Biography
Dean Benson Phillips (né Pfefer; born January 20, 1969) is an American politician and businessman who has served as the U.S. representative from Minnesota’s 3rd congressional district since 2019. A member of the Democratic Party, his district encompasses the western suburbs of the Twin Cities, such as Bloomington, Minnetonka, Edina, Maple Grove, Plymouth, and Eden Prairie. Outside of politics, Phillips has both owned and started several companies in addition to serving as president and CEO of his family’s liquor business, the Phillips Distilling Company. He is the former co-owner of Talenti gelato and co-owns Penny’s Coffee.
First elected in 2018, Phillips defeated six-term Republican incumbent Erik Paulsen. By flipping the previously Republican district, he became the first Democrat to win the seat since 1958, and has since been reelected twice by comfortable margins. In November 2023, Phillips announced that he would not run for reelection. Despite consistently voting in support of President Joe Biden’s policy positions, he challenged him for the Democratic Party nomination in the 2024 presidential election. Phillips received the second-highest number of delegates of any candidate in the primaries (four), but was unsuccessful.
