Draws over 50 employers and hundreds of potential employees

Eden Prairie, MN – Representative Erik Paulsen (MN-03) spent Monday at the Earle Brown Heritage Center in Brooklyn Center talking with over 50 businesses looking to connect with hundreds of potential employees in attendance. 

“I am encouraged by the success of today’s job fair,” said Rep. Paulsen. “Helping get our neighbors back to work isn’t a Republican or Democrat issue, it’s an American priority. I am pleased to see so many businesses and job seekers take advantage of the event.”

Rep. Paulsen continues his efforts to create an environment for economic growth and job creation, traveling the 3^rd district to meet with small business job-creators, holding regular telephone town halls, in person “Congress on Your Corner” events, and cultivating new ways of getting Minnesotans back to work.
