St. Paul, MN, October 18, 2024 — Legislative Evaluation Assembly of Minnesota (LEA) is releasing its report on the Minnesota legislature’s 2024 session. The 2024 LEA report rates the votes of all 201 legislators on 16 selected bills. The report summarizes these bills and analyzes them in more depth and detail than seen in the popular press. In 2024, LEA calls particular attention to many changes in Minnesota statute, including election laws, many insertions of discriminatory language, and statewide price controls, especially tennant/landlord regulations.
In 2024, LEA again felt the need to expand its printed report from 12 to 16 pages pages to adequately summarize and evaluate 16 bills. “The 2024 legislature continued to push the envelope with a large number of major, radical changes in policy, statutes and appropriations.” noted LEA President Don Lee.
