Special session under way

The Minnesota Senate and House are meeting this afternoon. Gov. Mark Dayton called the special session with the goal to end the longest shutdown of the state government by reaching an agreement on a budget.

We are covering the details of the bills on the Shutdown 2011 blog.

Here are the proposed bills.

Given the divergent approaches to governing seen among state leaders, is there anything in the bills you think that should be prioritized, or is there something there that you think should be opposed that would have a chance of getting support?
