  • Lowest-income Minnesotans hit hardest by Gov. Tim Walz's tax plan, analysis shows

    Apr 25, 2019

    Gov. Tim Walz's plan to increase taxes would hit the lowest-income Minnesotans the hardest, according to a new state analysis that could frame his push for more money to fund new health, infrastructure and school initiatives. Minnesotans on the bottom half of the income ladder would absorb an average 9.9% tax increase, according to the analysis by Walz's own Department of Revenue. The upper half of Minnesotans would pay an additional 5.9%, although the wealthy would wind up paying far more in...

  • Minnesota law enforcement gets crafty in going after distracted drivers

    Apr 25, 2019

    Disguised as panhandlers, utility workers and construction teams, law enforcement officers are getting creative in their efforts to catch distracted drivers. On Wednesday, police officers in Eagan boarded a school bus and from that higher vantage point peered into vehicles as they rolled down the road, looking for motorists texting while driving. http://www.startribune.com/law-enforcement-gets-crafty-in-going-after-distracted-drivers/509033082/...

  • Use-of-force expert: None needed in Noor's fatal encounter with Damond

    Apr 25, 2019

    The Minneapolis police officer who fatally shot Justine Ruszczyk Damond two summers ago had no reason to use deadly force and violated department policy and national standards by doing so, two use-of-force experts said Wednesday. Even if former officer Mohamed Noor had been startled by a loud noise that night, as defense attorneys claim, he would not have been justified in using a Taser or pepper spray — much less his gun, the prosecution witnesses testified. http://www.startribune.com/use-of-force-expert-none-needed-in-enco...

    Apr 25, 2019

    Apr 25, 2019

  • US measles cases hit highest mark in 25 years

    Apr 25, 2019

    NEW YORK - Measles in the U.S. has climbed to its highest level in 25 years, closing in on 700 cases this year in a resurgence largely attributed to misinformation that is turning parents against vaccines. "This is alarming," said Dr. William Schaffner, a Vanderbilt University vaccine expert. Not only is measles dangerous in itself, but its return could mean other vaccine-preventable diseases seemingly consigned to the past may be coming back as well, he said. http://www.star...

  • Trump forms battle plan for post-Mueller probes: Just say no

    Apr 25, 2019

    WASHINGTON — Just say no. As House Democrats ramp up their post-Mueller investigations into President Donald Trump, his strategy for responding is simple: Resist on every legal front. The administration is straining to hold off congressional investigators, including their efforts to obtain the president's tax returns, his business' financial records and testimony from former senior aides. http://www.startribune.com/trump-says-he-ll-go-to-supreme-court-if-dems-try-to-impeach/508997342/...

  • BP: With co-op off the table, Laporte outlines $252,000 in budget cuts

    Apr 25, 2019

    LAPORTE—After a meeting earlier this month where many parents and other community members said they opposed a potential athletic co-op with a neighboring district, Laporte Public School leaders on Monday outlined about $252,000 worth of spending cuts, many of which School Board members had already enacted, and new revenue streams, some tentative, that could bring in more than $100,000. The cuts mean the district won't replace four retiring paraprofessionals and a special education teacher whom they had previously let go. It also means e...

  • Supreme Court Hears Case Watched by Educators on Census' Citizenship Question

    Apr 25, 2019

    Washington - The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday heard arguments over whether a citizenship question may be added to the 2020 census, in a case that is being watched by educators because of the potential impact that depressed response rates may have on the allocation of billions of dollars in federal education aid. Liberal justices were skeptical of U.S. Secretary of Commerce Wilbur L. Ross Jr.'s reasons for adding the citizenship question. https://blogs.edweek.org/edweek/school_law/2019/04/supreme_court_hears_census_cit.html...

  • How Trump factors into California's charter school wars

    Apr 25, 2019

    SACRAMENTO — It’s tough being a charter school advocate in California these days. Not only are the schools facing fierce opposition from the Democratic-controlled Legislature, teachers unions and a governor whom their backers spent millions trying to keep out of office, they also have the most politically toxic ally possible in California state politics: President Donald Trump. It’s particularly frustrating for Democrats like Margaret Fortune, a former adviser to two California governors who now runs a group of charter schools in Sacra...

  • St. Paul School District weighing hard choices on budget

    Apr 25, 2019

    Budget wrangling has begun in the St. Paul School District with Superintendent Joe Gothard scaling back a plan to hire dozens of new teacher coaches for the 2019-20 school year.

For about three-fourths of the game, we ran a new...
