ST. PAUL, Minn.—The United States Supreme Court today announced its decision on the landmark Affordable Care Act case, King v. Burwell, which analyzed whether federal premium subsidies issued to residents in states without a state-established exchange are allowable. The Court ruled that subsidies provided through HealthCare.gov are indeed lawful, meaning that the federal exchange, which was hastily built after most states refused to build their own exchange, can continue issuing subsidies. This, says Twila Brase, president and co-founder of C...

The U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday upheld the nationwide availability of tax subsidies that are crucial to the implementation of President Barack Obama's signature healthcare law, handing a major victory to the president. The court ruled on a 6-3 vote that the 2010 Affordable Care Act, widely known as Obamacare, did not restrict the subsidies to states that establish their own online healthcare exchanges. It marked the second time in three years that the high court ruled against a major challenge to the law brought by conservatives seeking to...
ST. PAUL -- Call it old news. The latest U.S. Census estimates, released this week, confirm what we’ve known for some time: a sizable segment of Minnesota’s population is entering its golden years. But a wave of millennials is on their heels — give or take three decades. And the state continues to become more diverse by the year. The census figures, estimated as of July 2014, put the state at about 5,457,000 people overall — up 2.9 percent since the 2010 census. http://www.bemidjipioneer.com/news/region/3773826-census-shows-...
Hennepin County’s child protection agency has been ignoring child abuse reports to reduce caseloads and control its budget, a leader of a national child welfare group told the County Board on Thursday. Dee Wilson, a director of child welfare services for Casey Family Programs, also told the board that the county’s most common response to a child abuse report is to screen it out, meaning that a family is never visited and services never offered. Neglect cases are also given low priority, rarely get investigated, and then are often closed wit...

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court sent a clear message Thursday that President Barack Obama's health care overhaul is here to stay, rejecting a major challenge that would have imperiled the landmark law and health insurance for millions of Americans. Whether you call it the Affordable Care Act, Obamacare, or in the words of a dissenting justice, SCOTUScare, Obama's signature domestic achievement is, as the president himself put it, "reality." The 6-3 ruling, which upheld financial aid to millions of low- and middle-income Americans to help pay f...
General Mills Inc. said Thursday that it will begin a new round of cost-cutting, chiefly in its international division, that will result in the elimination of 675 to 725 jobs over the next year. The process will affect about 20 jobs in Minnesota, a company spokeswoman said. General Mills employs about 5,000 in the Twin Cities, though a round of cost-cutting announced last year led to the reduction of several hundred white-collar jobs here. The international job cuts primarily affect salaried and administrative positions, company spokeswoman...
