Dear Neighbors, We’re coming down to the final days of the legislative session, and we’re making great progress. So far, we’ve already passed our Veterans, Higher Education, Housing, Legacy, and Agriculture budgets. Our other budget bills are almost complete as members of the House and Senate craft the final bills in conference committees, and I expect they’ll all be passed in a few days. With only a few remaining days, I imagine I’ll have a lot to share with you soon about our final state budget, what it does for Minnesotans, and the direct impact it’ll have on our community. It’s really shaping up to be a once in a generation investment in our state, and while it’ll be the crowning achievement of our work this year, I don’t want it to overshadow the great bills that have already been signed into law since we got started in January. Here’s a quick review of what we’ve done this year so far: |
