Rep. Mueller Joined by Local Nursing Home Administrator Justin Bolt for State of the State Address
St. Paul, MN – Representative Patricia Mueller (R – Austin) is honored to be joined by Justin Boldt as her guest to the 2023 State of the State Address. Justin is a nursing home administrator in Austin at the St. Marks Living nursing home with years of experience in the industry. Nursing Homes have been a major point of concern this year as many across the state face tight budgets and staffing shortages.
Funding for nursing homes was noticeably absent from Governor Walz’s speech where he touted many of the spending increases he has asked for this session. “I am disappointed that when our state has a historic surplus so many Minnesotans are getting left behind including our elderly and care providers.” Said Rep. Mueller on the governor’s speech and budget. “I am so glad that Mr. Boldt was able to join me for this important event and I hope his presence will be a strong reminder for the governor and my colleagues that we must be supporting our nursing homes.”
