They underwent years of fertility treatments before welcoming their daughter in 2001.

The Governor revealed that his 23-year-old daughter is a social worker, she works at a shelter for the unhoused, and she’s also a ski instructor!

Governor Walz
previously revealed that Gus has a non-verbal learning disorder, ADHD, and an anxiety disorder.

“When our youngest Gus was growing up, it became increasingly clear that he was different from his classmates,” the Walz family told People. “When he was becoming a teenager, we learned that Gus has a non-verbal learning disorder in addition to an anxiety disorder and ADHD, conditions that millions of Americans also have.”

“Like so many American families, it took us time to figure out how to make sure we did everything we could to make sure Gus would be set up for success as he was growing up,” the couple added. “It took time, but what became so immediately clear to us was that Gus’ condition is not a setback — it’s his secret power.”

They added that Gus “is brilliant, hyper-aware of details that many of us pass by, and above all else, he’s an excellent son and brother to his sibling.”

Gus went viral for a super touching moment that happened during the DNC!
