Collin Peterson will seek reelection in 2020

Minnesota Congressman Collin Peterson, the current chair of the House Agriculture Committee, plans to seek reelection.

The Democrat has served Minnesota’s Seventh District in Congress since 1991.

He says the decision to run again wasn’t easy because the country is so polarized right now.  But Peterson says that’s also why he wants to ask voters in western Minnesota to support him again.

Peterson is credited with helping shape the past three farm bills.
