Angie Craig for Congress Organizing Fellow
About the Candidate:
Rep. Angie Craig represents Minnesota's Second Congressional District. She is fighting for working families - and for a Minnesota where every member of every family gets a fair shot. That means a future with lower healthcare costs and opportunities for career skills and technical training for 21st-century jobs. She'll work with anybody - and take on the Washington establishment - to get things done for her constituents. Republicans have targeted Angie’s district as a “pickup opportunity” and made it clear that they want to beat Angie and replace her with a Republican who will follow a MAGA agenda.
