Legislative Update from Rep. Jeff Backer

Friday, April 12, 2024

Dear Neighbors,

It's been another busy week in St. Paul with much of our time spent on the House Floor debating and voting on several large bills. As we move into the end of this year's legislative session, I want to make sure that you know that I am available to chat with you to discuss any questions, comments, or concerns you may have. My contact information can be found at the bottom of this newsletter. Thank you!

This week, Democrats once again ignored a longstanding tradition of keeping changes to Minnesota's election laws broadly bipartisan so that neither side can claim an unfair advantage over the other.

Enacting partisan elections policy with virtually zero support from the other side is extremely concerning.
