Minnesota U.S. Rep. Pete Stauber launches bid for third term

Minnesota Republican U.S. Rep. Pete Stauber kicked off his re-election campaign on Monday, seeking a third term in the northeastern Eighth District in Congress on a message that one-party control in Washington isn't working.

In a video release from his campaign, Stauber blamed Democrats for rising crime, inflation and energy prices and mandates on businesses during the pandemic and said he's running again to "champion our causes."

"Supply chains are breaking. China and Russia are laughing at us. Our borders are weakened and not secure," Stauber says in the video, sitting at a table with his wife. "Our law enforcement is under attack, and our public safety is threatened. Businesses are handcuffed by tyrannical government mandates and lockdowns. Parents are being told that they have no say in their children's education. Enough is enough."
