MFB PAC Releases 2022 Endorsements

The Minn Farm Bureau Political Action Committee (MFB PAC) recently announced its candidate endorsements for the upcoming 2022 state legislative elections. Additionally, the Minnesota Farm Bureau Federation Political Action Committee (MFBF PAC) announced candidate endorsements in federal races.

PAC endorsements are based on a candidate’s support of MFBF policy. Candidates participate in interviews with Farm Bureau members across the state, who in turn make recommendations to the State PAC Committee to make a final endorsement decision. 

“The MFBF PAC Committee endorsement process is an important step in engaging with candidates for political office,” said Committee Chair Ray Johnson. “These endorsements help us to understand candidate viewpoints on key agricultural issues as we look ahead to the election in November and provide insight on how our farmers and ranchers can connect with candidates to help them understand the issues.” 

The PAC Committee is comprised of county Farm Bureau members from across the state. The MFB and MFBF PACs are voluntary and do not receive financial support from MFBF membership dues.

The MFB PAC endorses the following candidates in state races:
