Biography
Michelle Louise Helene Fischbach ( FISH-bahk; née St. Martin; born November 3, 1965) is an American politician and attorney serving since 2021 as the U.S. representative from Minnesota's 7th congressional district. The district, which is heavily rural, is Minnesota's largest by area and includes most of the western part of the state. A Republican, Fischbach served from 2018 to 2019 as the 49th lieutenant governor of Minnesota. As of 2026, she is the last Republican to have held statewide office in Minnesota. Fischbach was a member of the Minnesota Senate from 1996 to 2018, serving as president of that body from 2011 to 2013 and from 2017 to 2018. When Governor Mark Dayton appointed Tina Smith to the U.S. Senate following Al Franken’s resignation, Fischbach was elevated to the office of lieutenant governor, as required by the Minnesota Constitution. While serving as the incumbent lieutenant governor of Minnesota, Fischbach was former Governor Tim Pawlenty's nominee for lieutenant governor in the Minnesota Republican Party primary during the 2018 Minnesota gubernatorial election. Pawlenty and Fischbach lost the primary election to Jeff Johnson. In the 2020 U.S. House elections, Fischbach defeated 30-year DFL incumbent Collin Peterson.
