2020 Session Toolkit

Tuesday, February 11, 2020
Rep. Bierman

 

Dear Neighbors,

The Legislature returns to St. Paul today for the first day of the 2020 session. The House’s Minnesota Values Plan will largely build on the momentum we’ve made progress on from last year which includes prioritizing addressing prescription drug price-gouging, ensuring Minnesotans have access to paid family and medical leave, enacting common-sense solutions to prevent gun violence, and economic security for families and communities across the state through robust and regionally-balanced public infrastructure improvements.

Mini-Survey

Q: A recent state budget projection shows a one-time positive balance in the state budget. What should the Legislature do with it?

  • Decrease the cost of health insurance and prescription drugs
  • Build roads and bridges that are safe to drive on
  • Invest in the best possible education for our children
  • Cut taxes
  • Protect clean air and clear water
  • Address the climate crisis
  • Make college more affordable
  • Save for use in a future recession
  • Create affordable housing
  • Other

Please reply to this email, or give me a call to let me know what priorities for you and your family are.

Nonpartisan Resources for Following the 2020 Session

The House Public Information Services office, which is nonpartisan, is a great resource for staying updated on committee schedules, a bill’s status, or watching live coverage of Floor Sessions or committee hearings. You can sign up to receive nonpartisan news about the Legislature here. Give them a ‘like’ or a ‘follow’ on their Facebook and Twitter pages for quick snippets and real-time updates.

Community Coffee Hour

This Saturday, I’ll be at the Dunn Bros on Galaxie Ave. in Apple Valley from 9:00-10:30 a.m. Stop by for a hot beverage and let me know what’s on your mind. Your input helps shape our progress on the state level for our communities. No RSVP is necessary, but you can find the event on my official Facebook page here.
