When one willfully commits a wrong, the first step is to make amends. I suggest the three Minnesota Republican congressmen Reps. Pete Stauber, Tom Emmer and Jim Hagedorn make amends to the people of Minnesota for the wrongs committed by their decision to sign the legal brief in support of a failed lawsuit to the Supreme Court attempting to overturn the election outcome in four swing states and essentially the entire election for President Donald Trump. ( All Minn. Republicans in Congress backed suit, front page, Dec. 12.) Emmer, Stauber and Hagedorn, who have sworn to defend the Constitution and represent the people of Minnesota in Congress, demonstrated a willingness to put the political interests of Trump and themselves ahead of the integrity of a U.S. election and the will of the voters.
