Lindberg ran a floristry business and has been active in the Sweden Democrats since 2012 and was elected to the party's national board in 2015.[2][3] She also serves as the chairwoman of SD-women, the women's wing of the Sweden Democrats.[4] Lindberg was elected to the Riksdag in 2018 and sits on the EU Committee.[5] In this role, she has campaigned against a common EU pension system, EU influence over childcare policies in Sweden and called for the EU's power of member states to be "minimized."[6]
