Keith Ellison

Keith Ellison is bringing down costs for Minnesota families. As our Attorney General, Keith has taken on price-gouging insulin makers, hedge fund landlords, and price-fixing meatpackers who were illegally driving up prices for medicine, housing, and groceries.

Under Keith’s leadership, the Attorney General’s office has taken on the powerful on behalf of Minnesotans, lowering costs for Minnesotans by reducing the cost of insulin to $35, fighting price-gouging by greedy corporations, tackling medical debt, and holding opioid companies accountable for the deadly opioid epidemic. He is protecting tenants from exploitation, keeping Minnesotans safe from scammers and abuse, standing up for student borrowers, and holding greedy corporations accountable for screwing over Minnesotans.

Since day one, Keith has been fighting fraud, securing over 350 fraud convictions since he took office - that's one conviction every 8 days.

Keith is leading in the fight against the Trump Administration, because no one is above the law — even the President. He is fighting to defend our freedoms, protecting reproductive rights and access to gender-affirming care, organizing to restore the right to vote for 55,000 Minnesotans returning home from incarceration, and standing up for our trans neighbors.

Before becoming attorney general, Keith represented Minnesotans in the U.S. House of Representatives for 12 years, during which he championed consumer, worker, environmental, and civil rights protections for all. Before entering Congress, Keith served in the Minnesota House of Representatives for four years. He practiced law as a criminal defense and civil rights attorney for 16 years, including five years as executive director of the Legal Rights Center.

Keith doesn't just fight Medicaid fraud, he goes after scammers, predatory lenders, and dishonest businesses that target Minnesotans directly.
