My plan to expand economic opportunity will build on Minnesota’s success by putting people at the center of the blueprint. Our Budget to Move Minnesota Forward invests in the students, workers, communities, and small businesses that made our economy strong in the first place.

Since 2016, I've had conversations with ~5000 design leaders at 200+ dinners and ~100 virtual events, and lots of slack threads. I also helped drive some industry benchmarking reports.

I finally synthesized all the notes.

This just made my morning. I'm glad that I'm not the only one who dissects and studies the tendencies of my #DnD dice.

For those screaming that we “need” to do a beer bat, 2019 called and wants it’s recognition. We couldn’t give them away that year. Once again, we were ahead of our time. But now you see some other team get credit for it and you beg us to have them. They will be available soon.

Minnesota currently ranks first in the nation in getting out our vaccines – I’m so proud of the work that’s been done to build the infrastructure to quickly get shots into arms. When it’s your turn, take the shot. #RollUpYourSleevesMN
