Kistner releases statement on exit from the 2nd Congressional Race. “Thank you to everyone who has supported our campaign in 2020, 2022, and 2026. This is not the end of our work together!” #mn02 #CD2

Wishing a peaceful Palm Sunday to all who observe.

Keeping our nation safe is one of the most crucial responsibilities of a member of Congress. That means clear priorities, steady leadership, and a strong commitment to defense.

Housing policy should put families first. In Congress, I will work to protect single-family homeownership from large corporations, ensuring the American Dream is available for generations to come.

Busy week on the campaign trail! 🇺🇸 Started the week attending Natalie Barnes for state house campaign kickoff and on Wednesday attended the debate with three candidates for the Governor of Minnesota and wrapped it up today by attending two conventions back-to-back. Grateful for the chance to meet so many dedicated conservatives who care deeply about the future of our state and our country. The energy and support out there are incredible — let’s keep the momentum going! 💪🇺🇸 #mn02 #CD2

For generations, owning a home meant stability and opportunity. Today, that goal feels out of reach for millions of Americans. In Congress, I will work to ensure that the dream of a house and white picket fence, is attainable for every American.

Honored to win today’s straw poll at the Scott County convention with 66% support🇺🇸 Thank you to everyone who showed up and support our vision. The momentum is real—let’s keep moving forward. 💪 #CD2 #mn02

Rising prices are making everyday life harder for families. Government should focus on lowering costs and helping people get ahead.

No one should have to choose between getting care and paying the bills. Healthcare should be affordable and accessible.

Affordable, accessible healthcare is essential for strong families and a stronger Minnesota. In Congress, I will work with the FDA, the MAHA Movement, and the Trump Administration to ensure every American is cared for and our healthcare system puts patients first.

Owning a home is part of the American Dream, but too many families are stuck renting or moving back in with parents because housing costs are out of reach. In Congress, I will fight for policies that protect homeownership and put families first.

Thank you to everyone who came out to SD57 convention yesterday. Real change doesn’t start in Washington — it starts with people like you who care enough to get involved. Together, we’ll keep fighting for stronger communities, and an America that works for hardworking families again. Thank you for being part of the movement. Let’s keep pushing forward. 💪 #MN02 #CD2

Taxpayer dollars should be spent carefully, transparently, and with clear purpose. Minnesotans deserve a government that respects their hard work and spends responsibly while ensuring proper accountability and oversight.

If you live in State Senate District 57, your convention is this Saturday! I look forward to seeing you there!

Economic opportunity depends on reliable infrastructure, fair trade, and policies that allow Minnesota businesses and workers to compete and succeed.

Presidents’ Day is a reminder that leadership is a responsibility, not a title. Our nation is strongest when service, integrity, and the Constitution come first.

Minnesotans deserve communities where families feel safe and law enforcement has the support needed to do their jobs.

I know firsthand how difficult it is to navigate the VA process. The men and women who serve our nation should have the best medical care in the world. In Congress, I will work with the Trump administration to reform the VA and take care of those who keep this country safe.

Education is one of the most important investments we make as a state and a nation. Strong schools strengthen Minnesota’s workforce, communities, and future.

Minnesotans deserve leadership that is prepared, clear-eyed, and committed to defending this country and the people who call it home.
