Dear Members and Associates,
At our last meeting we had the pleasure of screening and endorsing DSA member Jen McEwen. Jen is strong on environmental issues, strong of racial justice issues, and will stand up for working class interests in Minnesota. Her experience as a public defender in particular makes her acutely aware of the serious changes we need to make to our criminal justice system. She will fight for universal health care, more affordable housing, and serious investment in our underserved communities. In short, Jen values people and the planet over profits.
But Jen needs our help. She is a strong candidate, but we need to step up both as a chapter and a larger progressive community. Covid has us down, but we are not helpless. Those of you who can afford to, please donate here. Those of you with time to spare, phone banking is our primary means of reaching voters. Sign up here. Those of you who live in Duluth and have yards, request a yard sign here.
Help elect Jen McEwen, a Democratic Socialist who will fight for our values, to the Minnesota State Senate.
The Primary is August 11 if you vote in person. Request your vote-by-mail ballot here.
In Solidarity
John Krumm
