Harris-Walz campaign kicks off a nationwide effort to reach Native voters

The Harris-Walz campaign kicked off a nationwide effort to earn the votes of Native Americans.

Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan spoke Wednesday at the launch of “Native Americans for Harris-Walz,” a new effort by the campaign to reach out to Native American voters. The midday event held was held at the Mystic Lake Event Center, a complex owned by the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community.

A key issue raised by Flanagan and others who spoke at the event was the protection of women from violence, and the protection of Indigenous women and girls, in particular.

“We’ve been crystal clear that our women are sacred, and worth protecting,” said Flanagan.
