Dayton pitches special session priorities in Rochester, Mankato

With Gov. Mark Dayton and GOP leaders at the Capitol deadlocked over prospects for a special legislative session, the DFL governor is traveling the state touting unfinished projects likely to receive state funding if he and lawmakers can agree how to finish the job.

Dayton on Wednesday spoke at Rochester Community and Technical College and South Central College in North Mankato.

Dayton is scheduled to visit Moorhead and Worthington on Thursday.
