State ready to take over wolf management
As the Senate delegation representing northern Minnesota, we want to praise the federal government’s removal of grey wolves from the Endangered Species List. We have supported the removal because it is clear the wolf population in Minnesota has sufficiently recovered and no longer needs federal protection. In addition, we want to express our support for the Minnesota DNR to take over wolf management and we look forward to working with the DNR on plans for a hunting season on wolves.

We can do more than remember our veterans
On Veterans Day in 1985, President Reagan spoke of those who laid down their lives for our country. “Most of them were boys when they died,” he said, “and they gave up two lives – the one they were living and the one they would have lived.”

As someone who has spent a lifetime in rural health care, I am writing because I’m strongly opposed to the planned merger between two pharmacy benefit management companies, Express Scripts and Medco. This is an issue that rural Minnesota and our elected officials like Sen. Klobuchar and Franken should follow very closely.
