Events
From Main Street to the Capitol; it starts here, at home.
Campaigns aren’t won behind a desk—they’re won by showing up, listening, and working side-by-side with our neighbors. That’s why I’m out in our communities every chance I get. From coffee chats and town halls to parades and local fundraisers, these events are a chance for us to connect, talk about the issues that matter most, and work toward solutions together.
Check back often for updates on where I’ll be next. We’ll post new events here as soon as they’re confirmed so you can join in and be part of the conversation.

Campaign Kick-Off!
Join us for Heather Holmes’ 2026 Campaign Kick-Off!
On Tuesday, September 9, we’re kicking off Heather’s campaign for Minnesota House District 24A with a taco bar, good company, and a speaking program featuring Heather and community leaders including Jake Johnson (Congressional Candidate), Simon Glaser (State Senate Candidate), Rep. Tina Liebling, Sen. Liz Boldon, Rep. Kim Hicks, Rep. Andy Smith, and more.
It’ll be a night of food, neighbors, and conversation — but most importantly, it’s the start of Heather’s 2026 campaign. Heather often says, “change happens at the speed of trust,” and that’s exactly what we’re building together. In 2024, Heather earned the trust of neighbors across the district by listening and lifting up the issues that matter most: supporting rural schools, strengthening healthcare access, and protecting our freedoms. Now she’s building on that foundation and organizing earlier than ever before.
Your contribution today is an investment in that trust. When you RSVP, you’re powering Heather’s campaign to meet voters where they are, grow our movement, and take the fight directly to entrenched interests in St. Paul.
📅 Date: Tuesday, September 9, 2025
🕠 Time: 5:30 – 7:30 PM
📍 Location: NE Dodge County, address provided prior to the event
Most Minnesotans can take advantage of the Political Contribution Refund (PCR) program — which means you can give up to $75 per person ($150 per couple) and get it back from the state. (Please note: $15 of your contribution covers food and is not refundable.)
Space is limited — RSVP today and help launch Heather’s 2026 campaign with tacos, community, and a shared commitment to trust-driven change.
