Here’s a list of some of what they’ve accomplished in the State of Minnesota over this session:
- 20-weeks of paid family and medical leave for every worker
- school meals for all public and charter school students
- legalization of marijuana for recreational use
- made state law codifying Roe v. Wade
- legal protections for transgender youths who receive gender-affirming care
- set minimum wage for Uber and Lyft drivers
