I’m Trina Swanson, and I’m running for Congress in MN-08 because I want to bring Opportunity at Home. Healthcare. Jobs. Affordability.

Hermantown, MN
It’s time for new representation that appreciates this great state and fights to attract new investment. If you didn’t watch last night, please check out the debate here: youtube.com/live/zbS7NiO-MbU… It was our interview to represent you in Congress.

I’m proud to have the endorsement of the Machinists Union. I come from a union household and was a longtime AFGE union member. I know firsthand how much unions matter to working families and the communities they help build.

I’m running for Congress because working people deserve a representative who understands the challenges they face and will stand up for their opportunity to build a good life here at home. Thank you to the Machinists Union (@IAM_Union) for your support. #MN08

We had a great time at the Aitkin Harvest Dinner. People are fired up for November. There are so many incredible volunteers working hard for candidates up and down the ballot. Let’s get it done!

A working-class salary should be enough to build a life, buy a home and give your kids a chance to follow their dreams. For too many families, that feels out of reach. That’s one of the reasons I’m running. #MN08 #OpportunityAtHome

For too many people in rural Minnesota, geography still limits opportunity. A job might be available 50 miles away. A business might have customers across the country. Reliable broadband can change that.

It can make it possible to work for an employer somewhere else without moving away. It can help a small business reach customers beyond its town. And it can give people more choices without asking them to leave the communities they love.

That's what bringing opportunity home means to me. We shouldn't have to choose between a good job and the place we call home. What do we fix first? Opportunity at Home. #TrinaForCongress #OpportunityAtHome #MN08 #Broadband #RuralMinnesota

Proud to have the support of @EducationMN and the 84,000+ educators and students they represent. Our public schools and the people who make them strong deserve a representative who will listen, show up and fight for them. I’m honored to have their endorsement! #MN08 #Education

Minnesota has the iron ore. Iowa is getting the steel plant and 1,750 permanent jobs. The question isn't whether Minnesota has the workers or the resources. We do. What are our leaders doing to make sure Minnesota gets its share of the investments and good-paying jobs? #MN08

We don't have to agree on everything. But let's talk about the issues. Let's talk about the votes. Let's talk about what people will actually fight for in Congress. Let's have more honest conversations about what matters. #TrinaForCongress #MN08

You showed up in August in numbers this district hadn’t seen in more than a generation. Thank you. That turnout tells me people are paying attention. They’re listening, asking questions and thinking about what representation should look like. Now, it’s time to show up again.
