Proponents and opponents of the measure stood in contrast, some calling for the bill's rejection for concern of environmental policy provisions, including the elimination of a citizens review panel overseeing pollution control efforts. Proponents of the bill, including Governor Mark Dayton, argued for the bill's passage, contending it was necessary to avoid a partial government shutdown. In the end, proponents successfully maneuvered the process to win in the end, and the special session adjourned as agreed to by the leaders and Governor Dayton. This video highlights the issues surrounding the omnibus agriculture, environment and natural resources appropriations bill.
