A grandson of mayors, Genba was elected in 1991 to the Fukushima Prefectural Assembly. Two years later he won a seat in the Lower House and joined New Party Sakigake the same year. He joined the DPJ in 1998.

Genba supports the income compensation system for farmers to bolster agriculture and regional economies.
