Minnesota has guaranteed abortion rights in state law, set ambitious new clean energy goals and is about to allow unauthorized immigrants to get driver's licenses and restore voting eligibility to people released from prison. And Democrats have controlled state government for less than two months. Scores of other long-sought DFL policy and spending goals are racing toward reality amid a whirlwind of progressive action at the State Capitol. The breakneck pace matches enthusiasm in other states...
The votes are counted - Empire officially will become Minnesota's newest city on Tuesday when the new mayor and City Council are sworn in.

As the Minnesota Senate debated abortion access last month for 15 hours, President Bobby Joe Championwas front and center on the podium for a 13-hour stretch without a break or a sip of water. The debate on the PRO Act, which protects abortion rights in state law, was the first extended Senate session this year. If it was a test of Champion's mettle, he passed, moving smoothly through a thick stack of amendments, calling on senators in sequence from a running list and firmly limiting...
This week, Minnesota budget authorities will release their semiannual update on the state's finances. Barring major surprises, it will show that Minnesota has a considerable surplus. The announcement will renew an 18-month-old debate about what to do with the funds. Most conservatives will continue calls to "give it back" through tax cuts, while most Democrats will champion a mix of tax cuts, targeted tax credits and increased funding for public goods and services like schools, child care and...
When Joe Bendickson was growing up, first on the Lake Traverse Reservation near the Minnesota-South Dakota border and then in St. Paul, he did not speak Dakota, his ancestral tongue. Few did. Generations of Native Americans had been institutionally raised in boarding schools, which banned students from speaking their native language. The Dakota language was becoming extinct. As he grew older, he became more interested in his ancestry as a member of the Sisseton Wahpeton Oyate tribe. He asked...
Isabella Star LaBlanc keeps running into her 17-year-old self. The 25-year-old actor was reminded of her on a recent visit home to Minneapolis, on a stop by her old high school. But she's been running into her in Iceland, too. There, LaBlanc is filming the next season of "True Detective," playing Leah, the 17-year-old stepdaughter of Jodie Foster's character, Det. Liz Danvers. Like LaBlanc, her character is Native American. But unlike LaBlanc at that age, she's proud. Confident....
VUHLEDAR, Ukraine — The murky water oh so slowly trickles from the filthy drainpipe into her grimy container — the ticking seconds ramping up the risk that Emilia Budskaya could lose life or limb to Russian artillery strikes torturing her front-line town in eastern Ukraine. Gaping gashes from shrapnel in the courtyard walls around her testify to the dangers of venturing outside — exposed and without the body armor that Ukrainian soldiers defending Vuhledar wear when they emerge from their bunkers. But Budskaya and her daughter need water to cl...
ROME - A wooden boat crowded with migrants smashed into rocky reefs and broke apart before dawn Sunday off the Italian coast, authorities said. Rescuers recovered nearly 60 bodies, and dozens more people were missing in the rough waters. Officials feared the death toll could top 100 since some survivors indicated the boat had as many as 200 passengers when it set out from Turkey, United Nations refugee and migration agencies said. At least 80 people were found alive, including some who reached...
WASHINGTON - If you get health care coverage through Medicaid, you might be at risk of losing that coverage over the next year. Roughly 84 million people are covered by the government-sponsored program, which has grown by 20 million people since January 2020, just before the COVID-19 pandemic hit. But as states begin checking everyone's eligibility for Medicaid for the first time in three years, as many as 14 million people could lose access to that health care coverage. http...
ANTAKYA/ANKARA, Turkey - Turkey has begun work to rebuild homes following this month's devastating earthquakes, a government official said Friday, as the combined death toll in Turkey and Syria surpassed 50,000. More than 160,000 buildings containing 520,000 apartments collapsed or were severely damaged in the Feb. 6 earthquakes that killed tens of thousands in Turkey and neighboring Syria. The Disaster and Emergency Management Authority announced the death toll in Turkey due to earthquakes...
ST. PAUL — These days the internet is rife with “deepfakes,” artificial intelligence-generated video and sound, often of well-known people doing and saying things they’ve never done. The technology has been around for a while, but in the past year it has proliferated on a scale never seen before. While many of these fakes are seemingly harmless, like ex-presidents trading vulgar barbs on Joe Rogan’s podcast, there have also been fake sexual videos of people who never consented to their images being used that way. Policymakers are also conc...

The National Congress of American Indians announced Thursday that it had acquired ownership of the well-known "Crying Indian" anti-pollution public service announcement (PSA) advertisement that first aired on Earth Day in 1971. The advertisement, which raised awareness of environmental protection and became a part of popular culture at the time of its creation, was later known for featuring imagery that stereotyped American Indian and Alaska Native people and misappropriated Native culture....
Stephanie Autumn was 18 years old when she arrived in March 1973 at Wounded Knee, South Dakota. She would turn 19 later that month. Assigned to the so-called security shack for the American Indian Movement leaders who had occupied the town, she would pray and remember the ceremonies when the firefights erupted. “To be in a situation where the United States government was firing upon us with artillery, with automatic weaponry, with gas, you can't describe it,” she said. “It's like an altered state, that you are at war … And all you could d...

Just as golfers need a golf ball to play, snow snake players need a snow snake. And like golf with its multiplicity of clubs, an assortment of different snow snakes can help meet the challenges of a course. All week inside the Rail River Folk School in Bemidji lots of people worked hard scraping and sanding long pieces of wood into snow snakes, ready to be launched in competition. Keeping warm by a large furnace in the corner of the room Frank Sprague and Kevin Finney of Great Lakes Lifeways Institute in Michigan explained the finer points of...
