  • Minnesota Primary: Key Incumbents Sent Packing
    News & Insights Minnesota Primary: Key Incumbents Sent Packing Alert 08.12.2020 By Paul Cassidy In the face of a pandemic, while many Minnesotans went to their assigned polling places yesterday in order to cast ballots for a number of contested inter-party challenges on both the DFL and Republican side of the aisle, hovering over the election is the specter of counting thousands of mail-in absentee ballots in a timely fashion. Due to the pandemic, many polling places have been consolidated and polling officials worry also that they don't have enough election judges and ballot officials. As of Tuesday morning, almost 500,000 voters had cast their ballot votes by mail. Additionally, due to a court order, absentee ballots will be accepted after Election Day, up to the day before the county's canvassing date. Headlining this year's Minnesota primary was a pitched battle between first-term incumbent U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar and her challenger Antone Melton-Meaux, who were fighting for the DFL nomination and the right to go on to the general election. The race captured national attention due to Omar's high-profile progressive views and her membership in the "The Squad." Political analysts believe when all is said and done, this race will far outspend any previous primary totals in the history of Minnesota elections. In the end, Omar coasted to a relatively easy victory, with numbers not far off from her 2018 primary victory. A number of sitting Minnesota legislators faced challenges within their own party and fought to keep their seats in the Minnesota House and Senate.

  • 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.

  • Background on AMSD Friend of Public Education Award
    Background on AMSD Friend of Public Education Award The AMSD Friend of Public Education Award was initiated in 2001. The award was originally established to recognize state legislators who made outstanding contributions in support of public education generally, and AMSD’s legislative priorities in particular. It was also seen as a way to build relationships with state policymakers. The initial plan was to recognize one senator and one house member from each majority caucus. However, the award has evolved over the years. In 2003, in addition to recognizing two legislators, the award was presented to three parents who had made significant contributions to public education. Parent leaders were recognized again in 2006. In 2004, the legislative committee decided to forego recognizing a legislator following a difficult legislative session. Instead, Art Rolnick and John Gunyou were recognized for their research and advocacy on behalf of early childhood education and public education generally. The legislative committee has discussed the idea of recognizing one legislator from each caucus following each legislative session to ensure bi-partisan recognition. After deliberation, the committee decided it was more important to recognize the legislators who made the most significant contributions to public education and to AMSD’s priorities, than to ensure bi-partisan recognition. In 2016, Congressman John Kline and Senator Al Franken were recognized for their respective roles in passing the Every Student Succeeds Act. (ESSA) This marked the first time congressional representatives were recognized. Past Winners of AMSD’s Friend of Public Education Award 2001 Rep. Alice Seagren Sen. Steve Kelley 2002 Rep. Ron Abrams Sen.
