Minnesota Democrats Boycott Legislative Opening Day

House Democrats boycotted the opening day of the 2025 legislative session in an effort to stop Republicans from claiming a majority. Republican leaders are seizing on a temporary majority following a court decision finding newly elected Democrat Curtis Johnson did not live in the district. The GOP has a 67-66 majority until a special election can take place in two weeks.
