Minnesota is suing — and has been sued — a lot.
There are cases over health care funding, immigration, clean energy policy, election laws, tariffs, diversity policies and much more.
Playing point for much of it: Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison. He’s teamed up with Democratic attorneys general in other states for some of the litigation and has gone solo in other cases.
Closer to home, he’s in negotiations with the Legislature over ways to beef up fraud investigations and prosecutions.
Friday at noon, MPR News politics editor Brian Bakst speaks with Keith Ellison.
Later in broadcast, a breakdown on the debate over data centers. We’ll get a look at the projects across the state to build more of the information warehouses are getting pushback.
Guests:
