314 Action Fund endorses Jake Johnson
314 Action Fund today endorses Jake Johnson for Minnesota’s 1st Congressional District. Earlier this year, 314 Action named MN-01 as one of the top under-the-radar races to watch.
“As a high school math teacher, Jake is a natural problem-solver. As Republicans stand by while this administration spends billions on endless wars while slashing funding for health care—the numbers in Washington just aren’t adding up,” said Shaughnessy Naughton, President of 314 Action. “From the classroom to Congress, we desperately need leaders like Jake with real-world experience and expertise we can count on. We’re proud to endorse Jake and look forward to supporting his campaign.”
“For too long, I’ve watched my students and their families struggle to get by as the rich get richer,” said Jake Johnson. “As a kid who grew up on food stamps and Medicaid, programs that my congressman Brad Finstad voted to take away, I understand the reality that Minnesotans are facing just to make ends meet. In Congress, I will never stop working to lower everyday costs for families and farmers, and solve problems like we do in my math classroom every day. I’m honored to be endorsed by 314 Action, an organization that understands the importance of electing STEM leaders, and look forward to working with them."
