Description

Minnesota recently finished a state legislative session for the ages. Democratic control of state government for the first time in a decade, combined with a historic budget surplus, led to the adoption of transformative investments and policies in most every area of government. We dig into new climate policies that especially impact MN cities. Abby interviews co-host and first-term State Representative Larry Kraft about the recently completed session and gets a run down of some of the key new climate policies that were passed into law.ResourcesGov Walz signs bill on 100% Clean Energy by 2040Passed MN Climate, Energy, & Environment budget bill Passed MN Transportation budget billObama praises MN accomplishmentsLarry's speech on the House floor about the Energy & Environment budget bill
