    Session Summary with Special Session Prepared by MINNESOTA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES PUBLIC INFORMATION OFFICE 175 STATE OFFICE BUILDING 100 CONSTITUTION AVENUE ST. PAUL, MINNESOTA 55155-1298 (651) 296-2146 Highlights Introduction The 1998 Minnesota Legislature convened on Jan. 20, 1998, and lawmakers adjourned sine die late in the evening April 9, 1998. Lawmakers were in session for 46 legislative days, accumulating a total of 109 legislative days during the biennium. As specified by the Minnesota Constitution, the Legislature may meet for up to 120 legislative days during a two-year period. (A legislative day is counted when a quorum of either the House or Senate is present to conduct business as a body.) During the regular 1998 session, 1,629 bills were introduced in the House and 1,422 in the Senate. Of the 157 bills and four resolutions sent to the governor, a total of 15 were vetoed (11 full vetoes and four line-item vetoes). One bill was recalled by the Senate. The list of accomplishments from the 1998 session includes: a $1 billion capital projects law that will finance construction of public facilities around the state; a new tax law that provides more than $1 billion in tax rebates and reductions; an education initiative that will provide $70 million to help implement the state’s Graduation Standards; a measure that will provide a 3 percent raise for health care workers at nursing homes; and a proposed constitutional amendment that would eliminate the Office of the State Treasurer. Gov. Arne Carlson called legislators back April 20, 1998, for a special session to clarify a public policy question affecting Marvin Windows and Doors in Warroad, Minn.

  • 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.
