SCI-PAC Endorses Rep. Pete Stauber for Reelection in Minnesota’s 8th District

Safari Club International’s Political Action Committee (SCI-PAC) proudly endorses Representative Pete Stauber (R-MN-08) for reelection.

Representative Stauber, a former law enforcement officer and lifelong outdoorsman, has advocated to give wildlife managers more flexibility instead of rigid federal mandates. He was a bold supporter of the Endangered Species Act Amendments Act of 2025, securing an amendment that requires federal agencies to coordinate with state, local, and tribal governments before making species listing decisions.

“In these midterm elections, SCI-PAC is backing candidates who will fight shoulder to shoulder with us to further SCI’s mission to protect Americans’ freedom to hunt and to advance sustainable wildlife conservation,” said SCI CEO W. Laird Hamberlin. “This is a critical time for sportsmen and women. Anti-hunting activists and bureaucrats are hoping the midterms will empower those who would push to regulate our way of life out of existence, and SCI-PAC is putting our resources behind the candidates who will stand up to them when and where it matters.”

With this endorsement, SCI-PAC is proud to support Representative Stauber as a strong voice for hunting and conservation in Minnesota.
