Mary Moriarty is a public defender and distinguished leader dedicated to changing the broken criminal legal system and creating a more just world. Moriarty served as the County’s Chief Public Defender for six years and led one of the most effective public law offices in the country. She’s the DFL-endorsed candidate for Hennepin County Attorney, and faces a crowded primary field. Vote for Mary in the general election by November 8.

The Hennepin County Attorney’s Office has enormous power to shape our county’s criminal legal system, support survivors, address police violence, and reduce mass incarceration and policies that unjustly target people who are poor, Black, Indigenous, and/or people of color, and people with marginalized gender and sexual identities. 

Mary Moriarty shares our vision for a criminal legal system that is fair, addresses systemic injustices, and truly brings justice for all. TakeAction is proud to endorse Moriarty for this incredibly important position.

Endorsements include: TakeAction Minnesota, Victory Fund, Stonewall DFL, OutFront Minnesota, Unidos MN, Moms Demand Action, People Over Prosecution, Real Justice, Survivor’s Lead, Attorney General Keith Ellison, Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, and community leaders across Hennepin County.

As the People’s Lawyer, Keith Ellison knows that every person counts, and every person matters. In his first term as Attorney General, he used the full power of his office to hold corporations accountable, support women’s economic security, and prosecute the ex-police officers who murdered George Floyd. When many high-ranking elected officials refused to acknowledge the failures of the Minneapolis Police Department and opposed City Question 2, Keith Ellison supported the creation of a new Department of Public Safety–the Minneapolis Police Department is now coming under a consent decree with the State for its pattern and practices of racial discrimination and human rights violations. 

These are just a few of Keith Ellison’s notable actions and accomplishments as Attorney General:

  • Sueing Exonn Mobile and Koch Industries for lying to the public about climate change when the industry knew the consequences of fossil fuels for decades
  • Taking on Big Pharma for illegally price-fixing generic medicine, price-gouging insulin, fueling the opioid crisis, and leading with TakeAction for a Prescription Drug Affordability Board
  • Standing up to predatory student loan lenders, slumlords, and HMOs attempting to legally walk away with billions of dollars that belong to the public.

As Attorney General, Keith Ellison has gone to bat for the people of Minnesota, leading with moral clarity and political courage. We have his back and are ready to re-elect the People’s Lawyer, Keith Ellison.
