Politics Friday: Budget begins to take shape as leaders huddle


Listen Later

MPR News politics editor Brian Bakst gets the lowdown on the negotiations that have begun over the new state budget.


Erin Campbell, commissioner of Minnesota Management and Budget, discusses why Gov. Tim Walz shaped his proposal as he did. And we’ll talk about the high-level negotiations that have commenced to reach a deal prior to the May 19 adjournment.


Later, the DFL Party has its first new chair in more than a decade. The new leader, Richard Carlbom, is in studio to introduce himself and his plans for a party seeking a rebound after a disappointing 2024 election.


Plus, a political reporter panel shares insights about the first deadline rush at the Legislature.


Guests:


  • Minnesota Management and Budget Commissioner Erin Campbell
  • DFL Party Chair Richard Carlbom
  • WCCO TV politics reporter Caroline Cummings
