Minneapolis is a union town.

This year’s elections will shape the future of labor in Minneapolis.

Union members work hard for their families. We want our leaders to work hard for us too. 

MINNEAPOLIS IS A UNION TOWN.

The local political process is about the power to choose our leaders. Working people need to be at the table doing the choosing for our brighter, pro-labor future!

Local elections have local consequences. Workers feel them first. We're better off with candidates who are ready to protect workers and our rights. Now is the time to choose them, not later. Email Andrew at [email protected] to connect with our organizing team and get involved.
