We’re dropping in with some exciting news! We’re thrilled to announce our sixth slate of endorsed pro-choice champions running for local office in 2025!
Local leaders are essential in the fight to protect Minnesotans’ right to choose. The decisions made in school boards, city councils, and county offices shape our daily lives and directly impact access to reproductive health care.
At a time when reproductive freedom is under coordinated attack nationwide, Minnesotans can count on these leaders to stand strong for their communities and defend the fundamental rights of every person in our state. We are proud to endorse this fall slate of candidates who understand that reproductive freedom is about more than abortion access alone — it’s about the human right to maintain personal bodily autonomy, to have children, to not have children, and to parent the children we have in safe communities. These leaders have demonstrated their commitment to building a future where every Minnesotan can make decisions about their bodies and lives with dignity, safety, and support.

In Solidarity,
Team Women Winning
