Happy Holidays
First, I hope you and your families have had a memorable and safe holiday season. As we celebrate and head into the new year, I wish you all a bright 2025.
New Laws in Effect January 1st
On January 1, some of the new policies and investments we passed at the State Capitol will take effect, including a ban on “junk fees”, employers being required to post salary ranges with job listings, and banning lightbulbs with dangerous mercury.
You can read about these new laws and more in this nonpartisan summary.
You’re Invited to a Town Hall
On January 8th, I’ll be hosting a town hall at the St. Louis Park Public Library starting at 6:30pm. Join me as I answer questions about the 2023-2024 legislative sessions, share some of my priorities for next session, and discuss pretty much whatever you’d like. Please come if you can!
