Congresswoman Fischbach Seeks Another Term in Congress

Congresswoman Fischbach Seeks Another Term in Congress

Litchfield, Minnesota – Today, Congresswoman Michelle Fischbach announced her campaign for another term as the Seventh District Representative. Fischbach was elected to Congress in 2020 and recently secured re-election with over 70% of the vote.

“It is a new day in Washington, D.C., with President Trump in the White House and republican majorities in Congress,” said Fischbach. “We have been given an opportunity by voters to do the things that are needed to save our great nation. I launched my campaign in 2020 to push for stronger rural communities by cutting federal spending, rolling back burdensome regulations, and defending individual rights. We’re seeing these priorities being put into action under the America First agenda, and I want to continue working as the advocate for western Minnesota.”

Rep. Fischbach is now serving her third term after winning in November 2024 with the highest number of votes of any Minnesota congressional candidate of either party.
