim Walz, a Democrat, just signed an executive order making the “Star of the North” a “refuge,” or sanctuary state, for the transgender mutilation of children.

 

Walz eagerly affixed his signature to the order this week, rendering Minnesota as a destination state for kids who want to remove their breasts or penis in order to become their “true selves.” Walz has indicated that he is a strong proponent of “gender-affirming care,” which is increasingly coming under fire as parents reel over the damage being inflicted on their offspring.

 

“Today, Minnesota joins other states and a growing number of municipalities that have acted in solidarity with the LGBTQIA+ community,” Walz’s order states. “We stand with this community by maintaining a refuge for those who seek and provide gender affirming health care services.”

 

Tim Walz is a pervert

 

Walz has ordered all state agencies in Minnesota to help any child seeking transgender body butchering by “providing, assisting, seeking, or obtaining” the gender-bender procedures and drugs they require in order to “transition.” And Walz wants these agencies to do this “to the fullest extent of their lawful authority.”

 

Walz has also ordered various departments in the state bureaucracy to issue a “joint administrative bulletin” to health insurance companies regarding the coverage options for what he claims are “medically necessary” drugs and procedures.

 

“No state agency will comply with a subpoena issued in another state seeking information about a person or person’s child who travels to this state for gender affirming health care services related to potential child protection matters or criminal charges against a parent, guardian, or provider for seeking, obtaining, or providing gender affirming health benefits,” the order further states.

 

What remains unknown with the order is whether or not it allows a “person’s child” to travel to Minnesota to seek these drugs and procedures without their parents’ permission. By all appearances, Walz wants underage minors to sneak off to Minnesota to have their bodies surgically and chemically mutilated in secret, with him giving them permission to do so rather than their parents.

 

Arguably the most ominous aspect of Walz’s order is the “protection against extradition” verbiage. This language allows Walz to use “discretion to decline requests for the arrest or surrender” of anyone charged with a crime relating to “transgender” procedures in another state.

 

In other words, a doctor from Oklahoma, which now prohibits the transgender mutilation of children, could theoretically escape to Minnesota to avoid charges in Oklahoma, all with Walz’s blessing.

 

In justifying his new EO, Walz cited numerous supposedly “professional” organizations that also endorse gender “affirmation” in the form of chemical and surgical mutilation. These organizations include:

 

– The American Medical Association

– The American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry

– The American Academy of Pediatricians

– The Endocrine Society

– The Society for Adolescent Health and Medicine

– The American Psychological Association

– The American Psychiatric Association

– The World Professional Association for Transgender Health

– The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)

 

Even though the European counterparts to many of these organizations oppose the transgender mutilation of children, the American ones fully endorse it, as does Walz, who seems to have an obsession with destroying children’s bodies.

 

n the comments, someone quoted II Timothy 3, which describes what is currently happening as such:

 

“Understand that the last days will be dangerous times. People will be selfish and love money. They will be the kind of people who brag and who are proud. They will slander others, and they will be disobedient to their parents. They will be ungrateful, unholy, unloving, contrary, and critical. They will be without self-control and brutal, and they won’t love what is good. They will be people who are disloyal, reckless, and conceited. They will love pleasure instead of loving God. They will look like they are religious but deny God’s power. Avoid people like this. Some will slither into households and control immature women who are burdened with sins and driven by all kinds of desires. These women are always learning, but they can never arrive at an understanding of the truth.”

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz Signs Bill Allowing Abortion Up Until Birth

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) signed a bill on Tuesday enshrining the right to an abortion up until the point of birth, after the state Senate voted 34-33 in favor of the bill on Saturday following 14 hours of heated debate.

 

“Today we are not just codifying Roe v. Wade or Doe v. Gomez as the author has indicated,” Senate Minority Leader Mark Johnson (R-East Grand Forks) lamented after the bill passed the state senate on Monday. “We are enacting the most extreme bill in the country regarding youth sterilization, late-term abortions and public viability for a vast array of new reproductive rights.”

 

The legislation, known as H.F. 1 or the Protect Reproductive Options (PRO) Act, was written to “cement in state law the right to access reproductive health care options including abortion, birth control, family planning help, and sterilization."

 

The bill’s author, Sen. Jennifer McEwen (D) claimed the bill enshrines permanent abortion access across the state, no matter what state or federal courts may decide.

 

“The decisions of our courts, the upholding of our fundamental human rights, are only as strong as the judges that uphold them,” McEwen said. "We have a duty to answer the call of Minnesotans to truly protect those reproductive freedoms, to enshrine them not simply in case law, but in our statutory law. These are our values, this is the practice in Minnesota. This is what we believe.”

 

Meanwhile, Minnesota Concerned Citizens for Life co-executive director Cathy Blaeser compared the legislation to communist states such as China and North Korea, where abortion has long been used as a method of birth control.

 

“The PRO Act means a right to abort any baby for any reason at any time up to birth. It means that the elective killing of a human being in utero is perfectly legal even in the third trimester of pregnancy, when the child can feel excruciating pain and could live outside the womb. It means that parents have no right to know when their teenage daughter has been taken to undergo an abortion,” Blaeser said in a statement.

 

“Gov. Walz’s absolutist abortion policy puts Minnesota in the company of just a small handful of countries around the world, including North Korea and China," she continued. "It is extreme, inhumane, and harmful to women and children who deserve so much better.”
