The presumptive Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris introduced her vice presidential pick at their first campaign stop. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz referenced his 12 years in Congress in his speech. “I worked across the aisle on veterans issues, on agriculture and ways to grow rural economies; I learned the value of compromise without compromising my values.” Walz represented Minnesota’s First District in southern Minnesota and was a member of the House Agriculture Committee. Walz is now in his second term as governor. “Minnesota’s strength comes from our values, our commitment to working together, to see past our differences, always to be willing to lend a helping hand,” said Walz. “Those are the same values I learned on the family farm.”
