BISMARCK – Today, Perrie Schafer, Chairman of the North Dakota Republican Party (“NDGOP”) praised North Dakota’s delegation in Washington for rejecting the “For the People Act.”

BISMARCK — Today, North Dakota Republican Party (“NDGOP”) Chairman Perrie Schafer issued the following statement in response to news from the Secretary of State regarding a gubernatorial recall petition in circulation:

“This recall effort is misguided and will undoubtedly fail. Governor Burgum was overwhelmingly re-elected by North Dakota voters less than one year ago by nearly the largest margin of any candidate for governor in the nation.”

BISMARCK — The North Dakota Republican Party (“NDGOP”) is pleased to announce that Perrie Schafer was elected as State Chairman at the organization’s annual State Committee meeting that took place this past weekend in Medora. Schafer, a Mandan, ND businessman and District Committee Chair, had earned the support of outgoing NDGOP State Chairman Rick Berg after Berg chose not to run for re-election.

Tonight, Rick Berg, Chairman of the North Dakota Republican Party (“NDGOP”) released the following statement in response to President Joe Biden’s Joint Address to Congress.

Today, Rick Berg, Chairman of the North Dakota Republican Party (“NDGOP”) made the following statement in response to the U.S. Senate’s acquittal of former President Trump.

BISMARCK—Today, Rick Berg, Chairman of the North Dakota Republican Party (“NDGOP”) made the following statement in response to President Joe Biden’s decision to revoke the permit for the Keystone XL pipeline:

“Just hours after calling for unity – and with the stroke of a pen – Joe Biden killed 11,000 jobs and $1.6 billion in wages by cancelling the Keystone XL Pipeline. This particularly strikes at the heart of North Dakota’s economy as a leader in America’s energy independence. I call on North Dakota Democrats, including Chairwoman Oversen, Leader Boschee, and Leader Heckaman to demand that the President reverse this decision that will leave thousands of North Dakota families out of work.”

BISMARCK—Today, Rick Berg, Chairman of the North Dakota Republican Party (“NDGOP”) made the following statement in response to the financial support senior members of the North Dakota Democratic-NPL (“ND Dem-NPL”)’s executive committee – including from, most notably, Chairwoman Kylie Overson – have provided to a violent, left wing extremist. Thomas Alexander Starks was arrested after wielding an axe at the office of Senator John Hoeven in Fargo, drawing financial support—instead of clear condemnation—from top ND Dem-NPL officials.

“It is inexcusable that Chairwoman Overson would be personally involved in supporting a far-left extremist whose violent actions constitute an assault on our democracy. Video evidence leaves little in doubt about this attack, so it is unfathomable why ND Dem-NPL officials would lend their name and financial support to a man they refer to as ‘innocent.’ I want to thank our brave men and women of the Fargo Police Department for their diligent pursuit of justice in this matter, as well as Senator Hoeven for being an excellent public servant for all North Dakotans. We will not be intimidated by violence and extremism – even when it is explicitly and sadly endorsed by our opposition.”
