Win the Day: Volume 1
Posted September 11, 2018
Welcome to Win the Day, a new weekly political series from TakeAction Minnesota. We're unapologetic progressives. We dream big. Like so many of you, we're hungry to change what’s possible.

The foundational stories: the ones that shape the the way we think. Who are we as Minnesotans? What are the struggles that connect us? These underlying stories show us what is and isn't possible. It’s an arena of power that, frankly, we don't always fight for.St. Paul Ward 4 Candidate Forum

I learned politics was a passive process for most folks; it simply didn’t look that easy to get involved.The Type of Governor We Need

Instead, she asked me how my health is doing, if I’m getting the care I need, and if I’m taking care of myself. This is the type of governor we need. Someone who is clear that their own self-interest is dependent on the healing of their community.
