Electing Champions for our Community
Stonewall DFL works for a safe and equitable Minnesota by endorsing and electing LGBTQ and allied candidates for public office in and in the Minnesota DFL Party. Our endorsements are important to many Minnesotans who seek our advice choosing candidates that will champion issues impacting the LGBTQ community.
Outreach & Inclusion is Our Mission
Stonewall DFL represents the DFL in the LGBTQ community and represents the LGBTQ community in the DFL.
As the official LGBTQ outreach arm of the DFL, we participate in Pride and other events in every corner of the state – educating and registering voters, promoting our endorsed candidates, and creating a pipeline for LGBTQ people to get involved in the DFL Party.
We remind the Party of – and help it fulfill – its obligations of outreach and inclusion for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer people.

Transgender Day of Remembrance memorializes people killed in acts of transphobic violence. It was founded in 1999 to honor Rita Hester, a transgender woman murdered in Massachusetts the previous year. In the 20 years since its founding, Transgender Day of Remembrance has grown to become a worldwide event.
According to the Human Rights Campaign, a record 37 trans and gender non-conforming people have been killed in violent acts nationwide since the start of the year. The majority of the victims are Black trans women and femmes. Violent acts against trans and gender non-conforming people often go unreported or misreported, so the actual number of those killed may be higher.
On Nov. 13, Mayor Jacob Frey and the City Council approved a resolution to officially observe Transgender Day of Remembrance. That resolution acknowledges that “there is much work ahead in our duties to help co-create a safer, more equitable city for our transgender and gender non-conforming community members.”
