Caucus to Support the North Star Act

On Tuesday, February 27, 2024 Minnesotans will participate in precinct caucuses. At caucuses you can bring resolutions about political topics that will be discussed and voted on. This is one way you can raise awareness about important issues with your neighbors, and make a political statement together.

This year MIRAC encourages people who attend a precinct caucus (for whatever political party) to bring copies of our resolution: Support the North STAR Act.

Bringing a resolution to your party of preference to Support the North STAR Act can be a good way to raise awareness and support for defending our immigrant neighbors.

Instructions for bringing the resolution to your precinct caucus:

1. Caucuses are Tuesday, February 27 at 7:00 p.m. Find out where your precinct caucus is here.

2. Before you go, make up to 50 copies of the resolution.

3. Show up a few minutes early and let the person in charge know that you have a resolution you would like on the agenda. Give them a copy of the resolution.

4. When your resolution comes up on the agenda, hand out copies of the resolution to everyone and be prepared to say a few words about why you think it’s important for people to support it.

5. If any of your neighbors express interest in learning more about or getting involved in the campaign, get their name and contact info to follow up and invite them to get involved!

6. Contact us at MIRACMN@gmail.com or on our facebook page after your caucus is over to let us know your precinct number, if the resolution passed there, and how it went. Was there interesting discussion? Did anyone propose amendments, and if so what were they? Did you meet people who are interested in getting involved in the campaign? We want to publicize all the precincts that passed the resolution to how that there is broad support for the North STAR Act.
