Zeleznikar and Skraba Take Oath of Office as 2025-2026 Legislative Session Begins

St. Paul, MN – Minneso­ta’s 2025 Legislative Ses­sion officially began Jan­uary 14th as Rep. Natalie Zeleznikar, R-Frendenberg Township, and Rep. Roger Skraba, R-Ely along with 65 other state representa­tives took the oath of office during a ceremony at the State Capitol in St. Paul.

“I am looking forward to another year representing you, your family, and our communities in St. Paul,” Zeleznikar said. “With a looming $5 billion deficit, it is imperative that all legis­lators come together to find solutions to ensure Minne­sota has a budget that ad­dresses the $500 million in fraud and deficit spending.”

Zeleznikar’s top priority for the first month of ses­sion is making Minnesota affordable which is one of the six pillars House Re­publicans will be focusing on this session. This in­cludes ensuring an energy plan that includes propane, natural gas, coal, wind and solar for reliable and af­fordable energy. Reducing taxes and ensuring no new taxes. Supporting family and free-standing childcare providers to grow. And en­suring a strong commercial tax base to build strong communities and lower the individual and family tax burden for property taxes which fund core services in our communities.
