Rep. Noor




*Dear Neighbors,*

We’re back in the swing of things at the State Capitol! Right now, Republicans control committees, but even with their 1-member advantage, they still require DFL support to pass anything. If we return to a tie, committees would have balanced membership and DFL and GOP co-chairs.

Regardless of where this session goes, I know there are a lot of common-ground issues for us to work on together, and I’m approaching proposals from my Republican colleagues with an open mind. That said, in the short time Republicans have controlled committees, they’ve brought forward bills that try to stop paid family and medical leave, funnel your tax dollars to the wealthy, attack trans athletes, and much more. We can work together, but I’ll never sacrifice our community’s shared values and principles.

I am also aware of the numerous destructive actions taken by the Trump administration. I will work to fight his worst policies and ensure that our community can remain strong through these difficult times. I’ll keep you up to date with actions I am taking in the future, stay tuned.

Cold Weather Protection and Weatherization

As cold weather sets in, I want to share a quick reminder that Minnesota’s “cold weather rule” is now in effect, which protects residents from having their electric or natural gas service shut off until April 30.

To ensure your service is safe from disconnection, you must make and keep a payment plan that you and your utility provider agree on. More information is available on the Minnesota Department of Commerce’s website [ [link removed](CWR,and%20your%20utility%20agree%20on. ].

Also, an initiative the state legislature strengthened in 2021 may help lower costs. While older homes have their charm, many homeowners needing basic home improvements like repairing windows, removing asbestos, repairing cracked foundations or siding often face challenges paying upfront for these pre-weatherization measures. Minnesotans using CenterPoint or Xcel Energy can schedule an appointment with the Home Energy Squad to visit their homes to identify low cost energy-saving solutions. Each visit is approximately two hours, and during that time, the Home Energy Squad will perform various energy-saving tests, inspect your insulation, heating and cooling systems, and water heater.
