AAF: Tim Walz’s Radical Record
“Don't ever shy away from our progressive values. One person's socialism is another
person's neighborliness." — Tim Walz on “White Dudes for Harris” Call, 7/29/2024
Fanned Flames of BLM Riots:
• “Governor Walz had the ability and duty to use force and law enforcement to stop criminal
violence, but he did not. Governor Walz was not willing to do what was necessary to stop the
rioting right away because he was having a philosophical debate about whether the use of force
should be used to stop violence.” — 2020 Minnesota Senate Report (link)
• “Allowed his adult daughter to access confidential information that she disseminated to general
public and rioters,” which unnecessarily endangered police and National Guardsmen (link)
Turned MN into a Murder Capital:
• During his time in office, the state murder rate has spiked by more than 50 percent (link)
• Allowed violent criminals to burn down property all over Minneapolis with no recourse, yet
approved of the 90-day imprisonment of Lisa Hanson for keeping her small business open
during COVID lockdowns (link)
Cut Funding for Pregnant Women, Pushed Abortion-On-Demand:
• Signed a bill allowing abortion up to birth (link)
• Defunded pregnancy resource centers that support mothers (link)
• Eliminated laws requiring informed consent, laws requiring doctors to treat infants born alive
after abortion, and laws prohibiting doctors from coercing women to have abortions (link)
Turned MN into “Trans Refugee State”:
• Signed legislation allowing children to be taken from their parents if parents don’t support their
minor child receiving life altering surgeries or supposed medical treatments (link)
• His Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan wore a “protect trans kids” shirt with a knife on it, two weeks
before the Covenant School shooting in Nashville, TN (link)
Cracked Down on Churches:
• During COVID, he reopened bars and kept churches closed, until the Minnesota Catholic
Conference and the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod forced Walz’s hand (link)
Exacerbated the Border Crisis
• Ran for Governor on a platform of turning Minnesota into a sanctuary state (link)
o Under his watch, an illegal alien killed three Minnesotans in front of two young children.
• Signed a bill into law allowing illegal immigrants to obtain Medicare and driver’s licenses,
paving the way for them to vote in elections (link)
Boosted Climate-Theater ‘Unicorn Energy’
• Required Minnesota to generate all its electricity from carbon-free sources by 2040 (link)
• Implemented an electric vehicle mandate even more radical than Joe Biden’s (link)
Killed Innovation in Life-Saving Medicine
• Created a price-capping prescription drug board, killing new innovation in medicine
