An NBC News poll finds that Donald Trump has a 47% approval rating — tied for his highest ever, but below other presidents at the start of a term. Meanwhile, the Democratic Party hit an all-time low at 27% approval, largely due to liberal voters’ perception that Democrats are not fighting Trump’s agenda hard enough.

MN HOUSE: via MPR News, VERBATIM: “The Minnesota House returned Monday to its full complement — and a tie — with [David Gottfried], a newly elected DFL member, getting sworn in to fill a seat that’s been vacant since the legislative session began in January. … At the session’s midpoint, another holdover from a bumpy start also got resolved: a set of recall petitions against 29 DFL legislators were dismissed. Republicans filed the petitions against Democrats who boycotted weeks of the legislative session…[but] Minnesota Supreme Court Chief Justice Natalie Hudson dismissed the petitions Monday, saying that none of them reached the appropriate threshold.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/4iBtm3E
MORE: via Star Tribune, VERBATIM: “A test of the newly established tie between GOP and DFL lawmakers in the Minnesota House came swiftly Monday…the House rejected legislation that would propose a constitutional amendment requiring the state to return tax revenue to Minnesota taxpayers in the event of a projected budget surplus. … The bill, co-sponsored by 31 Republicans, failed by a 67-67 vote along party lines. Legislation needs 68 votes to pass.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/4iTudwp

Behind them, the flags of tribal nations stood next to the U.S. and Minnesota flags — a symbol of the work tribal and state governments have done together over the past several years.
Several of the tribal leaders around the dais had been elected this past year.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/3FC9YVX

SPENDING: via a Senate GOP press release, VERBATIM: “Senate Republicans held a press conference today to highlight at least $600 million in wasteful or unnecessary spending identified in the state budget. … Republicans pointed to several key areas where spending reductions could immediately save taxpayers money, beginning with transportation – especially commuter and light rail projects that would cut almost $250 million in waste. The [next] proposal was to undo an earmark of $21 million to fund a public option health care plan that has yet to be passed. … Next on the list [were] benefits that provide undocumented non-citizens with free health care, college, and even some tax credits, to the tune of up to $378 million.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/42dxjpC WATCH: https://fluence-media.co/4iRWAew
RESPONSE: via a Senate Majority Leader Erin Murphy statement, MURPHY: “It is increasingly clear that Republicans see programs that help people as ‘waste’ — economic development, labor rights, support for farmers, Medicaid and Social Security for children and seniors. … The DFL will fight for good-paying jobs, families and seniors, and the education and healthcare Minnesotans count on.”
SIGNED: via Office of the Governor, VERBATIM: “Governor Tim Walz today signed a bill that amends financial reporting requirements for grain buyers.

The party will elect its new chair on Saturday, March 29. CARLBOM: “Democrats need to acknowledge that voters have begun to think about us as people who tell them what to think, rather than being curious about what they’re facing. We have to demonstrate that that curiosity means that we want to understand, ultimately, how we can be partners with voters and improve the lives of Minnesotans.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/4bWhJC2

HOUSING: via House Session Daily, VERBATIM: “Two Twin Cities churches have opened tiny homes on their properties to house chronically homeless residents since the Legislature passed a law allowing it in 2023.

Kristin Robbins (R-Maple Grove) sponsors HF1051 to add more guardrails to the existing law. … The bill would, in part, allow cities to regulate the units similar to a rental residence. … The House Elections Finance and Government Operations Committee laid the bill over Monday, as amended, for possible omnibus bill inclusion.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/3DBAFth
IMMIGRATION: via Sahan Journal, VERBATIM: “Amid a climate of anti-immigration rhetoric and policies from the White House, GOP lawmakers in the Minnesota Legislature are proposing legislation that would bar undocumented residents from accessing state-funded programs like MinnesotaCare. House File 10, authored by Rep. Isaac Schultz, R-Elmdale Township, would prohibit undocumented Minnesotans from accessing any state program funded by taxpayers that require proof of residency. … Though activists and lawmakers of color recognize that the legislation has a low chance of passing, they say it amplifies anti-immigrant sentiment [and] could have a chilling effect on these communities’ willingness to access services.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/3DNsHx4
OMAR: via Star Tribune, VERBATIM: “[Rep. Ilhan] Omar is no stranger to criticism. She and [Donald] Trump have sparred publicly since his first presidency. The president has called her an ‘America-hating socialist’ and led a campaign rally where supporters chanted ‘send her back.’ … But Democrats worry the latest attacks against Omar bring an intensified cause for concern as Trump’s second presidency unfolds with Republicans currently in control of the Congress as well. … Omar said in an interview [that] much of the discussion she has with her colleagues now is about ‘How are you going to protect yourself?’ … Omar has also been sharply criticized by fellow Minnesotan Rep. Tom Emmer, [but] Omar said things with Emmer weren’t always that way. When she first arrived in Congress in 2019, they had a ‘perfectly fine’ relationship, she said.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/3DJsVW7

When some of her constituents pushed back with sign rallies and meetings of their own, Fischbach, in a radio interview, called such activities ‘garbage,’ [which] further inflamed relations.” READ: https://fluence-media.co/4hKN7EJ

DISABILITIES: via Star Tribune, VERBATIM: “Nearly 14,000 Minnesotans with disabilities…received services last year through [state] programs that help people find jobs. … But as demand for the services is growing, Minnesota is cutting back.

Another suggests judges in Minnesota's Third Judicial District, which covers much of southeastern Minnesota, were encouraging Zoom requests for clients at risk.

Thompson said the video incorrectly implies Omar vouches for Said. … A spokesperson for Omar [said] ‘The attempt to utilize footage of the Congresswoman handing out food as court evidence is blatantly wrong.
