Voices
The Minnesotans for Equal Rights campaign is powered by people who live these issues every day. Here, supporters, partners, and community members share in their own words why they’re part of this fight, what’s at stake for their communities, and what we can win together.
Add your voice. Tell us why you’re part of this fight. Email your words to info@mn4equalrights.org with the subject “Add My Voice,” along with your name and your town or organization. By sending, you agree that we may share your words on our website and social media. We review every submission and may edit for length.
Kat Rohn, Executive Director of Outfront Minnesota
“As an organization that is committed to advancing LGBTQ+ equality in Minnesota, we are proud supporters of the coalition’s important work to enshrine those values and protections in Minnesota’s Constitution. At a time when so many of our rights are under attack, it’s critical that we in Minnesota continue to show the world that we can lead with equality for all.”
Betty Folliard, Founder of ERA Minnesota
“Minnesotans value dignity, liberty, and equality: everyone deserves the same right to the same rights; to solidify these basic human values, our state constitution desperately needs the ERA.”
Minnesota AFL-CIO
“Labor rights and human rights are deeply connected. No institution should have the authority to dictate who counts in the workplace, in health care, whose bodies deserve dignity, or which identities merit protection under law. Our state constitution needs to ensure that all Minnesotans are treated equally under the law without exception.”
YWCA Duluth
“Since ending racial and gender discrimination is our mission, YWCA Duluth is proud to be a member of the MN4ER Coalition. We know that securing equal rights from everyone will only make Minnesota stronger.”
