Political Quotes

On the recordFebruary 26, 2025
Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the distinguished career of John Croman, an extraordinary member of our community and a political reporter. John retired from his role as chief political reporter for KARE 11 after nearly 27 years of dedicated service, bringing Minnesotans reliable, informative, and timely political news. Those who worked closely with John admired his wealth of knowledge about Minnesota politics and history and refer to him as the contact, and the context, for every story. John was praised for his commitment to reporting on policy over fleeting trends of the moment and also for his tireless commitment for reporting the truth. He also brought joy to his colleagues and injected it into his work every single day. We will miss his reporting and wish him well in his retirement. ____________________
