Hennepin County CommissionerKristy Janigo was instrumental as my policy director during my first two years in office, helping craft policies that set Hennepin County on a path to effectively ending veteran homelessness. She didn’t just help shape policy—she rolled up her sleeves and ensured those goals became reality through direct implementation and support in our Veterans Services Office. Her proven dedication makes her exactly the leader we need representing Senate District 37.
Kelsey Dawson
ISD279 School Board MemberAs the daughter of lifelong educators, a mother of four, and an Osseo School Board member, I know what it means to have champions for public education at the Capitol. Kristy has been that kind of leader on the Maple Grove City Council—leading with heart and a commitment to equity and excellence. She’ll bring that same integrity and courage to the State Senate. She understands how education shapes our workforce, our families, and our communities, and she shows up for students and educators when it matters. Our community and state needs her voice in the State Senate.
Ann Johnson Stewart
State SenatorI enthusiastically endorse Kristy Janigo for state senate. When Kristy testified in senate hearings as a veteran advocate, she brought an element of experience, passion, grace and poise to committee hearings, which helped legislators gain new understanding and support for veterans issues. Join me in backing Kristy Janigo’s candidacy for SD37!

Rob Kupec
State SenatorKristy has been a tireless supporter of veterans at the Capitol. As a member of the Subcommittee on Veterans we have worked together on legislation to help improve services for those that have served our country. I know that she will bring that same level of commitment and advocacy for the residents of her district to St. Paul.
Sandra Feist
State RepresentativeI am thrilled that Kristy Janigo is running for the State Senate. I’ve had the opportunity to work with her on legislation supporting Minnesota veterans and have seen firsthand the way that she brings expertise and conviction to getting things done at the Capitol. I’ve been incredibly impressed by her effectiveness to communicate across the political divide and bring people together. She will be a huge asset to the Minnesota Legislature!
Debbie Goettel
Hennepin County CommissionerI have known Kristy for five years, first as a policy aide at Hennepin County and later as a county representative to our veterans. Throughout her time, she spoke about and advocated for our veterans. Some of our success at the county at ending veteran’s homelessness is due to her great work. I watched her lead as a council person in her city of Maple Grove. She represents sound choices in governance with a particular eye to responsible fiscal accountability. She is constantly and consistently connecting with her residents to hear their challenges, struggles and needs. She will carry the voices of her residents to the Senate and advocate for them in the same way as she has for our veterans. She is tireless and unrelenting. She has my support.
Mike Parry
Former State SenatorI have watched Kristy see problems and move forward looking for solutions. Her priorities are finding ways to bring down costs for families, finding opportunities in the workforce for Minnesotans to thrive economically, and pursue their purpose. As a state senator, I believe Kristy will be a strong partner to the cities in District 37 because as a city council member she knows what it takes for local governments to deliver essential services. She will work tirelessly to rebuild trust and transparency in government, which we so much need today.
Ian Oundo
Community OrganizerI’m proud to endorse Kristy in her campaign for the Minnesota Senate in District 37. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working alongside her to build community across our communities, always with intention, compassion, and a deep commitment to equity. Kristy doesn’t just talk about change, she shows up, listens, and leads with integrity. Her dedication to public service and her ability to bring people together make her exactly the kind of leader Minnesota needs. I’m excited to continue this work with Kristy in the Senate, where I know she’ll be a powerful advocate for inclusive policies and meaningful progress for all Minnesotans.
