Representative Matt Grossell Announces Retirement

St. Paul, MN — After four consecutive terms in the Minnesota House of Representatives Rep. Matt Grossell (R – Clearbrook) announces he will not be seeking re-election in 2024. Prior to joining the House of Representatives in 2017, Representative Grossell served as a Clearwater County Sheriff’s Deputy. Currently, he represents District 2A which includes Lake of the Woods County as well as portions of Beltrami and Clearwater counties.

Representative Grossell has consistently worked on the Public Safety committees for all four terms as well as the Judiciary committees for the past three biennia where he has championed bringing attention to the scourge of child sexual abuse. His committee work also includes time on Capitol Investment, Education Innovation Policy, and Veterans and Military Affairs.

“This has been such an honor to represent my community in St. Paul for these 8 years. A sufficient amount of time for one person to hold office.” Said Rep. Grossell of his time in the legislature. “I am looking forward to finishing strong in St. Paul, especially through pushing for tax cuts, which are critical for families and small businesses facing record inflation. Additionally, I believe it is important to provide our officers with the support they need to excel in our state.”

“While I look forward to retirement in Alaska to be near family; as well as with better tax rates and better support for police, I will always call the north woods my home. God’s blessings to my constituents, colleagues, and the state of Minnesota”
