Minnesota Legislature Ends One-Day Special Session After Passing Budget
Minnesota Capitol Building
Minnesota’s one-day special session ended early Saturday morning.
The session ended with the legislature passing a $48 billion budget to fund the government for the next two years.
The outline of the budget was agreed to during the regular session, which ended on May 20 after reaching the maximum number of days the state’s constitution permitted.
A budget deal needed to be finalized by July 1 to avert a shutdown.
