Legislative Update

The dark smoke-filled rooms have started once again at the state capitol. We?ve seen a number of conference committees with no Republicans and now returning committee reports after amendments have been posted mere minutes before the hearing. This is what happened as two gun control measures were added to the public safety bill Wednesday evening. Everyone should be able to agree that such controversial measures should be debated with public input and fair notice.

One provision that got added to the Higher Education Omnibus as it made its way through conference committee was free tuition for students whose families make less than $80K per year. While a means to higher education is important I am disappointed in the way this is being implemented. This shifts a huge amount of cost onto Minnesota taxpayers and even more concerningly covers some of the cost by eliminating the grants program for high-need industries. A more targeted and nuanced approach could have been far more effective than just throwing lots of money at the problem of ballooning higher education costs.

Happy Mother?s Day on Sunday, hopefully you will be making time with family to show your appreciation for all that our moms do. Whether with breakfast in bed or a nice dinner out, this is a day to celebrate and honor all the love, care, and sacrifices our moms have made for us. They are the backbone of our family, and we cannot thank them enough for everything you do. May your day be filled with joy, love, and relaxation.
