I'm running for U.S. Senate because I believe in our future. I believe in a thriving economy, healthy families, and a government accountable to you. With my experience as a state senator, businesswoman, and mom, I will be a new voice for Minnesota.
The daughter of two public school teachers, Karin was born and raised in South St. Paul. She married her high school sweetheart, Phil Housley, in 1985. For 20 years, Phil's NHL Hall of Fame hockey career took the Housleys all over the United States and Canada – but Minnesota always remained their "forever home".
