  • 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.

  • Minnesota House of Representatives Minnesota State Senate
    Minnesota Minnesota House of State Representatives Senate Commissioner Laura Bishop Minnesota Pollution Control Agency 520 Lafayette Road North St. Paul, MN 55155-4194 Via email: [email protected] July 29, 2020 Dear Ms. Bishop, We write as members of the House and Senate Climate Action caucuses to request that the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (PCA) deny issuance of the agency's 401 Water Quality Certification for the proposed Enbridge Line 3 Pipeline expansion. The water quality certification would directly counteract many of the initiatives and goals the PCA has adopted. Denying this certification is not only possible, it is the only acceptable outcome for this project. I. The construction and operation of the Line 3 expansion will unacceptably degrade Minnesota’s waters and wetlands. 1. This Line 3 expansion cannot meet Minnesota’s water quality standards. Nearly half of the proposed 340-mile pipeline route through Minnesota will be along a new corridor. The pipeline will make 227 crossings of our state’s most pristine waters and wild rice beds, and impact over 11,000 acres of wetlands. Tar sands oil is unique in comparison to other forms of crude. It sinks in water, making it virtually impossible to entirely remove once leaked. But even if the pipeline never leaks, the very construction and operation of the pipeline will unacceptably degrade Minnesota’s best waters. The Preliminary Anti-Degradation Determination for 401 Certification prepared by the PCA finds that degradation of Minnesota’s high quality waters is “unavoidable”, will create “physical alteration to surface waters,” and will create “functional loss to streams...resulting from open trench crossing methods and permanent impacts to riparian buffers”.

    August 26, 2019 Minnesota State Legislature 75 Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. St. Paul, MN 55155 Adele Gagliardi, Administrator Office of Policy Development and Research U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue NW Room N-5641, Washington, DC 20210 RE: U.S. DOL Industry Recognized Apprenticeship Programs Implementation Proposed Rule - RIN 1205-AB85 Administrator Gagliardi: As Legislators from all across the State of Minnesota, we write to affirm the value of Registered Apprenticeship programs in training the safest, most highly skilled construction workforce for the State of Minnesota, and to express our support for the permanent exemption for the construction industry in the proposed rule: Apprenticeship Programs, Labor Standards for Registration, Amendment of Regulations (1205-AB85). There are currently over 10,000 Registered Apprentices in Minnesota in more than 50 privately funded construction Registered Apprenticeship Programs training to be our State’s future plumbers, electricians, iron workers, crane operators, laborers, carpenters and other highly skilled trades workers. Registered Apprenticeships have been the pathway for more women and minorities to enter the construction trades and Minnesota contractors, business owners, and communities rely on Registered Apprenticeship programs to train our future construction workers to grow our State’s economy and ensure our safety. Unfortunately, if expanded to include the construction industry, the proposed rules would undermine the integrity and drive down the training and labor standards in construction Registered Apprenticeship programs, setting off a race to the bottom in Minnesota’s construction industry. Minnesota is not willing to jeopardize the quality of its construction and the safety and security of its construction workforce.
