Biography

Peter Allen Stauber (born May 10, 1966) is an American politician, former minor-league hockey player, and retired law enforcement officer from Minnesota serving as the United States representative for Minnesota's 8th congressional district. A member of the Republican Party, Stauber has represented the district since 2019. Stauber was born and grew up in Duluth, Minnesota. He played college hockey for Lake Superior State University, where, as a star player, he led the Lakers to a national championship in the 1988 NCAA Division I Men's Ice Hockey Tournament. Stauber met his political idol, President Ronald Reagan, when the team visited the White House after winning the championship. He later said this event kindled his political ambition. Stauber then had a brief career in minor-league hockey before serving as a lieutenant in the Duluth Police Department from 1995 to 2017. During his service as a police officer, he was shot while on duty. He also served as a county commissioner in St. Louis County, Minnesota, from 2013 to 2019. Stauber defeated Democratic nominee Joe Radinovich in the 2018 United States House of Representatives elections. Representing a working-class and mostly rural district, he is only the second Republican to represent his district since 1947.
