Friday, October 18, 2024

SAINT PAUL, Minn. – Rep. Dave Lislegard (DFL – Aurora) issued the following statement on the passing of former U.S. Representative Rick Nolan:

“Rick Nolan was a tireless fighter for Northeast Minnesota. Both here at home and in Washington, he always had the type of authenticity we should want in our elected leaders, with an unwavering commitment to putting middle-class families first. He worked tirelessly to protect everything that makes our region special, including an understanding of and support for the mining industry. He was always there for me personally whenever I had questions, had an idea, or needed counsel. I’ll miss him deeply.”
