Your Minnesota Voting Guide

On November 3, voters will decide who represents them in Congress for the next two years, with both the House and Senate in play.

Voters deserve to know where their Members of Congress stand on the arts. That is why our national partners at the Arts Action Funding created the 2026 Congressional Arts Report Card highlights which lawmakers have supported arts funding and policies that strengthen the arts and creativity.

The stakes are high. While 76% of Americans agree that arts and culture are vital to our lives, the sector continues to face significant challenges. At risk are not only access to the arts, but also the $1.2 trillion creative economy and the 5.4 million jobs it supports.

This November, we have an opportunity to make our voices heard by supporting candidates who recognize the value of the arts and will fight for the policies and public funding our creative sector needs to thrive.
