Endorsement As Chair, I know Ayana will work diligently to build up the Minneapolis DFL into a secure party unit with an eye towards the future. I trust her to effectively develop volunteer networks, to run conventions and other events smoothly, and to bring stability to the role and to the unit as a whole. Image of Luna Brekke. Luna Brekke.

Endorsement Ayana is incredibly smart, talented, and witty. She has been an amazing friend and teacher to me during our time in the DFL. She is always willing to fight for what is best for everyone, and I have no doubt she’ll be an incredible Chair. Image of Ash Smith. Ash Smith.

Our city unit needs leadership that invites participation and equips participants to engage effectively. Luna and Ash know that I will be a party chair for every DFLer and stand firm in our progressive values. It’s an honor to have their endorsements for Minneapolis Chair.
For that I will be forever grateful. Without them, I would not be doing any of the work that has brought me to this moment. I look forward to building an even deeper relationship with the community as Minneapolis DFL Vice Chair.
I am filled with gratitude and emotion in thanking @stonewalldfl.bsky.social for their endorsement. Our LGBTQIA+ Community is diverse, organized, inviting, and resilient. Members of Stonewall were some of the first people to help me get on my feet as an organizer. They showed me the way.
I'm Stonewall Endorsed!
I am honored to receive the endorsement of Stonewall DFL for CD5 DFL Chair.
I'm incredibly honored to receive @stonewalldfl.bsky.social's endorsement. The push by some in the DFL & the Democratic Party writ large to backslide on LGBTQ+ rights and freedoms, and throw our trans siblings specifically under the bus is unacceptable and has no place in our party.
The Stonewall DFL Board of Directors is proud to announce the following endorsements for internal Party offices for the upcoming Minneapolis DFL and Congressional District 5 conventions. Read more in our statement linked below!

Anyone who looks to fairly judge nominees based on their current job performance would come to the conclusion that Toddrick Barnette is unfit for the role. In any normal job, if someone oversaw a department that unexpectedly overspent its budget by $20 million you would be immediately fired.
A party finding its way back from the wilderness can’t afford to waste its time removing the growing and energetic part of its base. We’re proud to stand with @mydfl.bsky.social , the DFL Progressive Caucus, and the DFL Disability Caucus in working to build the party, not tearing it down.

Hey! So @elitalksmpls.bsky.social and I need to raise another $2200 to feed 40 families this week. If you donate $50 or more and post or message proof, I will draw a bird for you. If you donate $100 or more, my son Micah will draw a bird for you.

The House DFL Caucus held strong and didn't give one vote to the transphobic mess that the House GOP threw out today. Stonewall DFL will work to continue to ensure that our House and Senate DFL Caucus hold the line on trans rights here in Minnesota.
Additional thanks to Liz Lee (HD67A), Kelly Moller (HD40A), @xpleeformnhouse.bsky.social, @repkimhicks.bsky.social, AND @larrykraft.bsky.social for speaking out as strong allies to our community.
Thank you so much to the amazing members of our Minnesota Queer Legislators Caucus, especially our endorsed candidates @leighfinke.bsky.social, @davidformn40b.bsky.social, @repliishkozlowski.bsky.social, and @jesshanson.bsky.social for your speeches on the House floor today defending our community.
We will be abundantly clear in our position- trans men are men. Trans women are women. Trans boys are boys. Trans girls are girls. Trans people must be allowed to play on the sports team that aligns with their gender identity.
Stonewall DFL condemns the move on the floor from the House GOP Caucus that attempted to declare an urgency and pass the extremely bigoted and transphobic HF2685, which would force trans athletes to play on teams based on their "biological sex at birth" instead of their gender identity.

Hey friends, I have an ask.
My good friend, Aaliyah, who many of you know from her work in the community, needs our support.
In just a few months, her father has been deported and she has lost her sister.
Every dollar sends a message: we see you, and we love you.
