To: Major League Baseball (MLB) Officials, Minnesota State Legislators
The Minnesota Ballpark Authority (MBA), Local & National Media Outlets
We, the undersigned, are writing to advocate for a groundbreaking initiative: transitioning the Minnesota Twins to public ownership. With growing concerns over franchise relocations, profit-driven ownership decisions, and the importance of long-term stability, we believe that a fan-owned model is the best path forward for keeping the Twins in Minnesota and ensuring they thrive for generations to come.
Why Public Ownership?
Keeps the Twins in Minnesota forever—preventing future relocations.
Allows fans to own shares and have a direct say in governance.
Ensures profits are reinvested into the team & community, not private owners.
Strengthens Minnesota’s sports culture and economy with a community-driven model.
How This Would Work?
Shares would be made available to Minnesota residents and fans.
A Board of Directors (elected by shareholders) would oversee governance.
The Minnesota Ballpark Authority (MBA) could manage stadium operations.
Revenue from ticket sales, sponsorships, and TV deals would sustain the team.
To show the overwhelming support for this initiative, we have launched a public petition that is rapidly gaining momentum:

We respectfully ask for your support in advocating for this initiative, whether through legislative action, public endorsements, or discussions with MLB leadership. Publicly owned sports franchises, such as the Green Bay Packers, have demonstrated that this model can be both financially successful and deeply beneficial to the community.
We would appreciate the opportunity to discuss this initiative further and explore possible steps toward making this a reality. Please let us know a convenient time to connect.
Thank you for your time and consideration. We look forward to your response.
⚾ Sincerely,
Minnesota Twins Fans & Public Ownership Advocates
