Matt Little for Congress in Minnesota’s 2nd District

 

Our Revolution is proud to endorse Matt Little for Congress in Minnesota’s 2nd District.

Matt was born and raised in Lakeville, went to high school in Rosemount, and now lives with his family in New Market Township. He has represented his community as a Lakeville City Councilor, Mayor of Lakeville, and Minnesota State Senator. Today, he owns a law firm where he represents seniors and people with disabilities who have been harmed by negligence or abuse. 

Now he’s ready to bring that fight to Washington.

Taking on the Oligarchs

Matt understands something fundamental about this moment: our affordability crisis and the corruption of our politics are connected.

Working families are struggling with the cost of groceries, childcare, healthcare, housing, and retirement while enormous wealth and political power accumulate at the very top.

Matt wants to change that.

He supports Medicare for All, affordable childcare, tax relief for working people, and higher taxes on the ultrawealthy. And he’s made fighting political corruption a centerpiece of his campaign. 

Matt has rejected big PAC and AIPAC money and proposed an Anti-Corruption Bill of Rights that would overturn Citizens United, ban Super PACs, prohibit members of Congress and the administration from trading stocks, and impose stronger conflict-of-interest rules on presidents and their families. 

He’s not just running against a broken system. He’s telling voters exactly how he wants to change it.

Standing Up to Big Tech

Matt is also willing to take on another source of growing corporate power: Big Tech and its massive data centers.

He is calling for a moratorium on data centers, warning that unchecked development threatens Minnesota’s aquifers and farmland while leaving taxpayers to pick up the tab. 

That willingness to connect corporate power in Washington to its real-world consequences back home is exactly the kind of progressive leadership we need.

Matt isn’t afraid to ask who benefits, who pays, and whether ordinary people are getting a fair deal.

Fighting for the Underdog

There’s a deeply personal reason Matt talks so much about fighting.

He says he’s running for the healthcare his mom needs, the retirement his dad earned, and the future his daughter deserves. He’s running for families who work hard and still can’t afford groceries, childcare, healthcare, or assisted living — and for the underdogs who feel like the American Dream keeps moving further out of reach. 

That perspective runs through his campaign.

Matt is fighting for Social Security and Medicare for All, affordable childcare, reproductive and LGBTQ+ rights, family farmers, and an economy where opportunity isn’t reserved for the wealthiest Americans. 

He also knows how to represent a politically diverse district without abandoning his values. During his time in the Minnesota Senate, Matt co-authored more than 60 bipartisan bills while continuing to stand up for what he believed was right. 

A Progressive Fighter for MN-02

Our Revolution is building a progressive movement that can take on concentrated wealth and power — and that requires electing leaders who aren’t afraid of the fight.

Matt Little is one of those leaders.

He’s taking on dark money and Super PACs. He’s challenging Big Tech and unchecked data centers. He’s fighting for Medicare for All and an economy that puts working families ahead of the ultrawealthy.

And he’s doing it in the community where he grew up, served in local and state government, and is now raising his own family. 

Our Revolution is proud to endorse Matt Little for Congress in Minnesota’s 2nd District.

Let’s send a progressive fighter to Washington who’s ready to take on the oligarchs — and fight like hell for working people.

 

When we organize, we win.

Five Progressives for the Minnesota Legislature

By ALL, Endorsement, MN

Five Progressives for the Minnesota Legislature

From protecting workers’ rights and defending reproductive freedom to expanding affordable housing and taking on corporate power, Minnesota has shown what’s possible when bold progressives are elected to office.

That’s why Our Revolution is proud to endorse four outstanding candidates for the Minnesota Legislature:

    • Jen McEwen for State Senate (SD-8)
  • John Marty for State Senate (SD-40)
  • Omar Fateh for State Senate (SD-62)
  • Robyn Gulley for State Senate (SD-65)
  • David Gottfried for State House (HD-40B)

These leaders are fighting for working people—not wealthy special interests—and are building a Minnesota where everyone can thrive.

Jen McEwen for State Senate (SD-8)

Attorney and current State Senator Jen McEwen has become one of Minnesota’s leading progressive champions since first winning her Duluth-area seat in 2022. As Chair of the Senate Labor Committee, she led landmark legislation expanding workers’ rights, including earned sick and safe time, stronger protections for unions, banning captive audience meetings, and strengthening workplace safety laws.

Jen also authored the landmark Protect Reproductive Options (PRO) Act, which codified abortion rights into Minnesota law after the fall of Roe v. Wade. She continues to champion universal health care, affordable housing, environmental protection, taxing the wealthiest Minnesotans to invest in public goods, and protecting Minnesota’s water from dangerous mining projects.

John Marty for State Senate (SD-40)

A nationally recognized leader on government ethics and one of Minnesota’s longest-serving progressive champions, State Senator John Marty has spent decades taking on special interests and fighting for working people. 

John is the author of the Minnesota Health Plan to guarantee comprehensive health care for all, has led efforts to strengthen campaign finance and ethics laws, and has been a steadfast advocate for climate action, reproductive freedom, economic justice, and protecting the rights of immigrants and LGBTQ+ communities. Powered by small donors—not PACs or special interests—John continues to fight for a government that puts people before corporate power. 

Omar Fateh for State Senate (SD-62)

The son of Somali immigrants and the first Somali American elected to the Minnesota Senate, Omar Fateh has become one of the Legislature’s boldest progressive voices. Since taking office, he has helped deliver major victories for working families, including tuition-free college through the North Star Promise program, universal school meals, earned sick and safe time, one of the nation’s strongest minimum wage standards for Uber and Lyft drivers, and Minnesota’s 100% Clean Energy by 2040 law.

Omar continues to fight for immigrant communities, affordable housing, economic justice, and a government that puts people before corporate interests.

Robyn Gulley for State Senate (SD-65)

A longtime community advocate, public policy leader, and former nonprofit executive, Robyn Gulley is running a proudly progressive campaign rooted in the belief that “everybody in, nobody out.” Endorsed by the DFL and organized labor, Robyn is campaigning as a pro-worker, pro-choice, pro-immigrant, and pro-environment champion committed to strengthening public schools, protecting fundamental rights, and ensuring government delivers for everyday Minnesotans.

Her vision is centered on bringing people together, building stronger communities, and creating an economy that works for everyone—not just those at the top.

David Gottfried for State House (HD-40B)

David Gottfried is a State Representative dedicated to strengthening Minnesota’s public institutions. Serving on the Agriculture, Education, and Environment committees, David is focused on supporting public schools, protecting Minnesota’s natural resources, strengthening local agriculture, and ensuring government delivers real results for working families.

His campaign reflects a deep commitment to investing in education, protecting the environment, and building stronger communities across Minnesota.

Building Progressive Power in Minnesota

At Our Revolution, we know that lasting change comes from electing leaders who are willing to challenge the status quo and fight unapologetically for working people.

Jen McEwen, John Marty, Omar Fateh, Robyn Gulley, and David Gottfried are building a future rooted in workers’ rights, reproductive freedom, affordable health care, public education, environmental justice, clean energy, and a democracy that works for everyone.

We’re proud to endorse these five progressive champions for the Minnesota House and Senate because they understand that real progress comes when people—not corporations or wealthy special interests—have the power.

When we organize, we win.

Peggy Flanagan for U.S. Senate in Minnesota

By ALL, Endorsement, MN

Peggy Flanagan for U.S. Senate in Minnesota

Our Revolution is proud to endorse Peggy Flanagan for U.S. Senate because Minnesota deserves a senator who will stand up to corporate power, defend working families, and never stop fighting for a fair shot for everyone.

As Minnesota’s Lieutenant Governor, Peggy has helped deliver real results for working people. She helped pass paid family and medical leave, expand investments in education, healthcare, and housing, support family farms and small businesses, and lead the fight to keep abortion legal in Minnesota.

Now, she’s running for the U.S. Senate to continue that fight in Washington.

Fighting for Working Families

Peggy knows firsthand what too many families are going through.

Growing up, her family relied on public programs to get by. Those experiences shaped her lifelong belief that everyone deserves the opportunity to succeed—not just those with wealth or powerful connections. Today, she’s running to make sure every Minnesotan has that same fair shot.

In the Senate, Peggy will fight to lower costs for families, protect essential services, and make government work for everyday people instead of billionaires and special interests.

Taking on Billionaires and Corporate Power

At a time when Washington is increasingly dominated by corporate interests, Peggy is running to challenge a system that’s rigged against working people.

She is campaigning to stop Donald Trump and the billionaires who are making it harder for families to get ahead, and she has pledged to take on the toughest fights to deliver for Minnesotans.

That’s exactly the kind of leadership our movement needs in the United States Senate.

A Leader Who Delivers

Peggy has shown that progressive values can become real victories.

Her work helping secure paid family and medical leave, investing in affordable housing and healthcare, supporting Minnesota’s farmers and small businesses, and defending reproductive freedom demonstrates what’s possible when leaders put people before politics.

She isn’t just talking about change—she’s already helping make it happen.

Vote Peggy Flanagan for U.S. Senate

Minnesota needs a senator who will fight for working families, protect fundamental freedoms, and challenge the corporate interests standing in the way of progress.

That’s why Our Revolution is proud to endorse Peggy Flanagan for U.S. Senate.

Together, we can elect a proven progressive leader who will take Minnesota’s values to Washington and keep fighting for a future where every family has the opportunity to thrive.

When we organize, we win.

Keith Ellison for Minnesota Attorney General

By ALL, Endorsement, MN

Keith Ellison for Minnesota Attorney General

Our Revolution is proud to endorse Keith Ellison for re-election as Minnesota Attorney General.

Keith Ellison has spent his career standing up for working people, protecting fundamental freedoms, and holding powerful interests accountable. As Minnesota’s Attorney General, he has embraced the role of “the People’s Lawyer,” fighting every day to help Minnesotans afford their lives and live with dignity, safety, and respect.

Fighting for the People

Keith believes government should stand with ordinary people—not corporations or those who abuse their power.

As Attorney General, he has worked to protect consumers, lower healthcare costs, defend reproductive freedom, safeguard access to gender-affirming care, fight corporate misconduct, and ensure Minnesotans receive the justice and protections they deserve. His campaign is centered on helping families afford the essentials while defending the rights and freedoms that every community deserves.

Standing Up to Powerful Interests

Keith has never been afraid to take on the toughest fights — like prosecuting Derek Chauvin for the murder of George Floyd.

His campaign highlights his leadership defending Minnesotans from unlawful actions by the Trump administration because, as he says, no one is above the law. He has fought to protect voting rights, defend reproductive freedom, and stand up for communities facing discrimination and attacks on their civil rights.

That fearless commitment to justice is exactly the kind of leadership Our Revolution believes our movement needs.

Delivering Results for Minnesota

Keith has shown that progressive leadership means producing real results for working families.

As Attorney General, he has secured affordable insulin for Minnesotans, defended access to reduced-cost healthcare, recovered millions through opioid settlements, fought Medicaid fraud, challenged corporate abuses, protected consumers, and taken action against companies putting public safety at risk.

His work demonstrates that government can improve people’s lives when it is willing to confront powerful interests on behalf of the public.

A Lifetime of Public Service

Before serving as Attorney General, Keith represented Minnesotans in Congress for 12 years, where he championed consumer protections, workers’ rights, environmental justice, and civil rights. Earlier, he served in the Minnesota House of Representatives and spent 16 years as a civil rights and criminal defense attorney, including leading the Legal Rights Center.

Throughout his career, Keith has remained committed to ensuring that everybody counts and everybody matters.

Together, let’s re-elect a proven progressive leader who will continue standing up for consumers, defending civil rights, and making government work for the people.

When we organize, we win.

Our Revolution

Ilhan Omar for Re-Election to Congress in MN-05

By ALL, Endorsement, MN

Ilhan Omar for Re-Election to Congress in MN-05

Our Revolution is proud to endorse Ilhan Omar for re-election to Congress in Minnesota’s 5th District.

From the moment she entered Congress, Ilhan has been one of the clearest and most courageous voices fighting for working people, immigrants, peace, racial justice, and democracy — even as she’s faced relentless attacks from the far right, corporate interests, and the political establishment.

At a time when too many politicians stay silent in the face of authoritarianism and corporate power, Ilhan Omar continues to stand up and fight.

According to her campaign, Ilhan is running to continue building a future rooted in:

  • Economic justice
  • Universal healthcare
  • Housing affordability
  • Climate action
  • Immigrant rights
  • Democracy reform
  • End endless war

Her campaign emphasizes that government should work for ordinary people — not billionaires, corporations, or political insiders.

And that’s exactly why powerful forces continue targeting her.

Ilhan has long been one of Donald Trump’s favorite political targets. In recent months, Trump escalated his attacks even further — suggesting she should be jailed or deported and amplifying false conspiracy theories targeting both her and Minnesota’s Somali community. 

Despite the threats and intimidation, Ilhan has remained outspoken against ICE and MAGA extremism. She will always stand strong for immigrant communities and progressive values.

Right now, she faces multiple challengers in both the Democratic primary and general election, while outside groups and right-wing media continue pouring attention and attacks into the race.

At a moment when authoritarian politics, billionaire influence, and anti-immigrant attacks are intensifying across the country, we need leaders who won’t back down under pressure.

Ilhan Omar has shown that courage time and time again.

That’s why Our Revolution is proud to stand with her once more.

When we organize, we win. ✊
