I'm so excited to attend this event today. We have been working hard for years to build back blue momentum in this region. If you look at the trends of the last couple elections you'll see the slow movement. This year we CAN win this House district and could move the Senate district closer. But it requires investment in our tribal communities, to truly understand the unique needs of each Nation and Band.
Be sure you engage with this office and the staff, challenge the DFL to stand up for the things you need.
