Political Action

Political Program

As one of the largest political programs in Minnesota, LIUNA empowers voters to select candidates who will create jobs and improve Minnesota’s roads, bridges, and water infrastructure.

LIUNA endorses candidates who we believe will serve the economic interests of LIUNA members and working people. We are proud to recommend and support candidates, both Democrats and Republicans, who will foster a fair economy, create good jobs and improve working people’s wages and benefits.

Please contact Public Affairs Director Kris Fredson if you have questions about advocating and participating in our political process, etc. Email: KFredson@LIUNAMinnesota.org.
