Maps of Senate District
Senate District 42 Democrats run the range from liberal, to moderate, to fiscally conservative. We all have different backgrounds, outlooks, and priorities. But we share the common goal of creating a vibrant 21st century Minnesota.
Some people feel that politics bypasses them, but we're active in the DFL because we believe we can initiate positive change through the political process. Many of us also volunteer in our community at our local schools and places of worship. So please come to one of our events and bring your experience and passion with you.

The minimum wage will be increased in increments to $9.50 in 2016.
