I'm a retired Green Beret, an unapologetic Christian, and a fierce America First Conservative. I'm ready to finally stand up for the American people and rescue the nation we all know and love.</p><h1>My Fellow Americans,</h1><p>Our nation is under attack. Not from a foreign enemy, but from those within our borders who want to run our country into the ground. With rapid inflation on the rise, illegal immigrants pouring across the border, and our fundamental rights being trampled on, we need a fighter who knows what it takes to win.<br /><br />Let's be clear: politicians aren't fighters. They only care about staying in office, collecting their taxpayer-funded paycheck, and smiling for the camera. As a Green Beret, I've fought for our nation many times before.

I am Nathan Wesenberg. I was born and raised in Little Falls Minnesota and still reside here with my wife, Doctor Jennifer Wesenberg and three children. I am running for Minnesota Senate, because our country is in bad shape. I do not want my children to grow up in a world that is worse off than the one I grew up in.</div><div> </div></div><div class="cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql o9v6fnle ii04i59q"><div>I was raised by hard working parents and had a great extended family. My dad was a baker and my mother was a softball and volleyball coach and continues to substitute teach. I was taught to work hard, be honest and not live beyond my means. We may not have been rich monetarily, but I had a very loving and caring family.</div><div> </div></div><div class="cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql o9v6fnle ii04i59q"><div>I was in the woods and hunting and fishing before I could walk. Being outdoors and in nature is home to me. I have always had a passion for science and biology which lead me to my career as a Wildlife Biologist. I formerly worked for the DNR in Brainerd and have done much wildlife research at Camp Ripley. I worked at a dairy farm for Wally St. Onge for a few years also. As the kids got older, and life got crazier, I decided to stay at home to spend time with them.</div><div> </div></div><div class="cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql o9v6fnle ii04i59q"><div>Having worked for the government, <strong>I have seen the corruption and inefficiencies that take place. I cannot stand by and watch my community, state and country be destroyed by high crime, high taxes, overreaching mandates, corruption, and big government.</strong> Over the past six months, I have chosen to take an active role as a leader in my community and get things done. We have succeeded in protecting our children and protecting our Constitutional rights and freedoms, when area leaders said it couldn’t be done. I am part of a community, and we could not have accomplished anything without listening to each other and working together. I want to hear from you, tell me what you need. By working together, we can be a powerful voice and protect our God-given liberties.</div><div> </div></div><div class="cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql o9v6fnle ii04i59q"><div>It would be an honor to serve you as a Minnesota State Senator. We are a community full of God loving patriots. With team work and dedication we will take our community and country back.</div><div>____________</div><div><a href="{{#staticFileLink}}10639075453,RESIZE_400x{{/staticFileLink}}"><img class="align-full" src="{{#staticFileLink}}10639075453,RESIZE_400x{{/staticFileLink}}" alt="10639075453?profile=RESIZE_400x" width="379" /></a></div></div></div>
