“In 2023 Governor Walz and DFLers delivered the most pro-worker legislative session in more than a generation. Their work in 2024 built on those wins and continued Minnesota’s path towards becoming the best state for working people." https://t.co/vox7rtaeu5 #1u#mnleg#BestState
The House has a rule that we do not meet past midnight, which is important for the safety of our staff and members, who have to drive home. So we’re suspending debate for the night.
We will take up and pass HF 100 tomorrow.

.@melissahortman says the state is taking a step forward after the SCOTUS last year dealt a blow with its reversal of Roe v Wade. "To be where we are today taking up the Protect Reproductive Options Act is an empowering moment for me, for my daughter and for so many others."
Thanks, Gov! 😉 Looking forward to working with you, your Commissioners, @KariDziedzic, @mnhouseDFL & @SenateDFL to put a lot of great bills on your desk!
Thank you @carlieforhouse and @TinaLiebling for your leadership! Minnesotans deserve to have reproductive freedom enshrined in state statute and I'm so grateful for your work to get it done. #mnleg

I’ve had the incredible privilege of working with Speaker @melissahortman over the past few hard years. She is wise, caring, talented, strong, and tenacious. I can’t wait to watch her and the @MinnesotaDFL#mnleg do great things for the people of Minnesota.
I am so proud of our @electmnhousedfl caucus, candidates & staff. We knocked on more doors, raised more money, & fielded stronger candidates than our opponents. And we showed up for each other & our communities all across MN. This is a phenomenal team. #mnleg
