AFPI Launches Minnesota State Chapter

Washington D.C.— The America First Policy Institute (AFPI) announced the launch of its Minnesota state chapter today, AFPI-Minnesota (AFPI-MN), expanding its mission to advance the America First Agenda through state-level leadership and local impact.

AFPI has appointed lifelong Minnesotan Ryan Wilson as chair of AFPI-MN. Wilson is a father, husband, and business entrepreneur who founded a successful small business that grew into a globally leading firm. Zach Freimark has been named the executive director. Freimark is a seasoned political strategist and lifelong Minnesotan, born in Stillwater, who has more than 17 years of experience in grassroots organizing, campaign management, and conservative advocacy.

“AFPI has been instrumental in advancing commonsense, America First policy, and I’m honored to be joining their team as we bring a chapter here to Minnesota,” said Ryan Wilson. “Minnesota is at an inflection point, and we will fight every day to empower and protect families to make Minnesota safe and affordable again.”

“Ryan and Zach are the leaders Minnesota needs to deliver bold, people-first solutions,” said Stephanie Whitt, AFPI’s Chief State Action and Engagement Officer. “With AFPI-MN, we are committed to empowering citizens through commonsense policies that reflect American values and create a brighter future for every Minnesotan.”

In preparation for the launch of AFPI’s new state chapter, we conducted polling in Minnesota, which can be viewed here.
