Meet Steve Elkins, Your Representative for Minnesota House District 50B.

 

It is Steve’s privilege to represent the citizens of House District 50B in the Minnesota House of Representatives.

Steve is deeply rooted in Bloomington, which he has served for over 25 years as a City Councilmember, Planning Commissioner, Housing & Redevelopment Commissioner, Metropolitan Councilmember, and, for the past six years, as the Representative for the western part of the City in the Minnesota House of Representatives.

Steve currently serves on the Commerce Finance, Fraud Prevention and State Oversight, Health Finance, and Taxes Committees, where he has leveraged his life experiences in economics, information technology, local government, transportation, and healthcare to become a legislative leader on subjects including health care access and cost control, transportation, housing policy, and consumer data privacy. (His comprehensive Minnesota Consumer Data Privacy Act passed this year, with broad bipartisan support.) A member of the bipartisan Civility Caucus, Steve has cultivated a reputation for pursuing a thoughtful bipartisan approach to legislating that incorporates the suggestions of all stakeholders to achieve consensus on carefully considered legislation, even on these complex topics.

You’re invited to review Steve’s stances on key issues in the Issues section of my website and his personal legislative initiatives in the Steve’s Legislation section.

For the election, Steve has created a Voter Resources page with one-stop shopping for everything you need to know to cast your vote between now and Tuesday, November 5th, including polling locations and hours, sample ballots, League of Women Voters videos, and Candidate Guides.
