 On Wednesday, Governor Walz and Lieutenant Governor Flanagan announced?a ten-year economic expansion plan to bring down costs and invest in working families to? move Minnesota forward. Their plan details dozens of actions, including expanding child care to support working families, collaborating with employers and labor organizations to prepare students for their careers, and expanding public-private partnerships to provide support for small business owners.?
Last week, Minnesota's Department of Employment and Economic Development announced that Minnesota's unemployment rate hit 1.8%, making history with the lowest monthly unemployment rate that any state has ever reported. This comes just as Moody?s has rated Minnesota as AAA ? the highest rating achievable ? due to the state?s diverse economy and history of strong financial results.
"As we continue to manage global instability, we will keep working to lower costs and invest in the people who made our state strong in the first place," said Governor Walz.
Governor Walz proclaimed Tuesday, July 26 as Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Day to commemorate the 32nd anniversary of the ADA and reflect on the strides Minnesota has made while recommitting to listening to and supporting Minnesotans with disabilities to build a more inclusive state.
"On the 32nd anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, we honor those who fought tirelessly for true disability justice and recommit to creating a state where all Minnesotans with disabilities have access to the support they need to thrive," said Lieutenant Governor Flanagan.?
 Last Friday, Governor Walz visited Guardian Energy in Janesville to discuss how the Walz-Flanagan Administration is working to foster the growth of our biofuel industry to lower costs for Minnesotans and move our state toward a cleaner, greener future.?
