WASHINGTON – Three of Minnesota's leading Democrats oppose the Minneapolis ballot question that could replace the city's Police Department with a new public safety agency, but they aren't campaigning against it.

Amy Klobuchar and Tina Smith and Gov. Tim Walz have made their opposition clear but a...

Victims were robbed at gunpoint by multiple suspects in six carjackings in an area bounded by Hiawatha Avenue, Interstate 35W,...
Half of Minneapolis Public School students can't read at grade level - a statistic that has long held true - and some parents are losing patience, showing up to protests holding signs that say "literacy for all." School board members are also starting to show frustration with what they see as a lack of progress on teaching kids to read and write. Despite some gains, a stubborn achievement gap persists between white students and students of color. The issue factored into the board's 5-4 decision...

The Food and Drug Administration's authorization of a COVID-19 vaccine for children ages 5-11 on Friday makes 28 million unvaccinated children in the United States suddenly eligible for the shot and offers the country an opportunity to make big inroads in its efforts to achieve broad immunity against the coronavirus. But in a nation that has already struggled with COVID vaccine hesitancy, getting shots into those little arms may present health authorities with the toughest vaccination challenge...

The two fastest Native cyclists are Oneida, and brother and sister. Shayna and Neilson Powless have been excelling as elite professional cyclists for more than a few years and continue to climb to their own pinnacles. Their multi-athletic journeys took them to being high level performers on the roads and trails. And perhaps, the best is yet to come. A third Oneida cyclist, Cole House, made similar noise starting nearly two decades ago. https://indiancountrytoday.com/news/oneida-cyclists-blaze-their-own-trail...

Proclamations have called for governments, groups, organizations and people across the...
