Who is Rob Eastlund?
Robert B. "Rob" Eastlund is a Minnesota politician and a former member of the Minnesota House of Representatives who represented District 17A, which includes portions of Anoka, Chisago and Isanti counties in the east central part of the state just north of the Twin Cities metropolitan area. A Republican, he is also a business owner and property manager. On March 25, 2010, he announced that he would not seek a sixth term, stating that “the relentless schedule of the legislative session, special sessions, phone calls and family interruptions and the never-ending campaigning has left little time for my family or anything else.”
Eastlund was first elected to the House in 2000, and was re-elected in 2002, 2004, 2006 and 2008. Prior to the 2002 legislative redistricting, he represented the old District 18A. He was a member of the House Taxes Committee, and also served on the Finance subcommittees for the Capital Investment Finance Division, the Higher Education and Workforce Development Finance and Policy Division, and the Public Safety Finance Division, and on the State and Local Government Operations Reform, Technology and Elections Subcommittee for the Local Government Division, on which he was the ranking minority party member.
