Also referred to as a congressman or congresswoman, each Representative is elected to a two-year term serving the people of a specific congressional district in the federal government. Among other duties such as impeachment of executive branch members, representatives introduce bills and resolutions with the responsibility of revenue, serve on committees, and can help their constituents receive federal benefits or services. The number of representatives per state is proportional to population with 435 in total.If your candidate didn’t fill in the guide below, visit the Secretary of State’s Candidate Filing site to find contact info.

Public safety is top of mind. Minnesotans want to know that elected officials are working hard to ensure their safety.
I’ve brought home federal funding for local law enforcement to make sure they have the support they need to protect Minnesotans & get home safely themselves.
Minnesotans are also rightly worried about abortion rights. We talk a lot about the need to restore & protect reproductive freedoms nationwide in the post-Roe world.
Finally, Minnesotans are concerned about the fentanyl crisis & our southern border.
Earlier this year, my bipartisan END FENTANYL Act was signed into law & I was able to push the President to act to limit border crossings. I’ll keep working to secure the border & keep Minnesotans safe.
We’ve got to do more to rise above partisan politics & find the commonsense solutions needed to make life better for everyday Minnesotans.
That’s why I’m pushing to expand career & technical education – because a 4-year degree should be an option, not the expectation for our young folks.
I also wrote the bill to get rid of federal taxes on Social Security & am working to create a federal task force to crack down on corporate greed & lower costs for Minnesotans.
Climate change is an environmental issue, an economic issue, a national security issue & a civil rights issue.
I’ve made it a focus of mine to help curb carbon emissions & hold large corporations accountable for the pollution they create. That’s why I’ve been working to shore up resources for conservation efforts & expand our renewable energy arsenal & create clean energy jobs. It’s also why I supported the Energy Innovation & Carbon Dividend Act to limit greenhouse gasses in our environment.
Every Minnesotan should have access to the affordable health care they need to live a safe & healthy life – that starts with taking on Big Pharma & lowering the costs of prescription drugs. I wrote the bill to cap insulin copays for those on Medicare at $35/month.
Now, I’m pushing to do the same for all Americans.
I’m fighting to fully restore & protect reproductive freedoms across this country – because every woman should be able to make her own health care decisions.
I believe that our democracy relies on free & fair elections. I worked hard to help pass the For the People Act through the House to protect American voting rights & ensure the integrity of our elections. I’ve also helped pass the Electoral Count Reform Act, which established guidelines for certifying & counting electoral votes.
America is at its best when everyone has an equal say in the future of this country. I’ll always fight to make sure that’s the reality.
