Friend, in almost 250 years, there’s never been a Native woman serving in the US Senate. It’s time to change that.
I’m Peggy Flanagan, the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Minnesota.
I am Ojibwe and a proud member of the White Earth Nation. My family is the Wolf Clan. The mission of my clan is to never leave anyone behind — and that’s been my guiding principle.
I am the descendant of people who were forced off their land onto the White Earth reservation. I am the relative of residential boarding school survivors. I am the daughter of a man who always spoke truth to power for the good of the Anishinaabe people.
I’m thinking of my daughter — who just got her first jingle dress — and whether or not she will see Indigenous women in all parts of our government.
Right now, there are no Native voices in the US Senate. If I win this race, we can change that.

Too often, Native voices are ignored or erased in the halls of power.
That’s how we get awful so-called leaders like Donald Trump and J.D. Vance, who called Indigenous Peoples' Day a “fake holiday” and said that Native land was “enemy territory.”
My Ojibwe name means 'Speaks in a Loud and Clear Voice woman.' So I’m using that voice to call out MAGA extremism — loudly and clearly.
But I can’t do it alone. I need your help to build a campaign strong enough to cut through the noise. That’s why I’m personally asking, will you pitch in a split gift to my campaign to help us make history?

Chi miigwech (that’s Ojibwe big thank you) for being part of this hopeful movement.
