The 2019 Minnesota legislative session kicks off Tuesday and Governor-elect Tim Walz is sworn in today. Carleton College political expert Steven Schier says Walz faces a couple key challenges with a divided legislature…
Democrats have the majority in the House and Republicans hold a slight majority in the Senate. Schier says the challenge for Walz will be to get at least a Republican or two on the Senate side to get on board with his agenda to move legislation forward.
