Rep. Melissa Hortman

June 14, 2025

Absolutely horrible news today about Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband. We worked with Rep. Hortman for years on passenger rail issues. She was a forward thinker when it came our mission and cause along with transit for the entire state. In our opinion, she was a very effective politician and well respected. This is a huge loss for the state of Minnesota. Our sincere condolences for the Hortman family.
