John, 

The Fourth of July calls us to celebrate the freedoms we hold dear—and to reflect upon our shared responsibility to protect them. Today, I want to thank you for everything you’ve done to help bring the promise of America closer to reality. 

Because of your support, the Minnesota DFL is standing strong. We’re working every day to protect Minnesotans’ rights, defend our democracy, and build a state where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. 

This holiday reminds us of what we’re fighting for: a nation where freedom means reproductive rights, the right to vote, the ability to live with dignity, and the right to be who you are and love who you love without fear. 

There’s still a lot of work to do, John, but we’ve made incredible progress together. And, with your continued support, we’ll keep Minnesota moving forward. 

From all of us at the DFL: happy Independence Day.

Richard Carlbom
Chair 
Minnesota DFL
