"That's the longest we've had a survivor on veno-venous ECMO so far," said Dr. Matthew Prekker, a medical director of HCMC's ECMO program, who treated Grubb. "He's had the...

The new rule is intended to decrease U.S. production and use of the gases by 85% over the next 15 years, part of...

Some northern Minnesota landowners say Enbridge is not following through with a pledge made to allay opposition to its new Line 3 oil pipeline. The company in 2018 said it would remove the old pipeline - on its own dime - or drain and clean the old pipe, paying landowners to keep it buried. Now some landowners claim Enbridge has failed to provide enough information to make an "informed decision," including how much they would be paid if they retained the old pipeline on their property....

Already battered by long shifts and high infection rates, essential workers struggling through the pandemic face another hazard of hard times: employers who steal their wages. When a recession hits, U.S. companies are more likely to stiff their lowest-wage workers. These businesses often pay less than the minimum wage, make employees work off the clock, or refuse to pay overtime rates. In the most egregious cases, bosses don't pay their employees at all. Companies that hire child care workers,...
President Joe Biden's call for Congress to pass police reform legislation by the anniversary of George Floyd's killing adds urgency to the task of federal lawmakers and the Minnesota delegation to find an agreement.
