My name is Julie Greene, and I want to be your next State Representative in the Minnesota House because I believe everyone has the right to live in a world where they are safe – and free to experience joy. I know this is possible — and I know it takes work.

As a former Edina School Board member, I know what strong representation and active engagement look like to be impactful in decision-making – listening to constituents' concerns and knowing how to effectively take action to address them. I bring practical experience and knowledge, proven accountability as a trusted leader, and innovative thinking and passion to this important role, and I ask for your support and vote on November 5.

It would be an honor to represent the people of Edina and Bloomington at the Capitol advocating for our shared values and priorities for a better Minnesota!

With much appreciation,

Julie

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

EDUCATION

Each and every child in the state of Minnesota deserves the opportunity to thrive by receiving a high-quality public education.

Fully-funding our public school systems for educational success and support resources for students pre-K-12 by eliminating our Special Education and English language learners services cross-subsidies;

Increasing and funding additional mental health resources, staff and programs for students and staff statewide to address increasing needs, especially those experiencing mental health crisis;

Expanding preschool options to give our youngest learners the important start they need to succeed;

Prioritizing student-centered learning by honoring local decision making for elected school boards.PUBLIC SAFETY + SECURITY

A comprehensive approach that identifies and supports multiple pillars for ensuring safety and securing in our homes and communities - which is essential to our well-being.

Effective actions to stop senseless gun violence in our communities like safe storage requirements and the reporting of stolen and lost firearms;

Ensuring our first responders are well-resourced and supported including wellness programs that address PTSD & related issues, increasing access to disability when needed, and providing PTO for work-related trauma;

Funding to support alternative response team programs within our cities’ response teams.EQUAL RIGHTS

Every individual has the right to equal protection and benefit of the law without discrimination of any kind. It is imperative our laws reflect this basic protection for our families, friends and neighbors, and that includes advocacy for individuals with disabilities so equal opportunity is truly rooted in accessibility.

Support passing the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) to our state Constitution;

Ensure policies are person-centered, and support funding to research, evaluate and address existing American Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant-deficiencies;

Support for LGBTQ+ people in all aspects of their lives.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Education, Gun Violence Prevention, Democracy Reforms, Equal Rights, Climate action and environmental protections, and Economic Opportunity.

What qualities do you possess that you believe would make you a successful officeholder?

Raised in the suburbs of Chicago with a pack of sisters, my parents instilled in me a core sense of responsibility to the community around us. This means we speak up for ourselves and others. We contribute to make things better. We do our part when we can. Even as a young girl, I understood the power of advocacy. As a pre-teen, I collected classmates’ signatures as the student council Vice President successfully petitioning for extended recess time in middle school (!). While in college, I worked to establish the first Victim’s Advocate Program at my alma mater. In my 20s and 30s, my career in public relations focused on many community-centric efforts including healthcare, education, nutrition, and children’s advocacy programs. I am a lifelong advocate, listener, and have a proven track record as someone who can get to work to make meaningful improvement in our communities. I will continue this as your next elected Representative.
