BILLBOARD: via MPR News, VERBAITM: “A Minnesota lawmaker wants to prohibit new billboard signs across the state…Sen. John Marty, DFL-Roseville, said the signs detract from the state's natural scenic beauty, and pose a safety concern for motorists. He authored a bill that would impose a statewide moratorium on new billboards. MARTY: "When you look at all the marketing Minnesota does for tourism, you look at the TV commercials we provide, the online stuff to promote our state for tourism for other states — beautiful pictures — none of them have any billboards in them,” he said Wednesday during a hearing before the Senate transportation committee…Marty’s bill would allow existing billboards to remain but declare them a nonconforming use. Cities and counties could choose to phase them out over time.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/41ftaAU
NONPROFITS: via Minnesota Reformer, VERBATIM: “Some Minnesota lawmakers want to stop the practice of legislators giving money directly to nonprofits, concerned that it leads to uneven outcomes and lax oversight while favoring politically connected nonprofits. … Rep. Kristin Robbins, R-Maple Grove, [said] reducing the grants will require a ‘culture shift’ at the Capitol. Lawmakers are able to propose whatever bills they like, so there’s little stopping them from continuing to name nonprofits in bills and granting them funds. Ideally, Robbins said the Legislature should get rid of the practice of legislatively named grants, but she recognized that that would take time — and there’s no mechanism to make lawmakers do it.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/40YO5XS
PARENTS: via House Session Daily, VERBATIM: “HF22…establishes what Rep. Dawn Gillman (R-Dassel), the bill sponsor, calls the ‘Parent's Bill of Rights’ by listing fundamental rights of parents and prohibiting any political subdivision of the state or any other governmental entity or institution granted authority to act on behalf of the state, from infringing upon those rights. … The House Children and Families Finance and Policy Committee approved the bill, as amended, on a split-voice vote and moved it to the House Education Policy Committee.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/4gUUYzv
LIGHT RAIL: via House Session Daily, VERBATIM: “Rep. Kristin Robbins (R-Maple Grove) [sponsors] HF14 to temporarily prohibit any Metropolitan Council spending on any other light rail transit projects until the Southwest LRT Green Line extension project is completed. The primary project that would be affected by such a moratorium would be the METRO Blue Line extension. … The House Transportation Finance and Policy Committee took the bill up on Wednesday and — during a vigorous debate and committee members’ proposals to re-refer the bill to other committees — the committee chair, Rep. Jon Koznick (R-Lakeville), called the question and the committee voted 8-7 along party lines to refer the bill to the House Floor.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/4jXGJMJ
MSHSL: via Fox 9, VERBATIM: “The United States Department of Education announced an investigation into the Minnesota State High School League (MSHSL) after the state organization previously said it will allow students to participate in sports consistent with their gender identity. This follows President Donald Trump's executive order last week banning transgender athletes from women's and girl's sports. … MSHSL said [last week] that the eligibility of transgender student-athletes is ‘determined by state law, through the Minnesota Human Rights Act and the Minnesota Constitution.’ … The California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) is also part of the same investigation.” READ/WATCH: https://fluence-media.co/3WZhCQ5

OCR’s Chicago and San Francisco regional offices will conduct directed investigations into both organizations.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/40TskIN
MORE: The Minnesota GOP has launched an official petition to “Protect Girls’ Sports in Minnesota.” It asks state officials to ban transgender students from competing in women’s high school sports, accusing Gov.

POT: Axios’ Torey Van Oot reports that Gov. Tim Walz commented on the tribal cannabis compact negotiations yesterday. Speaking to reporters, Walz said the compacts are in “good shape, and I think they’ll be executed in the near future,” adding that these deals are a “first step in a broader market that is going to be big.” Walz dismissed concerns that delays in the state’s licensing process for cannabis businesses will give tribes an unfair head start, saying his administration has to follow the law and “I think we’re still on target” for launching retail licenses in 2025.

DEPORTATIONS: via Sahan Journal, VERBATIM: “Since Donald Trump’s inauguration on Jan. 20, businesses up and down Lake Street in Minneapolis say they’ve felt a chill, with [foot] traffic down as much as 60% in some cases. … Latino and Somali business owners say customers are afraid to shop and employees are afraid to come to work following Trump’s election and promise of massive deportations. … Immigrant workers make up as much as 13% of the labor force in the Twin Cities metro area, [and] many spend their money at immigrant-owned establishments.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/42UohyD

NIH: via Star Tribune, VERBATIM: “University of Minnesota researchers and state lawmakers denounced Wednesday what they say are detrimental cuts to research facilities receiving National Institutes of Health funding announced last week by the Trump Administration. The cuts, announced last Friday, would limit ‘indirect’ support by the National Institutes of Health to academic institutions as well as direct funding of research.

Mohamud Noor [said] ‘We are going to be left behind as a nation, as a state.’” READ: https://fluence-media.co/4gCXTww

At the direction of the Trump-Vance Administration, the NIH has drastically removed information and guidance off of the website for the Office of Research on Women’s Health.” MORRISON: “Women’s health research is already underfunded and under-studied, and cutting access to information only makes it worse.” LETTER: https://fluence-media.co/4aWDcue
OMAR: Rep. Ilhan Omar sat for an interview with Zeteo’s Mehdi Hasan to discuss the dismantling of agencies by DOGE and Elon Musk’s attacks on her. OMAR: “[Musk] wakes up lying.

MNLEG: via KSTP, VERBATIM: “After a three-week boycott of the Minnesota House by Democrats in a power-sharing dispute, lawmakers have to make up for lost time.

MENTAL HEALTH: via WCCO Radio, VERBATIM: “Minnesota lawmakers are digging into what experts are calling a teen mental health crisis. The Senate Education Policy Committee heard from social workers and others on what needs to happen in order for schools to better address students’ mental health challenges. … Sen. Erin Maye Quade (D-Dakota County) says the problem goes beyond what schools can do given the increases in suicidal ideation among young people. … Sen. Jim Abeler (R-Anoka County) says fixing the problem likely needs to come from beyond the school setting.” READ/LISTEN: https://fluence-media.co/4b106kg
SCHOOL MEALS: via KSTP, VERBATIM: “Parents, educators and farmers weighed in on Minnesota’s free school meal program on Wednesday morning in the state senate. More than 150 million meals were served during the program’s first year. That is millions more [per] year than initially thought, with the total cost at about $250 million a year. … Several educators called the program a ‘game changer,’ testifying that they’re seeing fewer students falling asleep in class, fewer visits to the nurse’s office and better performances since the free meals program. … More meals are also being eaten overall, including more fruits and vegetables, which farmers say has helped them stay local.” READ/WATCH: https://fluence-media.co/4aXfT3f
MORE: via WCCO-TV, VERBATIM: “State education leaders said Wednesday that 15% more children [are] getting lunch compared to the previous school year and 40% more [are] eating breakfast. … Daron Korte, assistant commissioner at the Department of Education, told a Minnesota Senate education committee that families are saving $1,000 per student as a result. … Gov.

ABORTION: via House Session Daily, VERBATIM: “Personal and powerful testimony accompanied [the Born Alive Act]. … The House Health Finance and Policy Committee voted 11-10 along party lines Wednesday to send HF24 to the House Floor. The bill would mandate doctors and nurses act to preserve the life and health of infants born alive as the result of a [late-term] abortion. … Rep. Kristin Bahner (DFL-Maple Grove) said bill supporters don’t understand the reality of the families who would be impacted. She emotionally described a scenario in her family of excitedly planning for their baby until they received a diagnosis that the baby would not survive until term. They chose to deliver the baby to let him know he was loved, to look in his eyes, to hold him before he died. Requiring doctors and nurses to provide life-saving care would rob families of those few moments, she said.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/4hXzOl9
RESPONSE: via Rep. Carlie Kotyza-Witthuhn (D-Eden Prairie), STATEMENT: “This bill, just like the GOP amendment proposed with this language last year, is built on the false notion that people wait until late in pregnancy to terminate unwanted pregnancies.

The panel plans to meet Thursday to markup and possibly vote to advance the resolution.

SEX CRIMES: via House Session Daily, VERBATIM: “Fixing an unequal level of punishment prescribed in state law on prostitution is a goal of Rep. Marion Rarick (R-Maple Lake). ‘Believe it or not, our statutes are misaligned in such a terrible way that criminal sexual conduct of first-degree, third-degree, and fourth-degree, is a higher penalty than prostitution of a minor,’ she said. She sponsors HF128 that would make the maximum penalty for prostitution of a minor match the maximum penalty for first-degree criminal sexual conduct. … The House Public Safety Finance and Policy Committee laid the bill over Wednesday for possible inclusion in a committee bill.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/3X0VULv

MPLS: via Axios Twin Cities, VERBATIM: “Emily Koski was the Minneapolis City Council's only regular swing vote last year, dividing her support evenly between Mayor Jacob Frey's allies and his left-wing critics on the 102 closest votes — but most other council members rarely sided with Frey. Three years after Minneapolis residents voted to give more powers to their mayor, a coalition of Frey's critics showed it can muster the votes to block the mayor's agenda and make policy without him. That's according to an Axios analysis of more than 3,000 council actions last year.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/4hPOwue
