Earlier this month the Minnesota Legislative session came to a close with much work done and much work left unfinished. Today we had the pleasure of speaking with Representative Jamie Long (61B) to get some on the ground context of what got done, Special Sessions and the ups and downs of governing a state that is one of only three with a 'divided' government.
Also Canada bans more guns, Fargo tries a new way of voting, the Mona Lisa get a pie in the face and French soccer fans lose their minds in the face of relegation.
