ST. PAUL, MN—Rep. Sarah Anderson, R-Plymouth, Chair of the House State Government Finance Committee, issued the following statement regarding the resignation of Minnesota Sports Facilities Authority Chair Michele Kelm-Helgen.
"Chair Kelm-Helgen's resignation comes days after we learned that the MSFA—without proper authority—entered into million dollar contracts that continue a disturbing pattern of Democrats using this board to help their political allies. This is the People's Stadium, not the People Closest to the DFL Party's Stadium. House Republicans will continue to investigate the MSFA's activities and ensure that they are held accountable for breaching the public's trust and violating ethical principles. Our commitment is to everyday Minnesotans and we will continue to fight for them in this process."
