The chief function of a legislator is to enact laws. Each legislator represents a certain area as well as a number of individuals, referred to as constituents, who live in that area. In Minnesota, a state senator represents roughly 78,000 people, while a representative or house member represents approximately 39,000 people. There are 67 members in the Senate and 134 in the House. Senators’ terms are four years (two years in the first election following redistricting) while House members terms are two years.Learn more at the MN Senate website.A special primary will be held for this office on August 26, 2025.

My top three priorities are the cost of living, holding all Fraudsters accountable, and fully funding education. Thanks to corporations putting profits over people’s lives, the cost of health care is higher than ever, the price of groceries keeps going up, and utility bills keep climbing as additional pressure is put on the grid. Fraud needs to be addressed in the next legislative session in a way that is aggressive, transparent, and accountable to all communities, and we need to focus on work, not dirty politics. Finally, education needs to be a top priority. We need to fund our schools to retain skilled staff and attract new talent.
We need to keep workers in the trades, education, agriculture, and manufacturing, and I will push for legislation that supports these industries to grow. Regarding inflation, small businesses need to be able to compete in our state. State agencies should work to identify areas where redundancies in regulatory processes can be reduced. Finally, for many Minnesotans, the biggest monthly expense is the cost of health care. We need to establish a statewide plan that lowers costs for Minnesotans.
I believe that everyone deserves to be treated fairly. We are all created equal. Working on making sure every child has fair and continued access to Healthcare education, and work opportunities is the success we need to measure our state by. Properly funding these systems is key to producing fair outcomes, and I would support legislation that attempts to correct any inequalities that exist.
I support the adoption of a ballot issue to add the Equal Rights Amendment into the Minnesota State Constitution. We can be proud of who we are and who we have been, but we should always strive to be better. Everyone in this state deserves equal rights and protections.
I will support any legislation that protects clean air and water in the state of Minnesota, our children deserve to grow up in a healthy environment and to enjoy all that the great outdoors have to offer.
We deserve to feel safe in our communities and I support our first responders and police. They do difficult, essential work and deserve our thanks. I would support legislation and programs that strengthen the bonds between communities and police departments as well as intervention systems for vulnerable populations, particularly youth. I also will support protecting retirement, and if possible improving it.
Big money is a huge problem in our politics and I would seek to ban corporate PACs from operating in Minnesota, especially those coming from out of state. I also support term limits for elected officials and end trading stocks while in office.
