We’re starting the song lyrics on the Senate floor era of the session, so Bad Medicine is one song chosen by Sen. Torey Westrom yesterday, but HCMC has clergy outside today to rally suggesting they are Living on a Prayer. Send me your best Session clips of the floor sessions.
The bill that would create the Office of Inspector General will be on the House floor today. The bill is pre-negotiated between the House and Senate authors, making it likely to head to Gov. Tim Walz for a signature.
Via statement from Sen. Heather Gustafson, VERBATIM: ““I am pleased to see further cooperation and movement on this important legislation,” said Senator Gustafson. “The Senate passed my bill overwhelmingly because of the honest bipartisan work that went into it. This isn’t the end-all-be-all of fraud prevention, but our proposal is the most significant, meaningful step towards our shared goal of protecting state tax dollars to date. I commend the House authors for their work, I and look forward to continued progress in the future.”
When it comes to the X banter between the FBI’s Kash Patel and Gov. Tim Walz – “…the truth is, baby, you’re all that I need.”
When BCA agents are on site for the raids, would confirm that the state had some role in the investigation – even if sentiment “Please don’t make me make the same mistakes but it’s too late”
GAS PRICES: Via Bring Me The News, a deeper look at the latest spike in gas prices, with data that shows a statewide average above $4/gallon could happen as soon as today. VERBATIM: “As of Wednesday, the statewide average for a gallon of regular gas is $3.93, a 13-cent jump in 24 hours, almost 30 cents more than a week ago, and just over 50 cents more than a month ago. … The price per gallon has been creeping closer to, or has already exceeded, $4 in many parts of Minnesota, particularly in the southern half of the state. The average in the Twin Cities is $3.98 on Wednesday, up from $3.84 on Tuesday. The Rochester area saw an even bigger jump in a day, rising from $3.84 on Tuesday to $4.02 on Wednesday.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/4dfESBD
ENERGY: The 2026 Minnesota Energy Factsheet will be released today, developed by Clean Energy Economy Minnesota and the Business Council for Sustainable Energy. EXCERPT: “For the sixth consecutive year, zero‑carbon sources (renewables and nuclear) supplied a majority of Minnesota’s electricity. In 2025, these resources accounted for 55% of total generation, compared with a national average of 43%. … Imported electricity fell to 7% of total use in 2025, down from 9% in 2024, demonstrating stronger in-state energy production and reliability. … Minnesota ranked No. 11 nationally and remained the top‑ranked state in the Midwest for overall energy efficiency.” WEBSITE: https://fluence-media.co/4dfzxKE
SENATE RACE: David Hann has suspended his campaign for U.S. Senate in Minnesota.
CD2: Via The Intercept, a look at why some activists are accusing Matt Little, DFL candidate in CD2, of using anti-ICE activism for political gain. VERBATIM: “The Intercept spoke with nearly a dozen people involved in ICE rapid response networks in and around the Minneapolis suburbs, including in leadership positions, several of whom felt that Little was ‘cosplaying’ as an observer and overstating his activism for political clout. Others speculated that the outrage was manufactured to ruin his chances at the nomination. … Little says that he’s ‘only posted a small margin’ of the work he’s done on ICE and seemed confused by accusations that he was chasing clout.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/3QD8Si9
SOCIAL MEDIA: via MPR News, VERBATIM: “A tech industry group filed a lawsuit Wednesday challenging a Minnesota law that requires social media companies to start showing users health warning labels on their sites. … NetChoice — an industry group representing social media and tech companies like Amazon, Google and Meta — is suing Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison and Minnesota Department of Health Commissioner Brooke Cunningham in federal court. NetChoice argues in the complaint filed Wednesday that part of the law violates the First Amendment.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/4dgyTfO

Fluence Media introduces more — Insider Analysis & Insight from TheDailyAgenda.com
IN THE HOPPER
IT SYSTEMS: via MinnPost, VERBATIM: “Minnesota has its counties operate eligibility and benefits for [social] programs, and the technology these counties use is [old] and may lead to social services fraud. But as the Legislature lurches into its final weeks of session, it is unclear how (or if) lawmakers will agree upon financing an issue whose solution necessitates savvy about both computers and the social safety net. … Gov. Tim Walz has vowed to veto bills that dramatically raise state spending, but even the governor has proposed spending $46 million over the next three years to address ‘legacy IT systems.’” READ: https://fluence-media.co/4w5yoNm
BONDING: via MPR, VERBATIM: “Senate Democrats are urging passage of a $1.4 billion capital investment bill to fund state and local community projects. [However], legislative leaders and the governor continue meeting to discuss a target for the proposal. … Senate Majority Leader Erin Murphy, DFL-St. Paul, said following some of the adverse economic impacts of the federal immigration enforcement surge in the state, lawmakers should pass a significant bonding bill to bring additional construction jobs to Minnesota. … In his State of the State address, [Gov. Tim] Walz floated a smaller capital investment target: $907 million.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/4de87Vn
PRESCRIPTION DRUG PRICES CONTINUE TO SOAR: While Minnesota’s safety net hospitals navigate bleak financial outlooks, drug manufacturers continue to raise drug prices at rates that far outpace inflation, rising 23% in the last year alone. By strengthening the 340B drug pricing program, local hospitals can weather these soaring prices and continue to deliver the care and treatments that Minnesotans need. MNLEG REPORT: https://fluence-media.co/48xEXhB (SPONSORED: Essentia Health)
GUNS/SCHOOLS: via KSTP, VERBATIM: “The Senate Finance Committee passed a bill with several measures aimed at guns and school safety. It goes next to the Senate floor. The bill includes a ban on the sale of assault weapons and large-capacity magazines, along with bans on ghost guns and binary triggers. It also regulates safe gun storage and designates $20 million for school safety and $14.7 million for mental health programs.” READ/WATCH: https://fluence-media.co/4w2vadj
WEALTH TAX: via House Session Daily, VERBATIM: “HF4845, a bill sponsored by Rep. Athena Hollins (DFL-St. Paul), would create a new fifth income tax tier, an idea that seems to surface annually. Hollins’ bill would establish the tier at a rate of 10.85%, applying it to Minnesota taxable income in excess of $1 million for married joint returns. … What’s different about this year’s model is the recipient of the revenue from the tax: It would increase local government aid (LGA) and county program aid (CPA) by $155.5 million each annually. The bill was laid over for possible omnibus bill inclusion.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/4uidLvq
NOTE: Start a list of issues that would cause major angst in another DFL trifecta further slowing the growth of Minnesota’s economy.
DAMAGE: via MPR, VERBATIM: “Two bills to help people if their home is damaged by police passed the Minnesota Senate yesterday with bipartisan support. … One bill says homeowners insurance can’t exclude damage from police if the homeowner is an innocent third party. Another bill says police must disclose chemical irritants used inside buildings. Both bills passed chamber floor votes and are headed to the governor.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/4de87Vn

HEALTH CARE
HCMC: via House Session Daily, VERBATIM: “The House Health Finance and Policy Committee [heard] three potential solutions for HCMC, but no action was taken. … HF4841, sponsored by Rep. Esther Agbaje (DFL-Mpls), would increase a 2007 Hennepin County sales tax [from] 0.15% to 1%. … HF4892, sponsored by Rep. John Huot (DFL-Rosemount), would temporarily use the state’s General Fund surplus to help cushion HCMC. … Rep. Danny Nadeau (R-Rogers) presented a yet-to-be-numbered bill that would dedicate $250 million from the General Fund each year to go to HCMC and North Memorial Hospital.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/492sCC0
MORE: via KARE 11, VERBATIM: “Lawmakers in the Minnesota Senate have approved a measure to help HCMC. … The bill that passed would provide HCMC $50 million this year and $100 million next year. It’s considered a temporary solution rather than a long-term fix. It passed in the Senate on party lines.” READ/WATCH: https://fluence-media.co/4tIZLLi
MEDICAID: via House Session Daily, VERBATIM: “A bill to bring the state into alignment with the Medicaid cuts, changes and restrictions included in HR1, the ‘One Big Beautiful Bill,’ awaits action by the full House. Included in the omnibus health finance bill, the language would primarily bring the state into alignment with the federal law. As amended, HF4466 was approved 15-13 by the House Ways and Means Committee Wednesday, with Rep. Robert Bierman (DFL-Apple Valley) reluctantly crossing party lines to offer support.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/4cUur53
INSURANCE: via Rochester Post Bulletin, VERBATIM: “A Rochester lawmaker aims to reinforce a 2010 Minnesota law that requires health insurance to cover home care nursing services for people — often children — with complex medical needs. … Sen. Liz Boldon, DFL-Rochester, [said] ‘That is the law. They should be doing it.’ … Boldon’s bill, if made law, would bar health plans from limiting the quantity of covered home care nursing services. In the Minnesota Senate, the bill advanced and is now part of the chamber’s commerce omnibus bill. However, its House companion, HF 4347, failed to pass out of committee.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/4t20CFJ
DISPARITY: via MPR News, VERBATIM: “A new analysis of health inequities shows that racial and ethnic disparities are widespread and persist in all 50 states, including Minnesota. … Minnesota is one of the top states for overall healthcare system performance, surpassing 38 other states, according to the report. White people in the state experience the best healthcare outcomes, scoring in the 91st percentile among all population groups nationwide. In contrast, American Indian and Alaska Native people face the poorest healthcare outcomes in the state, scoring only in the 13th percentile. Additionally, when compared to other states, Minnesota’s healthcare system performs below average for Black residents.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/3QTVVR0

CLEAN | RELIABLE | AFFORDABLE: via Xcel Energy, VERBATIM: “We’re powering the Upper Midwest with clean, reliable, and affordable nuclear energy. For more than 50 years, our Prairie Island Nuclear Plant, located near Red Wing, MN, has been a workhorse of reliable, carbon-free energy. With two pressurized water reactors producing about 1,100 megawatts, Prairie Island generates enough electricity to power 1.5 million homes across the Upper Midwest. Unlike sources that depend on weather, nuclear energy delivers 24/7 reliability — providing the power we need today while protecting the environment for tomorrow.” LEARN MORE: https://fluence-media.co/4oCHdK9 (SPONSORED: Xcel Energy)
FRAUD
ANTI-FRAUD: via Axios Twin Cities, VERBATIM: “A slate of anti-fraud proposals remain in legislative limbo at the narrowly divided Capitol, with less than three weeks until the adjournment deadline. One bill to create an independent inspector general [had] another House hearing [yesterday]. Another closely watched proposal that would give agencies more power to cut payments to suspected fraudsters sailed through the tied House but is awaiting action in the DFL-majority Senate.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/3QIoP6C
RAIDS: Via FOX 9, more details on the discrepancies over how much state and local officers contributed to Tuesday’s federal anti-fraud raids. VERBATIM: “Vice President JD Vance, who leads the administration’s anti-fraud task force, [said] ‘We really did not get much help at all from the governor’s office. Where we actually did get help was from state and local law enforcement officers who we assigned to the task force because the state government wasn’t doing anything.’ … The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension told FOX 9: ‘We’ve been working on the investigations related to yesterday’s warrants with FBI, HSI and other federal partners for months.’” READ/WATCH: https://fluence-media.co/4264wm4
MORE: via KSTP, VERBATIM: “The federal raids at child care and autism centers in the Twin Cities, part of a sweeping investigation into alleged fraud in safety-net programs, are renewing questions about individuals who own or operate multiple businesses that bill Medicaid. Public records show that some of the companies under investigation are connected through shared ownership.” READ/WATCH: https://fluence-media.co/3OQGSHi
MORE: via KARE 11’s Lou Raguse, VERBATIM: “After the Shakopee Day Care was raided on Tuesday, several kids entered. … Day care fraud most often involves overbilling, not empty day cares. The process involves comparing the attendance rosters on the billing to how many kids are there.” TWEET: https://fluence-media.co/42D7FtL
DHS: via KSTP, VERBATIM: “A former state fraud investigator told lawmakers a child care fraud unit was undermined before it was shut down, and he has ‘no doubt’ that oversight could have prevented some of today’s fraud concerns. … Jay Swanson, a former criminal investigator for CCAP under the Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS), testified Tuesday that the unit began with strong agency support in 2014, [but] the unit was ‘harassed and bullied’ [by DHS] starting in 2017 and lost authority over which cases to prioritize.” READ/WATCH: https://fluence-media.co/48zaIXv
REJECT 340B EXPANSION: A new Minnesota Department of Health report shows hospitals made at least $1 billion dollars from a federal drug discount program known as 340B. The program should help patients, but experts say there is little accountability for where the money goes. The report was delayed and only recently released, showing the program isn’t working as intended. But Minnesota politicians are fast tracking a bill to expand the 340B program anyway.

WHIPPLE: via USAO-MN advisory, VERBATIM: “United States Attorney Daniel N. Rosen today announced the unsealing of a federal grand jury indictment charging Christopher Ostroushko, Deyanna Ostroushko, and Paige Ostroushko with assaulting a journalist while she was reporting on an anti-ICE protest on federal property in St. Paul Minnesota on April 11, 2026.

TERRORISM: via Sen. Tina Smith advisory, VERBATIM: “U.S. Senators Tina Smith [and others] introduced the bipartisan Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2026, which is essential to economic security by safeguarding the availability of terrorism risk coverage. … Given that the current threat landscape remains elevated, allowing a similar lapse in terrorism coverage would expose policy holders to unnecessary financial risk and uncertainty.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/4n1BIVA
PRIVACY: via Rep. Tom Emmer advisory, VERBATIM: “House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-Minn.) released the following statement after the U.S. House of Representatives successfully advanced his legislation, HR. 1919, the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act, to the U.S. Senate. The bill, which was first passed by the House in July 2025, has now been attached to the Foreign Intelligence Accountability Act and awaits consideration in the Senate.” EMMER: “We must never allow this weaponized surveillance tool to be adopted here.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/3QIse5o
ICE: via Rep. Ilhan Omar advisory, VERBATIM: “Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (D-MN) spoke on the House Floor in opposition to the inclusion of $70 billion in funding for ICE and Border Patrol in Republicans’ budget resolution.” OMAR: “This effort is even more incomprehensible considering it comes after [Donald] Trump and Congressional Republicans already created an 85 billion dollars slush fund for ICE during the last budget reconciliation process. … We cannot send this rogue and unaccountable agency another cent.” READ/WATCH: https://fluence-media.co/4cUoRQ9
HABITAT RESTORATION: Flint Hills Resources has earned Tandem Global WHC Gold Certification for habitat restoration at its Cottage Grove fuel terminal. The certification comes after two years of work in partnership with Friends of the Mississippi River to implement a restoration and monitoring plan to re-establish the 6.5-acre site’s natural prairie and savannah. Flint Hills has held gold certification for its work done with community partners over the past 25 years to restore more than 200 acres of the Pine Bend Bluffs, a critical natural area along the Mississippi River that is adjacent to Flint Hills Resources Pine Bend refinery.

It’s currently set to expire in 2042. … St. Paul also plans to ask the Legislature for $200 million for the project. It’s not clear whether there’s support to advance the proposals.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/4de87Vn
340B HOSPITAL MARKUPS HURT PATIENTS: Minnesota’s latest 340B report shows covered entities generated $1.34 billion in profit in 2024, including an estimated $261 million from Medicaid prescriptions. Independent research finds the program raises costs for patients, taxpayers, and employers statewide. Minnesota should sunset the 340B mandate, and Congress should fix the federal 340B program so it actually helps patients. LEARN MORE: https://fluence-media.co/3OLZOGG (SPONSORED: PhRMA)
OAKDALE: via Pioneer Press, VERBATIM: “Oakdale voters approved a half-percent local sales tax in 2022 to bankroll a new public works building and improvements to the city’s police department and Oakdale City Hall.
