Senator Jason Rarick, R-Pine City, is the author of the bill, and Senator Nick Frentz, DFL-North Mankato, is the DFL caucus chair on clean energy and climate change. They join Capitol Report moderator Shannon Loehrke to talk about how the new law will improve energy efficiency and reduce greenhouse gases in Minnesota.
