Daniel Mathiaas - 5th District
SNAPSHOT
 Republican Dan Mathias failed in his attempts to unseat incumbent DFLer Martin Sabo in the 2002 election. Mathias says he will run a campaign that focuses on keeping marriage between one man and one woman, keeping taxes low and supporting the war on terror. He says Congressman Sabo is out of touch with most of his district which encompasses Minneapolis and neighboring suburbs.


McCollum's view of Iraq
 Rep. Betty McCollum, DFL-Minn., has returned from a trip to Iraq. During her visit, a wave of coordinated attacks took place, some targeting the Red Cross headquarters in Baghdad, killing more than 35 people. She also visited Mosul, in northern Iraq, where she and other members of her delegation with the House International Relations committee met with members of the 101st Airborne Division. Morning Edition host Cathy Wurzer spoke with McCollum. (10/29/2003)

Tolls for thee, Minnesota?
 In the next couple of years, Minnesotans could be paying tolls to use certain metropolitan highway lanes. State and federal lawmakers are considering plans to charge lane fees to relieve congestion and fund new road projects. The proposal is part of a mix of highway development and financing plans announced by Gov. Tim Pawlenty's administration and legislators from both parties. (04/24/2003)
