  • MACTE Weekly Legislative Update, 2.16.20 Prepared by Cyndy Crist, MACTE Legislative and Policy Liaison 2020 Session Underway. Th
    MACTE Weekly Legislative Update, 2.16.20 Prepared by Cyndy Crist, MACTE Legislative and Policy Liaison 2020 Session Underway. The Minnesota Legislature opened its 2020 session on Tuesday, February 11. As in all even-numbered years, this shorter session will focus on a bonding bill as well as other policy and funding issues it may choose to address. It seems likely that many of the policy issues that were included in omnibus bills last year but ultimately not enacted because of the deep divisions between the House, Senate, and Governor will be brought up again this year. This could include many of the preparation and licensure issues of interest to us in 2019, including changes in the tiered licensure structure and measures to increase the diversity of teachers in our state. In addition, the predicted budget surplus will be much on the minds of legislators as they decide whether to use or save surplus dollars and/or cut planned spending to reflect the additional funding. The committee structure from 2019 remains unchanged, although two new legislators have now been sworn in. In House District 60A, DFLer Sydney Jordan won a special election to fill the seat left vacant by the death of Diane Loeffler. House District 30A will now be represented by Republican Paul Novotny who was elected to fill the seat left vacant by the resignation of Nick Zerwas. Since the new members are of the same party as the incumbents they are replacing, there is no change in the balance between the two parties in the House. It is also worth noting that all members of the House and Senate are up for election this year, and to date, approximately 14 current members have announced that they will not be seeking re-election.

  • – 2015 – MINNESOTA LEGISLATIVE SCORECARD CLEAN WATER ACTION’S 2015 Minnesota Legislative Scorecard
    – 2015 – MINNESOTA LEGISLATIVE SCORECARD CLEAN WATER ACTION’S 2015 Minnesota Legislative Scorecard Clean Water Action’s goal is to protect and restore our lakes, rivers and streams now and for future generations. We work to protect Minnesota’s health and water by making systemic change. We educate the public, develop grassroots citizen leaders and mobilize our members to get involved in policy decisions. This is a comprehensive scorecard for the 2015 legislative session and the special session that was held in June. Clean Water Action’s Legislative Scorecard provides a permanent record that scores every Minnesota state legislator on their votes that affect the issues of clean, renewable energy, water quality, and toxics in our environment. These were the primary areas of focus for Clean Water Action this year. To find out who your legislators are, visit http://www.gis.leg.mn/OpenLayers/districts/ HOW LEGISLATORS WERE SCORED: The Clean Water Action Legislative Scorecard provides objective, factual information about the environmental + = A pro-environment vote voting records of members of the Minnesota Legislature. – = An anti-environment vote The votes included in this scorecard took place during the 2015 legislative session and focus heavily, although not NA = The legislator did not vote exclusively, on votes that would seriously affect the issues of clean, renewable energy, water quality, and toxics in our environment. The votes that are included are recorded votes in which the entire body of either the Senate or House, had the opportunity to participate. Senate legislators were scored on 5 votes on important environmental issues acted on in 2015, with House legislators being scored on 7.

  • Edallies Legislative Scorecard Educational Excellence & Equity at the Capitol
    EdAllies Legislative Scorecard Educational Excellence & Equity at the Capitol 2017–2018 TABLE OF CONTENTS EdAllies Legislative Scorecard Educational Excellence and Equity at the Capitol 2017-2018 Introduction 2 What’s in the Scorecard 3 Issues Diverse & Effective Educators 4 School Discipline 11 Data & Transparency 14 Welcoming & Accessible Schools 18 Parent Choice 22 Final Votes: The Omnibus Bills 26 Vote Tables House 29 Senate 40 EdAllies Legislative Scorecard 2017–2018 1 INTRODUCTION Dear partners, At EdAllies, we work to ensure that every young Minnesotan has access to a rigorous and engaging education—work we simply cannot do without empowered, informed advocates. Yet, too often, Minnesota’s confusing policymaking process makes it hard to understand what’s happening with education policy change at the Capitol. Given our state’s urgent need to address opportunity and achievement gaps, this is unacceptable. To accomplish more for Minnesota students, we need greater transparency around policy progress and setbacks. We made this legislative scorecard to help you understand education efforts over the last two years, also known as the legislative biennium. We recap key policies that legislators introduced, our position, and, when possible, the votes. Though our policymakers didn’t make as much progress for Minnesota students as we hoped during the 90th biennium, they made some notable changes. For example, our legislators reached across the aisle to: • open Minnesota’s doors to great out-of-state and alternatively prepared educators; • support new programs to recruit and retain teachers of color; • advance trailblazing legislation to disaggregate student achievement data, and more. Of course, there’s much more work to do to set up all Minnesota students for success.

    Minnesota legislative scorecard Measuring support for education & student achievement in the 88th Legislature A MINNCAN REPORT Minnesota legislative scorecard Measuring support for education & student achievement in the 88th Legislature This report was published in September MinnCAN: The Minnesota Campaign 2014 by MinnCAN: The Minnesota Campaign for Achievement Now for Achievement Now www.minncan.org To order copies of this report please contact Design & Layout MinnCAN: [email protected] house9design.ca A MINNCAN REPORT Table of contents Intro: Letter from Daniel Sellers 4 Education champions 6 Senate scorecard 7 House scorecard 13 Important policies 22 Disclamer This scorecard is for informational purposes only. When judging the qualifications of any candidate or incumbent, voters should consider matters such as performance on committees, constituent service, and positions on all matters in addition to those reflected on the scorecard. Introduction Dear friends, I am thrilled to release MinnCAN’s first legislative scorecard! In 2013 and 2014, during the 88th Legislature, we worked to find changing-the- ­­ odds public schools, share their stories at the Capitol and help their successes inform policy that will improve public schools across Minnesota. This scorecard showcases the tremendous progress we made to pass and implement such policies and to ensure that all kids have access to a great public school. During the 88th Legislature, our bipartisan allies: • invested nearly $45 million to help low-income 3- and 4-year-olds access quality pre-K • strengthened public charter school accountability • implemented well-rounded educator evaluations • made schools safer • allowed the state to recruit and retain the best teachers and leaders • increased college access, and more.
