Session Statement
On Tuesday, Governor Tim Walz released the following statement celebrating the end of the 2025 legislative session.
*“Against the backdrop of partisan disfunction in Washington, Minnesota is proving that we can still come together and get things done for the people we serve,”* said Governor Walz. *“With the most closely divided legislature in the country, we passed the largest reduction in state spending in state history and protected the things that make Minnesota the best state in the country to raise a child: universal school meals, paid family and medical leave, tax cuts for seniors, and investments in child care and infrastructure. I applaud the legislators who worked late into the night to get this done and I look forward to signing this budget into law.”*

Last week, Governor Walz announced a new $2.4 million initiative to develop and implement agriculture-focused workforce training programs.
*“Farmers drive our economy, contribute to a nation-leading industry, and most importantly, provide the food and raw materials that the rest of the world depend on,” *said Governor Walz. *“We should be supporting, training, and encouraging the next generation of farmers. Training programs like this one are an effective way to help people overcome barriers to gaining the skills and knowledge they’ll need to enter one of the growing career areas in agriculture.”*
