After a quick meeting, legislative leaders and Minnesota Governor Mark Dayton say they’ll meet again next week to try to move forward on the tax cut bill that Dayton “pocket-vetoed”, plus a bonding package that failed in the closing seconds of the legislative session.  Republicans say the governor broke his word, but Speaker Kurt Daudt says

 

The governor says he’ll call the legislature back for a special session only if Republicans meet his list of requirements for bonding projects and other programs. Daudt says Dayton will have to commit to real compromise.

Republican leaders say before their next meeting with the governor they want to have a working group meeting and a hearing on the bonding bill.
