Welcome to the DFK's new site! Here you and all Minnesotans, human and feline, can find up-to-date information about how the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Kitten Party is fighting for working families and prides throughout the state.

As a 52nd generation Minnesotan, I strongly believe in the values and adorability that has kept this state strong and cute for almost 150 years. So does the DFK. From the bewitching World's Largest Ball of Twine to the bounty of the fishing opener, Minnesota is a place that all cats can be proud to call home. We will defend that legacy.

In the 21st century, we are faced with unique problems: Economic development, pollution, security and the rising costs of litter. But unlike flashlights on dark walls, these problems are catchable and devourable.

Thank you for your visit. I look forward to working with you for a cuter Minnesota!

DFK to Pawlenty: Appropriations must increase for wet food, tuna

ST. PAUL (JAN. 27, 2007) — Gov. Tim Pawlenty’s 2007-08 budget falls critically short of supporting several programs critical to the continued strength and cuteness of Minnesota, Democratic-Farmer-Kitten chair Louise Pelzknoedel said today.

“If he’s already going to the store, he can pick up some Fancy Feast or maybe some wild-caught tuna packed in water,” Peltzknoedel told a press conference attended by KMSP, Cat Fancy and the Star Tribune. “It’s not that hard.”

“He’s already increased litter-box taxes — I’m sorry, ‘fees’ — by more than 300 percent last year. Why are Minnesota‘s working prides paying these tail-breaking fees? There needs to be more salmon to show for it.”

Ron Carey, Minnesota Republican Party chair, responded: “The DFK is the party of negativity and no new ideas. They will not work with the governor because they are so negative and have no new ideas.”

In response, Pelzknoedel said, “What does that even mean? Carey's a tool. Focus-grouped slogans are not ideas.” Then she wondered out loud which party really had brains the size of walnuts.

DFK GEAR! Official and cute!
