1972

She married her high school sweetheart, John Minnis, in 1972, with whom she has three children: two married sons and a daughter.

They also have three grandsons and one granddaughter.

While a housewife, Minnis held jobs as a dental assistant, a waitress, and delivering newspapers, putting John through college.

John first told Minnis he wanted to run for office when she was pregnant with their third child.

She then worked as his legislative aide for a decade, an experience she credited with providing a valuable education in politics.

Born and raised in Portland, Minnis is a graduate of James Monroe High School in Portland and attended Clark Community College in Vancouver, Washington.

Karen ran for John's seat in the House in 1998, when he was forced out of office by newly enacted (and short-lived) term limits.

In 2004, Brading spent only $33,000 to Minnis' $200,000, but came within seven percentage points of winning the race; in 2006, total spending by both candidates approached $1 million, in one of the most expensive House races in Oregon history.

2006

In the 2006 election, Democrats took control of the House.

After the election, Minnis stated she would not seek any leadership positions, but would instead focus on representing her district.

2007

Minnis served her fifth term in the House, during the 2007–2008 sessions.

She represented District 49, which included the cities of Fairview, Troutdale, and Wood Village, and a portion of Gresham, in east Multnomah County.
