MINNEAPOLIS — Former Vice President Mike Pence stopped in Minnesota Wednesday to crusade against school policies supporting transgender students and call for parents to have more say over their children's education.
"We gather here today because there's a fight underway. There's a fight over the destiny of our children and the survival of parental rights," Pence told a crowd of about 70 supporters gathered at the Minneapolis Club.
The Republican's appearance at the downtown event comes as GOP presidential contenders are starting to enter the 2024 race, with former United Nations ambassador Nikki Haley saying this week that she'll take on former President Donald Trump.
