Klobuchar to Visit Eight Counties on Three-Day Rural Economy Tour in Northwest and Northern Minnesota

MINNESOTA - This week, U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar will be in Northwest and Northern Minnesota on a rural economy tour, where she will visit eight counties over three days. She will meet with local leaders and small business owners in Kittson, Koochiching, Lake of the Woods, Marshall, Norman, Pennington, Red Lake, and Roseau Counties. Her visits will include meetings with business owners, and stops to meet with local leaders about tourism, small business and economic development, health care access, and electricity infrastructure projects supported in part by federal funding.

"This week I will visit small businesses and child care centers, as well as electric co-ops and health care providers throughout rural Minnesota. I want to hear directly from Minnesotans about their challenges, particularly when it comes to household costs and child care access, and how we can improve local tourism and infrastructure. Making sure our rural areas can thrive is vital to Minnesota's strength as a state," said Klobuchar.

Every year, Klobuchar visits all 87 Minnesota counties.
