State Government
In 2012, I was elected to represent the people of Forest Lake, Stillwater, and the surrounding St. Croix Valley in the Minnesota Senate. In that time, we have made a real difference. I’m proud of our accomplishments together, including passing landmark protections for elderly and vulnerable Minnesotans, making record investments in area schools, cutting your taxes, and navigating a once-in-a-lifetime pandemic.
Now, there is more work to do, and I am asking for your support to continue representing our communities in the Minnesota Senate. I have lived in this district for more than 30 years. I raised my family here, my kids went to school here, and now my grandkids are growing up here. As we confront our state’s many challenges ahead, I will continuing bringing my leadership and experience to the Capitol every day as I work to get things done for you.
