I am pleased for State Patrol the opportunity to give you a better understanding of these groups and their Office of Communications functions. Office of Justice Programs Your letter listed twelve groups advising DPS: Capitol Area Security Advisory Committee; Community-Oriented Police Grant Program Committee; Criminal Justice Office of Pipeline Safety Information Systems Advisory Task Force; Financial Crimes Advisory Board; Financial Office of Crimes Task Force; Fire Protection Systems Advisory Council; Fire Service Advisory Traffic Safety Committee; Forensic Laboratory Advisory Board; Juvenile Justice Advisory State Fire Committee; Statewide Radio Board advisory groups; Violent Crime Coordinating Marshal Council; and Weed and Seed Grant Program Committee. Of these twelve groups, two (the Community-Oriented Police Grant Program Committee and the Weed and Seed Grant Program Committee) were legally sunsetted on June 30, 2009, but had effectively terminated years before that. Neither of these groups was a true advisory council, but could be better described as delineated lists of stakeholders who were tasked with reviewing grant applications for the distribution of funds allocated to Minnesota under specific federal programs.

    – 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.

    STATE OF MINNESOTA Office of Governor Mark Dayton 130 State Capitol + 75 Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard • Saint Paul, MN 55155 May 13,2013 The Honorable Paul Thissen Speaker of the House Room 463, State Office Building 100 Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd. St. Paul, Minnesota 55155 Dear Mr. Speaker: Last year, I vetoed legislation related to this subject. I did so, based primarily on the strong objections expressed by the Attorney General. By Minnesota Statute, section 8.32, subdivision 2(c), the Attorney General is charged with the responsibility to "make recommendations to the governor and the legislature for statutory needs that exist in adequately protecting the consumer." T have the utmost respect for Attorney General Swanson and have considered carefully her continuing opposition to this legislation. I have also considered the analysis that this bill marks a significant improvement in consumer protections over current Minnesota law. Furthermore, it passed both legislative bodies, which I also respect, with overwhelming bi-partisan support 55 to 8 in the Senate and 126 to 7 in the House. While I agree with the Attorney General that it would be preferable to require direct insurance company review of each policy, members of both bodies, whom I respect highly, are convinced that Minnesotans. especially our senior citizens, will be well-protected by the additional review procedures contained in this bill. Therefore, I have decided that T do not wish to sign this bill into law, with the understanding that it will become Jaw without my signature. Accordingly, r will deposit, without signature, in the Office of the Secretary of State, Chapter 54, H.F.

    Alison Key: I also want to not stutter saying my name like I did last episode. Mark Thomson: This is going to be great. Mark Thomson: Welcome to The ComMN Law, the best and only podcast about the Minnesota Supreme Court. My name is Mark Thomson, former clerk for Justices Lillehaug and McKeig. Alison Key: And my name is Alison, former clerk for Justices Stras and Hudson. Mark Thomson: We've got a case about retroactivity in criminal law today, but before we do that, let's start with legal news. Alison Key: First piece of legal news that we should mention is related to our podcast, actually, and we want to make sure our listeners know that now you can receive free CLE credit for listening to all of our episodes, so make sure that you go to our episodes page on our website, thecommnlaw.com, to get those CLE codes and make sure you get credit for listening to our episodes. Mark Thomson: We feel perhaps as strongly about free CLE credits as any other issue in the law. Alison Key: That is exactly right. And related to CLEs, moving into maybe a actual piece of legal news, is this current ruling from the Minnesota State Board of Continuing Legal Education that for the first time in its history, that we know of, actually revoked CLE credit. Now this was not for our podcast. This was for a different program. Mark Thomson: Would never happen to us. So this was a lecture that was given at the St Paul Seminary in December 2017 titled, "Understanding and Responding to the Transgender Moment in Saint Paul." It was posted on YouTube later and the presenter applied for CLE credit beforehand and received credit.

  • 2018-19 Annual Report
    SHAPING THE 2018 ANNUAL REPORT 2019 FROM OUR BOARD CHAIR ooking back over this year, we feel enormous pride in what Global Minnesota has accomplished. Together, we’ve created the momentum needed to truly shape our future L and the future of our great state. Mid-year, we embarked on a leadership transition as President Carol Engebretson Byrne stepped down after 22 years of remarkable service. Former Minnesota Secretary of State Mark Ritchie stepped into the role of president, bringing his lifelong commitment to people-to-people diplomacy and the visionary leadership needed to mobilize broad public engagement in global affairs. Global Minnesota’s exceptional attributes - strong leadership, talented staff, mission-driven programs, vital partnerships, and passionately committed members remain the driving forces behind our success. And these central pillars will continue to serve as a firm foundation for charting the years ahead. Guided by a new five-year plan, we will grow this global community, address the most important international topics, promote respect for and deeper understanding of the many cultures that call Minnesota home, and continue to collaborate with our amazing Ertugrul Tuzcu partners – global, national, and local. As always, we are grounded by our mission and values, which guide our day-to-day work of connecting Minnesotans to the world and the world to Minnesota. That’s what got us here, and that’s what will take us forward as we together make our global future. Ertugrul Tuzcu Mark Ritchie Board Chair In 2018-19, former Global Minnesota President, Carol Engebretson Byrne, was recognized for her leadership with several prestigious local and national awards.
