Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), endorsed Minnesota Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan, a tribal citizen of the White Earth Nation, for U.S. Senate in a video today, adding to the growing list of support.
In Warren’s video, she commended Flanagan, who is running for one of the Senate seats in Minnesota, calling her a “fighter” ready to support the working class of America.
“We need Democrats in the Senate who are going to fight with everything they've got for working families. That’s why I’m endorsing Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan to be the next senator for Minnesota,” said Senator Warren. “Peggy’s a fighter. She’s tough, smart, experienced, and ready to take on corrupt special interests in order to make life better for working people.”
Flanagan has already secured endorsements from Saint Paul Mayor Melvin Carter, former U.S. Senator Al Franken, Attorney General Keith Ellison, State Auditor Julie Blaha, and dozens of state, local, and community leaders, including nearly every member of DFL House Leadership and five legislators from the second congressional district.
Flanagan expressed her gratitude to Warren for her endorsement in a statement.
“I am beyond honored to have Senator Warren’s endorsement,” said Flanagan. “Elizabeth is a hero of mine. She’s a pragmatic leader who has spent decades fighting for working families. We don't get what we don’t fight for - and I’m ready to join her in the fight to take on Donald Trump, challenge the status quo in DC, and build something better for Minnesota families.”
