“Access is greatly needed as we also hold on to our local traditions as we grow. Our rural communities are essential to the continual growth as a state and nation. It is important to ensure the basic needs are available to those who still reside in our rural communities as we continue to grow our urban ones as well.”
(Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey) “Small businesses do make up the local economies for our communities. As we have an economic diverse district with lake tourism, agriculture, and even industry, we need to provide the assistance needed to upkeep and revitalize our businesses and historical landmarks so that the memories of our past generations can be enjoyed by everyone today.”

“Minnesota families are dealing with the highest inflation levels in 40 years, soaring gas prices. I will fight to cut taxes for families, and help Minnesotans keep more of their hard-earned money. We should permanently end taxes social security benefits for our seniors, so Minnesota stops losing so many snow birds to warmer states.”
(Campaign website (jimjoymn.com)) “Agriculture is a big part of District 04B's economy. I will support our farmers and help get government off their back. Farmers are good stewards of their land, and don't need government micromanaging how they tend to their crops.”
