Congressman Dean Phillips joins the Institute as part of our American Stage Series. Phillips formally launched his presidential campaign on Fri., Oct. 27 and filed to run in New Hampshire’s Democratic primary.
Dean Phillips is the Representative for Minnesota's Third Congressional District in Congress. In 2018 Phillips unseated five-term Republican Erik Paulsen - the first time in almost six decades that a Republican didn't carry that district. He has won re-election twice and, in 2022, by his widest margin — 59.6% to Republican challenger Tom Weiler's 40.4%.
Dean is Ranking Member of the House Small Business Committee and Ranking Member of the House Foreign Affairs Middle East, Northern Africa, and Central Asia Subcommittee.
The nonpartisan Lugar Center ranks Dean as the 13th most bipartisan out of 435 Members of Congress. He has been named a Fiscal Hero by the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget and was recognized by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce with the Jefferson-Hamilton Award for Bipartisanship in the 116th and 117th Congress.
