“Kate Knuth has proven as a legislator and as an advocate that she is a fierce, progressive leader on climate, public safety, and housing. I’ve seen her work up close, and I know that Kate would be an excellent partner to me in the mayor’s office because of her commitment to justice, and her ability to bring people together and engage deeply with our community to drive progress. Kate’s holistic, public health-centered approach to public safety represents exactly the kind of change in direction Minneapolis so badly needs. I’m very excited to endorse my friend Kate.”

“Minneapolis needs a Mayor with a positive vision for a just, equitable and sustainable future. Kate Knuth has that vision, plus the skills and commitment to follow through to make it real. Kate is a person of substance who takes responsibility and leads from conviction, not political expediency. Kate is a proven leader who can work with others. Her experience as a successful progressive legislator will be valuable as she works to rebuild relationships in City Hall, at the State Capitol and in the community.
“When it comes to climate action, Kate Knuth knows that progressive cities can and must lead by example. Big promises and political spin aren’t enough. Her track record shows that she’s ready to lead Minneapolis into a cleaner, greener future — and set that example for other cities in our region and beyond.” - Michelle Hesterberg, Co-Chair of the chapter’s Minneapolis Political Committee
