MINNESOTA – Common Defense, the nation's largest grassroots veterans organization, is proud to endorse Congresswoman Angie Craig for re-election in Minnesota's 2nd Congressional District. Angie Craig has demonstrated an unwavering commitment to fighting for veterans, bolstering national security, and safeguarding reproductive rights.

“America’s veterans have made tremendous sacrifices to uphold our nation’s core values of liberty and justice. They deserve leaders who not only respect those values but actively work to protect them. I’m honored to receive the endorsement of Common Defense and look forward to our continued partnership,” said Rep. Craig.

At Common Defense, we proudly stand alongside principled leaders like Rep. Craig, who honor the service and sacrifice of veterans by championing policies that advance justice, democracy, and equality for all. Her dedication to ensuring liberty and justice for all aligns perfectly with Common Defense’s mission and the needs of Minnesotans.

Common Defense Civic Engagement is a grassroots, veteran-led organization that was founded in 2016. We empower veterans to stand up for our communities against the rising tide of racism, hate, and violence, to organize against the entrenched powers that have rigged our economy, and to champion an equitable and representative democracy, where “liberty and justice” truly is for all. For too long, politicians from both political parties have attempted to use veterans as unwilling political props, and Common Defense serves as a home for veterans to organize and speak for themselves and support the candidates who truly share our values.
