The Minnesota Republican Party says GOP Rep. Michele Bachmann will appear at the MNGOP's December 7th rally in the Capitol Rotunda. The rally is in support of Gov. Pawlenty's proposed constitutional amendment to put a cap on state spending.

Here's part of the news release:

"We need to rein in spending at all levels of government. That's why I'm such a big supporter of Governor Pawlenty's common sense Spending Accountability Amendment. Monday's rally at the state Capitol in support of this amendment will be a great event for Minnesotans who want to keep St. Paul's big spending liberals in check," said Congresswoman Michele Bachmann.

"We're thrilled Congresswoman Bachmann will be speaking at our rally in support of Governor Pawlenty's Spending Accountability Amendment. She is a true champion of the taxpayer and a one of kind of speaker who gets our grassroots energized," said Republican Party of Minnesota Chairman Tony Sutton.

"Congresswoman Bachmann is one of the nation's leading voices for lower taxes, limited government and reform. She understands that the Spending Accountability Amendment's time has come. Along with our great activists across the state, I'm sure Congresswoman Bachmann will be fired up and ready to go," said Republican Party of Minnesota Deputy Chairman Michael Brodkorb.
