Celebrating Juneteenth as an official state holiday for the first time reminds us that true justice does not come in one action – it’s the ongoing work to deconstruct generations of systemic racism so that every Black Minnesotan can be afforded liberation that is long overdue.
It's official: adult-use cannabis will be legal in Minnesota starting on August 1st!
DFL lawmakers wrote the legalization bill, DFL majorities in the House & Senate that passed it, and a DFL Governor that signed it into law.
The DFL delivered, and we're proud of it! #mnleg
