Legislative Update ? November 2, 2023

Dear Neighbors,

It was great to ?bee? out in the community with you Tuesday night for South St. Paul?s Annual Great Halloween Get-Together. Thank you to all the city staff and volunteers for helping out with trick-or-treating families on a cold October 31st!

Hansen SSP Halloween

This week is the start of the 2023 deer hunting firearm season and I will be participating in the Governor?s Season Opener. You can find more hunting and trapping information at the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources website [ [link removed] ].

Lawns to Legumes Event

Last weekend I visited the University of Minnesota Tashjian Bee Center at the Arboretum for a ?Lawns to Legumes? info session alongside other state legislators and staff from the Board of Water and Soil Health (BWSR). Staff talked about how to apply for the program, which you can do here before November 30th [ [link removed] ], as well as how popular the program is.

L2L Event

With over 20,000 applicants wanting to make their lawns more pollinator-friendly, it?s clear this is one of the most successful conservation programs in state history.

Mark your calendars for?*Sunday, December 10 from 1:00-3:00pm*, where we will have a similar event at the Croatian Hall in South St. Paul. Speakers will include Dr. Marla Spivak, an?entomologist at the U of M Bee Center as well as staff from BWSR!

Special Election Information

Next Tuesday, November 7th, there will be a special election held for the South St. Paul School Board District #6 seat.? You can find more information on the election and candidates at the City of South St. Paul?s webpage here [ [link removed] ].

Minnesota ranks top in the nation for voter turnout, so make sure to get out there and have your voice heard! At the legislature we have passed many bills to make voting simple and easy for all citizens, including same-day voter registration. To check your registration status or to find out what you need in order to register same-day, check out the Secretary of State?s guide here [ [link removed] ].
