28:31Now PlayingA result of the 2023 legislative session was the creation of a Task Force on Aging, to identify and develop state resources for an aging population. Representative Ginny Klevorn, DFL-Plymouth, is the task force chair, and she joins Capitol Report moderator Shannon Loehrke to talk about the group's priorities.
Minnesotan’s awareness of the Metropolitan Council has likely increased over the past few years due to the cost overruns and other problems with the Southwest Light Rail Transit project. During the 2023 legislative session, lawmakers created a task force to recommend changes to the regional planning organization. Senator Eric Pratt, R-Prior Lake, a member of the Metropolitan Governance Task Force, joins Shannon to offer his perspective.
Also in the program, an up-close look at the Capitol's "Progress of the State" quadriga and a reminder to book your tickets for the "Shadows and Spirits of the Capitol" tour.
