Grant Hauschild

Sen. Grant Hauschild is a dedicated public servant from Duluth running for reelection to the Minnesota Senate in November. Grant is a former city councilor and public policy professional who built his career fighting for rural communities at the local, state, and federal levels. As a legislator, his priorities include tax relief for families and seniors, lowering health care costs, funding public safety initiatives, and supporting sustainable economic development in northern Minnesota.

Grant was elected in a toss-up race in 2022, and this year will be just as competitive. With the DLCC’s support, Grant is prepared to defend his seat and help Democrats expand their majority in the Minnesota Senate.

Minnesota is on the frontlines of the fight against Trump and MAGA extremism. 2026 is a historic opportunity to build power in this true battleground, expand the one-seat blue majority in the state Senate, and re-establish a Democratic majority in the Minnesota House.

Minnesota Democrats have worked tirelessly for progress while standing up to federal bullying. Meanwhile, Republicans have largely stood by while the Trump administration has withheld federal funds, targeted Minnesota communities with masked federal agents, and failed to address rising costs and quality of life concerns.

The DLCC’s continued support in Minnesota helped Democrats win and protect a majority in the state Senate in 2022 and tie the state House in 2024. On the heels of six majority-deciding special elections this cycle, Democrats have momentum on their side, announcing that the DFL has reached a fundraising record and full candidate recruitment for the first time ever.

Minnesota is poised for historic progress this year, but Republicans are desperate to sell out their constituents to advance Trump’s self-serving agenda. The stakes have never been higher, and the DLCC is all hands on deck to bring national support and attention to the Minnesota candidates fighting for the future of the North Star State.
