Sioux Falls, SD – President Joe Biden issued the following statement announcing his official endorsement of Dan Ahlers for Governor, Julian Beaudion for U.S. Senate, & Nikki Gronli for U.S. House.

“I'm proud to endorse Dan Ahlers for Governor, Julian Beaudion for U.S. Senate, and Nikki Gronli for Congress in South Dakota this November," said President Biden.

“Dan Ahlers has spent his life fighting for small businesses and working families. He knows what it means to roll up your sleeves and do the work. Julian Beaudion spent 13 years as a state trooper keeping South Dakotans safe, and now he's going to fight to make sure families can afford their health care and their kids can get a good education. Nikki Gronli has dedicated her career to making sure rural communities and family farmers get the support they need to not just survive, but thrive.

“These are good, decent people who know where they come from and who they're fighting for. The people of South Dakota deserve leaders who will actually show up for them. For South Dakotans this November, that’s Dan, Julian and Nikki.”
