Core Issues

Minnesota NOW is a multi-issue, multi-strategy feminist organization actively working to create change in Minnesota. We focus our efforts on six core issues: constitutional equality, economic justice, freedom from violence, LGBT rights, racial justice, and reproductive rights.

Constitutional Equality

Minnesota NOW advocates for amendments guaranteeing gender equality in both the U.S. and Minnesota Constitutions.


Economic Justice

Minnesota NOW fights for economic justice, including a living wage, pay equity, affordable child care, and more.


Freedom from Violence

Minnesota NOW believes that everyone should be able to live their lives free from violence.


LGBTQ Rights
