Senate & House Minority Caucus Goals, Replenishing the Unemployment Fund, Limiting No-Knock Warrants

Members representing the minority party in the legislature do not set the agenda, may not have their bills heard, and cannot stop a bill from moving forward.  However, they do perform an essential role in lawmaking by highlighting contrasting views and raising important questions about proposed legislation.  Senate Minority Leader Melisa López Franzen and House Minority Leader Kurt Daudt talk with Capitol Report moderator Shannon Loehrke about their caucus' respective positions on key issues coming before the legislature this session.

Also in the program, highlights from press conferences calling for the replenishment of Minnesota’s Unemployment Insurance (UI) Trust Fund and limiting the use of no-knock warrants.
