“ Emmer and the other seven Republican House leaders voted against establishing a national commission to investigate the January 6, 2021 attack on the United States Capitol Complex. Thirty-five House Republicans and all 217 Democrats present voted to establish such a commission.”
* Emmer opposes abortion rights
* opposes legislation to combat school bullying against gay and lesbian young people
* called climate science "Al Gore's climate porn"
* proponent of cryptocurrency
Ugh.
