2020 Final Public Subsidy Payments
CAMPAIGN FINANCE AND PUBLIC DISCLOSURE BOARD RELEASES FINAL PUBLIC SUBSIDY PAYMENT AMOUNTS FOR 2020 ELECTION During 2020 the Campaign Finance and Public Disclosure Board distributed $2,131,887 in public subsidy payments to 349 candidates running for state senate or state representative. The 349 candidates who received a public subsidy payment represent 78% of the 449 legislative candidates who were on the general election ballot. A list of qualifying candidates and the payments they received is attached. Of the 504 candidates who filed for state legislative office this year, 401 (79.3%) signed voluntary agreements to abide by spending limits and other conditions required to be eligible for public subsidy payments for their campaigns. To qualify for public subsidy a candidate must: • be opposed at either the primary or general election, • appear on the general election ballot, • sign and file a public subsidy agreement with the Board to abide by applicable campaign expenditure limits, and • raise a specified amount in contributions from individuals eligible to vote in Minnesota counting only the first $50 from each donor. Money for the public subsidy program comes from the state general fund. A portion of public subsidy money is allocated to specific parties and districts based on taxpayer checkoffs on income and property tax returns. By office and party, the total public subsidy payments totaled: DFL RPM State Senate $670,054 $393,772 House of Representatives $663,589 $404,471 Total $1,333,643 $798,243 DFL = Democratic Farmer Labor RPM = Republican Party of Minnesota Note: No other major or minor party candidates qualified for a public subsidy payment in 2020.

Please Contact Legislators to Support NAZ Families Sample Email/Phone
Please Contact Legislators to Support NAZ Families Dear NAZ Supporters, We are asking you to contact state legislators today and tomorrow to encourage them to support House File 3172—a bill to bolster the groundbreaking work at the Northside Achievement Zone (NAZ). The bill is currently being worked on by a conference committee of House and Senate members. This bill will help NAZ reach our goal of enrolling 3,000 North Minneapolis children on a “cradle to career” path to college. Strong early evidence shows that the NAZ approach is working! Sample language is provided below, as well as a list of contact information. We are grateful for your help! Sample Email/Phone Language I’m asking for your support for House File 3172, which provides $1.1 million for the Northside Achievement Zone’s (NAZ) work to permanently close the achievement gap and end poverty in North Minneapolis. This funding will increase the number of low-income North Minneapolis families who can enroll in NAZ and become leaders in community transformation that will bolster an educated workforce for our entire state. The NAZ approach is already showing early results in North Minneapolis - arguably one of the most distressed areas in our state: • Young NAZ scholars are more likely to be ready for kindergarten. • NAZ scholars are jumping ahead substantially in reading and math through after school and summer programs. • NAZ reduced housing instability for 1/3 of enrolled families. With your support, NAZ can serve as an incubator for best practices for the entire state. Please support the full $1.1M proposal.

Legislative Update
LEGISLATIVE UPDATE Welcome to the first Child Care Aware Legislative Update of the 2021 legislative session. This narrative update, along with our Bill Tracker, will be posted each Tuesday (reflecting activity through the previous Friday) on the Child Care Aware of Minnesota website. Each week we will provide a brief overview of bills that have been introduced, action that has been taken at the committee level or on the floor, and any other pertinent news related to early care and education and school-age care issues. If you have additions to recommend to the bill tracker, please contact Ann McCully. OVERVIEW The Legislature convened on Tuesday, January 5 and is off to a quick start. There is no question that the state’s response to the impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic is the primary issue facing legislators as they begin this session. This also a budget year to set the state’s budget for July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2023, and while the economic picture has improved since the initial budget forecast last spring, there is still a projected budget deficit in the coming years, leading to some tough decisions ahead. More information about the budget projections can be found on the State Office of Management and Budget website. COMMITTEE STRUCTURE A new, two-year legislative session brings new members, new committees, and new committee assignments. While early care and education issues may show up in many places during the process, below are a few of the key committees that we will be watching. We encourage you to follow them as well! To find out about committee upcoming committee hearings and topics, visit the Minnesota State Legislature combined calendar page.

These were the primary areas of focus for Clean Water Action this year.
