Welcome to The Eighth

The eighth district is the largest in Minnesota spanning more than 27,000 square miles! Meet our candidates below... 

Welcome to Our "New" District

In February 2022, most of our legislative borders were adjusted to appropriately reflect the population changes recorded in the 2020 U.S. Census. 

Congressman Stauber: Representing Us in The Eighth.

Pete will always stand for the unborn and strongly opposes any efforts to use taxpayer funds for abortion. As a former law enforcement officer and a victim of two violent gun crimes, Pete is committed to protecting the 2nd Amendment guaranteeing your right to defend your family and your home. Pete also is fighting against the tyrannical mandates wrongly imposed by Joe Biden and Tim Walz on our businesses, schools, and our own personal medical decisions. Enough is enough.
