KYIV, Ukraine - Russian forces shelled Ukraine's second-largest city on Monday, rocking a residential neighborhood, and closed in on the capital, Kyiv, in a 40-mile convoy of hundreds of tanks and other vehicles, as talks aimed at stopping the fighting yielded only an agreement to keep talking. The country's embattled president said the stepped-up shelling was aimed at forcing him into concessions. "I believe Russia is trying to put pressure (on Ukraine) with this simple method," Ukrainian...
Minnesota's predicted budget surplus has ballooned to a record of nearly $9.3 billion, driven by increased income tax collections, corporate profits and consumer spending. But finance officials cautioned Monday that inflation and the global financial aftershocks of Russia's attack on Ukraine could change the state's budget outlook. "Sometimes it's hard to even anticipate what's going to happen next month, much less next year," said Minnesota Management and Budget Commissioner Jim Schowalter....
Minnesotans would be protected from discrimination based on how they wear their hair under a bill the House passed Monday. The so-called CROWN Act, which stands for Creating a Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair, adds a definition of race that is inclusive of natural hairstyles and textures to the Minnesota Human Rights Act. It's an effort to break down barriers that Black Minnesotans face at work, school and other public spaces for wearing hairstyles such as braids, locs and twists. The bill "will clearly define that no one should be...
The coronavirus vaccine made by Pfizer-BioNTech is much less effective in preventing infection in children ages 5-11 than in older adolescents or adults, according to a large new set of data collected by health officials in New York state - a finding that has deep ramifications for these children and their parents. The Pfizer vaccine is the only COVID shot authorized for that age group in the United States. It still prevents severe illness in the children, but offers virtually no protection...

Depending on job position and market, Target will offer $15 to $24 an hour to workers, the company announced Monday. The Minneapolis-based company's pay structure drew national attention several years ago when it became one of the first retailers to signal it would lift starting wages to the $15 hourly level that...
Russia's invasion of Ukraine last week has sparked turmoil in agricultural markets just as Minnesota farmers prepare for this spring's planting. The farmers see opportunity but also economic danger - and a lot of uncertainty.

Russia and Ukraine together account for nearly one-third of global wheat exports....
UNITED NATIONS - Ambassadors from dozens of countries on Monday backed a proposal demanding that Russia halt its attack on Ukraine, as the U.N. General Assembly held a rare emergency session during a day of frenzied and sometimes fractious diplomacy surrounding the five-day-old war.

If Ukraine does not...

MINNEAPOLIS — Today the U.S. Senate defeated a motion to proceed with the so-called “Women’s Health Protection Act” (H.R. 3755). The far-reaching legislation, if enacted, would overturn nearly all protections for unborn children nationwide and prohibit Americans from enacting such protections in the future. “Although today’s outcome is a victory, the support for this extreme bill, which already passed through the House, shows just how far abortion supporters in Congress want to go,” said MCCL Executive Director Scott Fischbach. “If they succ...
