He is a member of parliament for one of the three parties in the "Red-Green" coalition government.

He is a member of the parliamentary committee on health issues. EDIT: Wikipedia says he is in the judicial committee.

He is also vice-president in one of the two 'chambers' of the parliament, the Odelsting.

His wife, Heidi Sørensen (not Kaja's mother) is also an MP for the same party.
