Matt Little

We’ll need your help if we’re going to take back the House in November! Get involved today: littleforcongress.com/get-involved/

Throughout our time in office, Senator Erin Maye Quade and I have been told to sit down, and shut up. We’ve been told to stop asking questions. We’ve been told that we’re risking our “careers.” We’ve been told to leave unpopular policies– like affordable insulin and red flag laws–alone. I’m proud to say we’ve never once listened. I’m proud to say we stand up for our communities because it’s not about us–it’s about doing what’s right.  From day one, I’ve stood up for working families, for kids in schools, for nurses, teachers, farmers, and even for the people I disagree with. This campaign can’t be bought and sold. It’s for the people of the Second Congressional District. It’s about the mavericks, the underdogs, the rebels, and those that we’ve excluded for far too long. If you think CD2 needs a fighter in Congress, I’m your guy. Thank you to Senator Maye Quade for her dedication to the people of SD56!

We’ve won the DFL endorsement! But the fight isn’t over–we need your help if we’re going to win for working families against AIPAC, big-money lobbyists, and corporate PACS. Together we will win!  Join the fight, get involved today: littleforcongress.com/get-involved/

“I’m proud to endorse Matt Little for Congress because he’s a proven fighter for working people who understands what families are up against right now. Matt knows public service is about helping people afford their lives, and he’ll bring the kind of values-driven leadership Minnesota deserves in Congress.” – Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison Thank you to Attorney General and former U.S. Representative Keith Ellison for endorsing our campaign! We’ve said it a thousand times, this is a people-powered campaign. Attorney General Ellison knows what it means to be a people-powered leader. Democrats must be united to fight Donald Trump and the Republican Party. I’m grateful to have you with us, Attorney General Ellison! Together we will win this! 🤝

“I’m excited to endorse Matt Little for Congress in CD2. In my work as Minnesota’s State Auditor, I’ve come to understand how vital honesty and integrity are for our leaders. I’ve worked with Matt for many years, and Matt has the fierce, open honesty and integrity we need in DC to fight the rampant corruption and lies of the Trump administration and his cronies. I’m proud to support Matt Little.”     —Julie Blaha, Minnesota State Auditor  What an honor it is to receive the endorsement of State Auditor Julie Blaha! Transparency, accountability, efficiency, and vigilance– aren’t these all the things we hope for from our government? State Auditor Blaha has embodied this and more during her time fighting for everyday Minnesotans. We’re going to win this fight, and we’re going to do it together. Thank you again for your support, State Auditor Blaha! 🤝

THANK YOU to State Representatives Mary Frances Clardy and Rick Hansen for endorsing our run for Congress! MN Representative Clardy (D-53A) and MN Representative Hansen (D-53B) have been strong, passionate leaders in our state for decades. From supporting teachers to leading the charge on protecting our environment, these two have shown what people-first politics truly looks like. We’re well on our way to November, and I’m grateful to have the support of these incredible legislators! Let’s win this election, take back the House, and fight for working Minnesotans– together 🤝

Happy Mother’s Day! The endless love, sacrifice, and patience from these incredible women—my grandmothers, my mother, and my wife Coco—have made me who I am today. Thank you for everything!

THANK YOU, Native Peoples Caucus, for your endorsement! I’m committed to partnering with our Native community to co-govern and ensure their voices are heard, and the U.S. government’s commitments are kept.   From honoring treaty rights and stopping harmful mining projects at Twin Metals to supporting Native community members in transition and protecting tribal sovereignty, I’m committed to ensuring Native needs aren’t just an afterthought but are central considerations, and that Native community members and leadership are consistent partners at the federal level. Thank you again to the Native Peoples Caucus for endorsing my campaign. The CD2 convention is just a few days away–so let’s win this and fight together 🤝

"I’ve known Matt Little for over a decade, first as our Mayor in Lakeville, then as our State Senator. Matt has one of the biggest hearts in politics. Matt was always there for our community. I saw Matt at grad parties, high school games, and theater performances. Matt knows the struggles of working Minnesotans and will fight for us. That is why I full-heartedly support Matt Little for Congress." – Steven Schroer, Candidate for SD 57 We need more candidates like Steven. Young, ready to fight, and ready to win big for their districts. I’m honored to receive his endorsement, and I’m thrilled to endorse him!  Let’s hold big money and corporate America accountable and support working families.

WATCH: My WCCO Interview I’ve said it before: this is a people-powered campaign. Thanks to our stellar volunteers and supporters, we’re putting our best effort out there.  But make no mistake. If we spend the summer fighting each other, instead of standing against the Trump administration and the Republican Party as a united front, we will lose the Second Congressional District.  That’s why I’ve pledged to abide by the endorsement and put our community above ego and party politics. Thank you to Esme Murphy and WCCO for having me on!

Faith in Minnesota: THANK YOU for putting your trust in me to lead Minnesota’s Second Congressional District. It’s an honor to win your endorsement! Faith in Minnesota has fought to hold ICE accountable for their violence and abuse, Netanyahu responsible for the genocide in Gaza, and Trump to account for his broken promises, pointless wars, soaring gas and oil prices, cruel cuts to health care and Medicaid, and dictatorial abuse of his office.   We should all be more like the bold and brave organizers, advocates, and volunteers with Faith in Minnesota. The Second Congressional District Convention is right around the corner. Faith in Minnesota, let’s win this– together 🤝

Happy May Day! Workers make the world go ‘round. Hundreds of years of labor movement history tell us that. That’s why I’m proud to be a pro-labor candidate. Let’s empower unions, fight for fair wages, and ensure everyone has a safe workplace.

Thank you to the Minnesota Nurses Association and National Nurses United for having me at the Red Alert Save Our Hospitals rally! My mom has been sick my entire life. If you’re a child of a parent with a chronic illness, you know what it’s like. My mom wrote letters to her insurance company, begging and pleading to be able to see a specialist. I watched as these insurance companies nickel-and-dimed my mom for having the audacity to get sick.  I went to law school and became a lawyer to hold these insurance companies accountable. I’ve been suing these predatory insurance companies for 14 years now. We deserve Medicare for All.  We deserve funded hospitals, and our nurses deserve safe workplaces, time off, and fair wages. Let’s win back the House and get the health care we deserve.

Thank you to the DFL Rural Caucus for your endorsement! As you’ve probably heard, I grew up working on my grandparents’ farm on weekends and during the summer. And, if you know my family, you know a big source of pride is that old family farm. ​It’s a way of life that we’re losing. People just starting out and even established family farmers are struggling under the weight of a federal government more preoccupied with lining the pockets of the ultra-wealthy. When we win this race, we won’t forget about the needs of our rural communities. Reliable, affordable, local healthcare, broadband internet, support for farmers, and high-quality education for kids in rural districts– we’ll do it all, and we’ll do it together. Thank you again for your endorsement, DFL Rural Caucus!

HCMC’s financial crisis is just another symptom of a national health care system on life support. HCMC’s financial failings are not about internal mismanagement, immigrants, poor folks, or uninsured people. It’s about greed. ​Greed of the Trump administration, which slashed the nearly $1.7 BILLION in Medicaid support to HCMC, and gave $1 TRILLION of tax cuts to the ultra-wealthy. Greed of the health insurance industry, which bleeds 16-20% of all medical spending away from patient care to feed their enormous profit margins. HCMC is the biggest safety net hospital in the state. Hundreds of thousands of patients need its services each year. We’ve got bipartisan agreement here in Minnesota that HCMC is important. But without Medicare for All, this will keep happening, and will bankrupt our state in the process. Let’s win back the House, pass Medicare for All, and end this cycle of greed.
