Why we must re-elect progressive champions statewide

Dear John, 

Today, I’m proud to announce TakeAction Minnesota’s endorsements for progressive champions running for re-election to the Minnesota House of Representatives. These legislative leaders share our vision for a thriving democracy where our rights are protected and people and our planet come before corporations.  

👀 Check out our endorsements page to meet the candidates. 

💸 Then, become a monthly sustainer to support our work organizing around elections.  

Decades of organizing led to the historic wins of the 2023 and 2024 legislative sessions: paid sick leave statewide, free lunch in public schools, new protections against corporate polluters, and protections for trans youth and workers. The legislative leaders we elected together led, organized, and voted to get these policies over the finish line. 

These wins are already having a big impact on thousands of Minnesotans. And there’s more these progressive leaders must deliver for us.  

As we face rising fascism and authoritarianism and the U.S. Supreme Court rolls back our rights, it’s more important than ever to protect the DFL majority in the Minnesota House – while also building progressive power within the DFL. Our state has become – and must continue to be – a refuge for those seeking abortion care, trans and LGBTQ+ youth and adults, and people seeking stability in the face of climate disasters. We need a strong left flank prepared to push back on right-wing and corporate power grabs and act with moral clarity and courage for what Minnesotans need – now and in the future.  

👀 Meet our endorsed candidates for re-election to the Minnesota House. 

💸 Invest in our work to elect leaders who will move us closer to the future we deserve. 

In solidarity,

P.S. From Project 2025 to the continued genocide in Gaza, there’s a lot to grapple with right now. Join us virtually on Wednesday, July 24 from 7-8pm for a supportive, informative space to discuss the rise of authoritarianism in our communities and how we can act together to push back on militarism and violence and organize for the investment, care, and action our communities deserve.
