The Desire to Serve

In 1986, Janet Jackson, pop star and sister to Michael Jackson, released her single “What Have You Done for Me Lately?”  A smash hit.  Right now, we are in midst of the final days leading up to the midterm elections, where we all have a choice for the next leaders.  I hope you join me in voting for Erik Osberg for Congress and his leadership for Minnesota’s 7th Congressional District.

Mr. Osberg shows up for people.  Since March 2025, he has traversed this region, all 38 counties, meeting with people, showing gratitude for their questions.  Showing empathy for their situations.  Mr. Osberg means what he says, and he wants to use his problem-solving skills as a community advocate to do just that: to show up for folks just like you and me to help them to a better place.  I know this sounds vague, but Mr. Osberg has the skills to approach problems and challenges facing western Minnesota with grit.  A better place is within reach.  We, as constituents, just need to reach out, vote, and grab our heart’s desire.

Look Erik Osberg up.  Go to his website eriksosberg4congress.com and learn about his plans to follow the Constitution and rule of law.  Do a good turn for another.

Soon, we won’t have to sing the refrain of Janet Jackson’s song.  We can revel in the reality of our new tomorrow.  So, on the morning of November 4th, make sure to wake up with your dream reality.

Vote Erik Osberg for Congress because “We Can Do Better.”
