Minnesota House of Representatives

edit

Hausman was first elected in a 1989 special election after Rep. Ann Wynia resigned to accept an appointment by Governor Rudy Perpich as Commissioner of the Minnesota Department of Human Services. She has been re-elected every two years since then. Prior to the 1992 legislative redistricting, her district was known as 63B.[2][3] She represented District 66B from 1993 to 2013. Due to redistricting, Hausman was forced to run for re-election in district 66A in 2012. She won re-election with about 63% of the vote.[4]

Personal life

edit

Hausman moved to Saint Paul in 1977. She is a Lutheran.[1]
