SURFSIDE, Fla. - A beachfront condo building partially collapsed Thursday outside Miami, killing at least one person and trapping others in the tower that resembled a giant fractured dollhouse, with one side sheared away.

A wing of the 12-story building in the community of Surfside came down with a roar around 1:30 a.m. By late evening, nearly 100 people were still unaccounted for, authorities said, raising...
VANCOUVER, British Columbia - Leaders of Indigenous groups in Canada said Thursday investigators have found more than 600 unmarked graves at the site of a former residential school for Indigenous children - a discovery that follows last month's report of 215 bodies found at another school. The bodies were discovered at the Marieval Indian Residential School, which operated from 1899 to 1997 where the Cowessess First Nation is now located, about 85 miles (135 kilometers) east of Regina, the...
Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison, whose office is increasingly being asked to lead police prosecutions, is again meeting legislative resistance in his bid to build up the state's criminal division. Ellison inherited an office with just one full-time criminal attorney a decade after it had about a dozen prosecutors. Keeping with an early priority of his first term, he sought this year to swell his office's ranks with 11 new prosecutors in a request to the Legislature. Yet that request...
WASHINGTON - President Joe Biden announced on Thursday a hard-earned bipartisan agreement on a pared-down infrastructure plan that would make a start on his top legislative priority and validate his efforts to reach across the political aisle. But he openly acknowledged that Democrats will likely have to tackle much of the rest on their own. The bill's price tag at $973 billion over five years, or $1.2 trillion over eight years, is a scaled-back but still significant piece of Biden's broader...
President Joe Biden's administration has signaled it has no intention of yanking federal permits for Enbridge's controversial Line 3 pipeline - despite pleas to do so by environmental groups and two Indian bands. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers continued defending the water permit it granted Enbridge in November in a federal court filing late Wednesday night. The permit was the last major approval the company needed to begin construction on its 340-mile pipeline across northern Minnesota. The...
On the final day of the regular legislative session, DFL Gov. Tim Walz and leaders in Minnesota's divided Legislature agreed on an overarching plan for the next two years of state spending. But the Republican-controlled Senate and DFL-led House are back in special session to finalize the details of the $52 billion budget plan and to try to agree on controversial policy provisions. Here's where the key issues stand. https://www.startribune.com/where-big-issues-stand-at-the-min...
A 39-year-old man has been indicted by a federal grand jury, accused of sexually assaulting a victim on the Red Lake Indian Reservation. Tony Lee Lussier, of Red Lake, is charged with one count of assault with a dangerous weapon (a knife) and one count of sexual abuse of an incapable victim. According to the U.S. Attorney's Office, citing court documents, Lussier assaulted a victim with a knife and engaged in a sexual act with the victim, who at the time was "physically incapable of declining pa...
WASHINGTON, D.C. [6/24/21]—U.S. Senators Tina Smith (D-Minn.) and Mike Rounds (R-S.D.) are pressing bipartisan legislation to help Native families living in rural areas achieve homeownership. Right now, the homeownership rate for Native American households is around 54 percent, while the rate for white households is 72 percent. A study from the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis’ Center for Indian Country Development also found that Native households often face higher mortgage costs when seeking to buy a home, especially when those loans...

(St. Paul, MN) -- Today in response to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ decision to continue defending its water permit for Enbridge’s Line 3 pipeline, MN350 issued the following statement: “Today's decision is the Biden administration on autopilot, defending a Trump water permit for a massive tar sands pipeline that is actually indefensible,” said Midwest Tar Sands organizer Andy Pearson. “The climate crisis can't afford inaction on this scale. President Biden needs to take every opportunity to undo Trump's damage, and that means...
