In January 2015, Congressman Erik Paulsen was sworn in to serve his fourth term representing Minnesota’s Third Congressional District. Paulsen’s legislative agenda parallels the initiatives that make Minnesota a great place to live, work and raise a family: a strong economic climate for job growth, a fairly-funded and accountable education system, a well-preserved environment, safe communities, and tax reform for taxpayers and businesses. Erik serves as co-chair of the House Medical Technology Caucus and is a leader in advocating for the medical technology industry, the life-saving technologies it provides to patients, and the hundreds of thousands of jobs it supports. In addition, he is co-chair of the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) Caucus to promote trade with Europe.
