Community and Organizations
Finding individuals and organizations that believe in our cause is worth sharing. Check here to see which organizations and community leaders are ready to DEAL with it.
DFL Rural Caucus
The DFL Rural Caucus delivers DFL values in rural communities - comprehensive health care for working families, world-class K-12/pre-K education, reproductive rights, support for beginning and family farmers, support for vital main street businesses, and border-to-border broadband. We advance these values through voter engagement, outreach, and work to elect DFL candidates supporting Rural Minnesota priorities.
​
I am proud to be supported by an organization with such strong values.
Minnesota DFL Senior Caucus
​I love seniors. My first adult job was a CNA working in nursing homes. To have an endorsement from the Minnesota DFL Senior Caucus makes me incredibly proud!
"We are seniors affiliated with the MN Democrat party (DFL) who created the DFL Senior Caucus in order to influence government on behalf of anyone 55 or older. We believe what Paul Wellstone said: “We all do better when we all do better!”
MN CANN
Cannabis isn't for everyone and that's okay. What's not okay though was the stigma and excessive policing surrounding it. Minnesota has made huge strides with the legalization of cannabis and with more work and effort we can have a fair equitable industry while freeing up police resources.
​
I am not a participant but I am a proud supporter of all the work done in our state surrounding this issue and am proud to be a MN CANN Cannabis Community Ally.
​
"Brought to you by the same women who organized the MN is Ready campaign, MNCann Political Action seeks to build upon the foundations of the campaign to continue promoting cannabis policies that align with our values: safety, equity, sustainability, and vitality. In 2022, our efforts were instrumental in electing a pro-legalization majority, and now, we’re focused on maintaining a legislature that will continue to advance these same values."
StoneWall DFL
Minnesotans should never be afraid of who they are or who they love. We fight to protect all of our friends and Stonewall DFL has been helping to lead that fight. I am incredibly proud of this endorsement.
​
"Stonewall DFL works for a safe and equitable Minnesota by endorsing and electing LGBTQ and allied candidates for public office in and in the Minnesota DFL Party. Our endorsements are important to many Minnesotans who seek our advice choosing candidates that will champion issues impacting the LGBTQ community."
Education Minnesota
I am incredibly proud to announce my endorsement from Education Minnesota.
To quote President Bush "Rarely is the question asked: Is our children learning?"
Education Minnesota is here to meet the needs of our state through the 477 local unions it is made up from. They are the leading advocate of public education here and I am humbled to have been chosen for their endorsement.
I will do my best to ensure that all of our public schools meet the needs of our students and prepare them for a successful life in the future. With fair and equitable structure and access to all schools for all children.
Thank you Education Minnesota for your support!
National Association of Social Workers
The Minnesota branch of the National Association of Social Workers has endorsed me in the upcoming election. Social Workers are a key part of our community helping out people from all sections of life. I am thankfull for their support.
Founded in 1955, the National Association of Social Workers (NASW) is the largest membership organization of professional social workers in the world. NASW works to enhance the professional growth and development of its members, to create and maintain professional standards, and to advance sound social policies
Minnesota AFL-CIO
Labor built America.
​
Unions have helped that labor have a voice to keep building. I fully support the work that unions to do bring fair work conditions to their members and am thankful for their support.
Steve Stone - Community Leader
Being endorsed by an organization is great but having the support of the community is an honor all on its own.
I am so proud to announce that I have the support and endorsement of someone who has been such a vital part of the community.
Steve Stone has spent nearly his entire life dedicated to his country and community. Over 20 years he has spent helping veterans navigate their way through any issues with their benefits and the VA. He knows how important it is to take care of our Veterans and how much of a challenge it can be.
With his endorsement and support I will work as hard as Steve has for our Vets. Minnesota has made great strides for care with the opening of three new veteran homes including one nearby in Bemidji. I will make sure we get as much care for our vets, from health and mental to housing and wellness, to ensure that every veteran not only in 1A but all of Minnesota has the services they need.
I cannot thank Steve enough for his support on this campaign.
Edith Kimbrough - Small business owner
Small business week is all about supporting the people who have tried their best to follow their dream. From manufacturing to retail to farmers market stalls its your contributions to Minnesota that help make it so great. I will support ever effort to help continue to make Minnesota a great place to open up a business.
During this week I would like to personally thank someone who has helped support our campaign so far. Edith Kimbrough at Chimera Hobby & Games not only runs an amazing game shop but is a proud supporter. I have spent my fair share of time and money there and hope to be able to pass legislation to ensure she can be successful for years to come.
