DLCC Invests $250K in the Minnesota House to Defend Democratic Trifecta
WASHINGTON — Today, the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee announced a $250K investment in the Minnesota House to protect the Democratic trifecta. As Republicans advance their wildly unpopular Project 2025 MAGA agenda across the country, Minnesota’s Democratic trifecta is a key top line of defense for fundamental freedoms and democracy in the North Star State.
This new investment comes as part of the DLCC’s $10 million investment in top battleground states delivered through our ‘Summer of the States’ campaign, which the DLCC launched to prevent a MAGA takeover of statehouses through an early call to action in the states. As we enter the heart of campaign season, these investments will strengthen critical infrastructure to support Democratic power-building in the states, including building on strong candidate recruitment, staff hiring, digital investments, field operations, and more.
The DLCC has been on the frontlines supporting Minnesota Democrats in their fight to win and defend their majorities for cycles. In 2022, Democrats defended the House and clinched a one-seat majority in the Senate in order to start delivering for the people of their state through a unified Democratic trifecta. DFLers have since passed legislation to fund free breakfast and lunch for K-12 students, increase funding for mental health services, protect school library books from censorship, establish paid family leave, and enshrine protections for abortion into state law. All of this progress is at stake in November and the DLCC is leaving nothing to chance as we defend the Democratic trifecta.
“Minnesota’s Democratic trifecta has made historic progress, from protecting our most valued fundamental freedoms to ensuring no child goes hungry at school. State races in Minnesota will be extremely competitive this year, and the DLCC’s investment, delivered through our ‘Summer of the States’ campaign, will support DFL candidates as they build inspiring campaigns to continue moving the state forward. The DLCC’s work is essential for defeating Trump’s MAGA allies who have their eyes set on grabbing back power at the state level. Our freedoms are on the ballot, and we’re leaving nothing to chance to elect Democratic champions who will fight for our rights and democracy.”
