Biography

Amy Jean Klobuchar (born May 25, 1960) is an American politician and lawyer and a member of the Minnesota Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party, the state affiliate of the Democratic Party. A United States senator from Minnesota since 2007, she was elected governor of Minnesota in 2026, becoming the first woman elected to the office, and is currently governor-elect.

She graduated from Yale University and the University of Chicago Law School and became a partner at two Minneapolis law firms. Elected Hennepin County attorney in 1998, she served from 1999 to 2007 and was responsible for all criminal prosecution in Minnesota's most populous county.

In 2006 she succeeded Mark Dayton in the Senate, becoming the first woman elected to the U.S. Senate from Minnesota, and she became the state's senior senator in 2009. She was reelected in a landslide in 2012, carrying 85 of the state's 87 counties, and again in 2018 and 2024; in 2021 she became chair of the Senate Rules Committee. Her positions align with modern liberalism, with a focus on healthcare reform, consumer protection, abortion rights, agriculture and climate change.

She ran in the 2020 Democratic presidential primaries, suspending her campaign in March 2020 and endorsing Joe Biden. In January 2026, after incumbent governor Tim Walz withdrew from the race, she entered the contest for governor, won the nomination and defeated Republican nominee Lisa Demuth in the general election.
