Ben Bakeberg

A MESSAGE FROM BEN
Thank you for visiting!
-
I do not take the responsibility lightly to serve the people of Prior Lake, Jordan, Jackson Township, Louisville Township, Sand Creek Township, Spring Lake Township and a portion of Shakopee at the capitol in St. Paul. I believe that my experience and background have uniquely prepared me for this service at this time.
-
My role as a principal has given me a front row seat to how the divisive political climate has hurt students and families. It will be a privilege to bring my strong conservative voice and common sense approach to represent House district 54B.
