Anti-Police State Senator Grant Hauschild Got Officers Removed from Northern MN Schools

From cheering on rioters who burnt down Minneapolis in 2020 to letting criminals out early, Minnesota Democrats with the support of Hermantown-area State Senator Grant Hauschild have passed a series of anti-police, pro-crime laws. New laws Democrats passed under single party control of state government with the help of Grant Hauschild include:

 

·      Early release from prison.

·      Shorter probation for offenders.

·      Retroactive sentence reductions.

·      Sealed criminal records from the public.

·      Reduced penalties for crimes.

·      Weakened drug enforcement.

·      More limits on police searches.

·      New breaks for murder accomplices.

·      No life without parole for teenage murderers.

·      Less accountability for criminals — more restrictions on police.


Grant Hauschild took the Democrat pro-crime stance to the extreme when he voted for a bill that forced school resource officers out of Minnesota schools. As a result of heavy restrictions placed on school resource officers by Grant Hauschild and his Democrat colleagues, officers were removed from schools across Minnesota, including Grant Hauschild’s own district in St. Louis County.

 

Backlash against the laws passed by Grant Hauschild and his Democrat allies was swift. Republicans and law enforcement organizations quickly called for a special session to reconvene the legislature to fix the law and get resource officers back in school for the 2023-2024 school year. However, Grant Hauschild and his fellow Democrats didn’t think it was important and no special session occurred.



Grant Hauschild said in an interview with CBS at the start of the 2023-2024 school year that “come February when we go back in session, we can do a clean-up language then” rejecting the calls for a special session to immediately get officers back in schools and kicking the can down the road – leaving our students without security. By the time Grant got around to voting for a fix in Spring of 2024, school resource officers had been absent from St. Louis County, and other Northern Minnesota schools, for an entire year.

 

If the Northland wants to keep police officers on the streets and in their schools protecting the public, voters have to keep liberal politicians like Grant Hauschild out of the Capitol.
