Patriotic Millionaires’ TAXPAC Endorses Peggy Flanagan for U.S. Senate
“We need candidates who have what it takes to turn the tide in America and reverse the economic destruction of the President Trump’s bill”
ST. LOUIS PARK, MN [7/11/25]—Today the Flanagan campaign announced that TAXPAC, the political arm of the national organization Patriotic Millionaires, has endorsed Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan for U.S. Senate. The organization is made up of millionaires from around the country who believe in an equitable economy that benefits every American, not just the ultra-wealthy.
“I’m a Democrat because I believe government should benefit working people, not just billionaires and corporations—and the members of Patriotic Millionaires understand this to their core,” said Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan. “It’s an honor to have the members of TAXPAC supporting my campaign to challenge the status quo in Washington and build a fair economy.”
“As the current Lieutenant Governor of Minnesota, Peggy Flanagan has a track record of getting things done to help those who need it the most. At a time where Minnesotans are facing multiple, concurrent crises, voters can trust that Peggy will continue to be a tremendous advocate for workers and tax fairness in the US Senate,” said TAXPAC Executive Director Jodie Rubenstein. “We need candidates who have what it takes to turn the tide in America and reverse the economic destruction of President Trump’s bill, which promises to make our situation far worse by giving lavish tax cuts to the rich and corporations, all while cutting the critical social services that working Americans rely on.”
TAXPAC’s endorsement comes on the heels of Flanagan’s announcement that her campaign hauled in nearly $1 million for the second quarter of 2025. Her campaign has support from over 20,000 individual donors. The average contribution was under $30 and 94% of donations were under $100. In addition to a groundswell of grassroots support, Flanagan has received more endorsements than any other candidate in the race with over four dozen from national and Minnesota leaders and organizations.
