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.

Belong to Something Greater!
Stonewall DFL members have voting privileges at all membership meetings and committee meetings; this includes voting for candidate endorsements.
The entire membership generally meets once or twice a year, electing the board of directors which meets monthly. Members are encouraged to be active with our six standing committees which meet with varying schedules. All meetings are public and guests are welcome.
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.

"I am incredibly honored to have been endorsed by the Stonewall DFL. This endorsement is a testament to our shared commitment to promoting inclusivity, equality, and justice for all. I am grateful for their support and look forward to working together to create a more inclusive and equitable community for everyone." -Abdi Daisane
“It’s an honor to receive the Stonewall DFL endorsement. I look forward to bringing my lived experience as a queer woman to the Hennepin County Board and working for 2SLGBTQIA+ liberation alongside our community.”- Jen Westmoreland
"It is an honor to earn the endorsement from Stonewall DFL. Our LBGQT+ neighbors, friends, and family deserve to live freely without fear, inequities of treatment in law and policies, or under false and hurtful narratives. It is important the heavy lifting of equal rights and advocacy efforts not be shouldered on those whose rights are most threatened, and equally critical those voices and experiences are at the front of conversations. I am proud to stand alongside our LGBQT+ community in our work for progress."
