MINNESOTA LEGISLATIVE SESSION 

The 2025-2026 legislative session started January 14, 2025. The Democrats now have the majority in the Mn Senate - by one vote. The MN House is led by Republicans by one vote but a special election will be held in March which may result in a split majority. This has impacted bills being written and introduced.

Session dates: 1849-present
