About Us

Gender Justice Action shares a unified vision with our 501(c)3 sister organization, Gender Justice, which focuses on legal advocacy and public education. We envision a world where everyone can thrive regardless of their gender, gender expression, or sexual orientation. Step by step, we’re creating that world by dismantling legal, structural, and cultural barriers that contribute to gender inequity. We work to ensure that people of all genders have a meaningful right to bodily autonomy, safety, respect, and opportunity.

Our mission is to advance gender equity through meaningful advocacy and political action.

The obstacles to realizing our goals of gender justice have reached a new order of magnitude. U.S. politics, policymaking, and the judicial system have been infected by an alarming radical right-wing agenda that poses an existential threat to our rights, livelihoods, and democracy.

With your support, Gender Justice Action is overcoming this opposition and advancing a transformative legislative agenda motivated by justice and liberation in the face of gender-based oppression in the Upper Midwest.

By mobilizing the majority of Minnesotans who support gender equity, we are building a grassroots movement to elect gender equity champions through targeted electoral strategies and pass policies to to expand reproductive freedom and LGBTQ rights.
