Clark to Run for 6th District Congressional Seat !
Increasing challenges and great opportunities are the way Senator Tarryl Clark describes the potential future for the 6th District, and that is why she announced her candidacy for the 6th District Congressional Seat this past week.
Senator Clark realizes that in the past few years the opportunities seem to have slipped away - opportunities to build our local infrastructure, to modernize our transportaion system, and to create good jobs and a strong business climate.
Knowing that it's time to deliver more than a sound bite, or create controversy, or work the talk show circuit, Sentor Clark states that she is ready to put our community's interest first - to fight for Minnesota's working families, seniors, children, small business owners, and veterans.

Haws Receives Legislative Leadership Award from the Trust for Public Land St. Paul, MN - State Representative Larry Haws, District 15B, was named one of the Trust for Public Land's first-ever Legislative Leadership Award recipients. State Rep. Haws has brought a thirty-two year regional park history to the state legislative table. As Saint Cloud Park Director, Haws developed the Saint Cloud national recognized park system. Under his leadership the park system grew from 33 parks and 400 acres to 90 parks and 1,000 acres.
Park Director Haws established the Minnesota original "Adopt a Park Program" that recruited an army of 2,000 volunteers to plant, paint and clean city parks, saving thousands of tax dollars. With this background Rep. Haws has been able to speak factually on the importance of regional city and county parks that serve citizens not served by state or metro parks. He authored and passed legislation that will develop a five-year plan and a 25-year framework for non-metro regional parks.
"The Trust for Public Land is pleased to present this leadership award to Rep. Larry Haws," said Minnesota State Office Director Susan Schmidt. "Rep. Haws has initiated efforts to insure that regional parks and natural lands throughout the state - areas such as St. Cloud - benefit from the new Clean Water, Land and Legacy Amendment funding."
"It is an honor to be a part of the great success of The Trust for Public Land that is evident in the advances being made in our parks and natural land and protection throughout Minnesota," said Rep. Haws.
Haws came to Saint Cloud as a math teacher and a coach. He worked in the Saint Cloud Park Department and was a Park Director for 18 years. Haws also served as Stearns County Commissioner for seven years and he is now our State Representative for the Saint Cloud area.
