Paulsen Media - May, 2017

Letter: Paulsen should tell his constituents where he stands

Rep. Erik Paulsen does not seem to respect his constituents. Take the American Health Care Act. Asked the Congressman's position, for days staff in D.C. and Eden Prairie couldn't say. On Thursday, May 4, staff revealed Paulsen was a 'yes.'

Letter: Paulsen brought criticism on himself

Athens had Socrates. Eden Prairie has Rick Wall. Plato said Socrates described himself as a "gadfly" sent to torment the people of Athens by asking uncomfortable questions and goading the citizens into self-examination. Eden Prairie has Wall's April 21 "Sure is a lot of Paulsen Bashing" letter.

Readers Write: U.S. Rep. Erik Paulsen's health care vote, hearings on Russian influence

Paulsen’s claptrap counterpoint attempts to justify his support for the health care bill recently passed in the House. Much that he wrote is simply wrong. But what he does not say is more telling. He does not admit that the bill robs Medicaid of $880 billion over the next 10 years, threatening the health of millions of lower-income folks.

Letter: Will leaders stand up to Trump?

As someone who's been deeply troubled by the administration in general and by the firing of FBI Director Jim Comey in particular, I was cautiously heartened by Rep. Erik Paulsen's somewhat tepid statement calling for an independent investigation. Words are important, and so this is a decent start.

Letter: Trump is reason for Paulsen bashing

To the writer of "Sure is a lot of Paulsen bashing," You had some questions about letters criticizing Erik Paulsen, and as the author of one of those letters I wanted to answer. Why are there so many people speaking out since the election?

Letter: Paulsen faces away from constituents

What an appropriate picture! Erik Paulsen's back facing the camera (Edina Sun Current May 4). That's the Paulsen way. The guy doesn't host town halls or take questions from Minnesota Public Radio. Why? Because he voted for the unvetted and vindictive Trump-Ryan health care joke and is afraid.

Letter: Paulsen follows President Trump

Congressman Erik Paulsen has made it clear to his constituents in the Minnesota 3rd District that he is little more than a follower of President Donald Trump and the Republican Party. His recent votes, especially on the American Health Care Act, have shown that he is willing to put party over the good of the Minnesotan 3rd.

Letter: Trump's talk heightens concerns

Thank you for printing "Sure is a Lot of Paulsen Bashing" by Rick Wall in the April 2o Letters to the Editor. The writer adeptly illustrates several examples of America's political engagement that can be improved: citizen participation in the electoral process and the quality of political discourse.

Objecting to Rep. Paulsen being described as 'moderate'

In reference to your May 3 article, "Two Minnesota U.S. House seats will start next campaign as toss-ups, says Inside Elections": As a newly awakened moderate voter, I take issue with the following statements in this article: "... moderate pro-business Republicans like ...

Dear Reps. Paulsen, Emmer and Lewis: Spare us the crowing over your 'health' bill

Dear Reps. Erik Paulsen, Tom Emmer and Jason Lewis: Thank you so much for your news releases praising the passage of the American Health Care Act. This is the first time in my career that I have received political suicide notes from sitting members of Congress.

'Sleep well': After Trumpcare vote, Erik Paulsen's Facebook page is a shitshow | City Pages

And, let us safely assume, for the foreseeable future. After yesterday's healthcare vote, which found Paulsen among the 217 Republican "yea" votes to pass the Trumpcare/Ryancare/tax cut/services cut healthcare plan, Paulsen issued a statement explaining his support. His enraged constituents stood ready, and quickly tore his statement to tatters with their pitchforks.
