Minnesota Legislature's 2007 session

What did DFLers get out of the legislative session?

Despite sizable majorities in the House and Senate, DFLers were unable to push through a gas tax increase to pay for transportation or an income tax increase on wealthy Minnesotans to pay for education spending or property tax relief. A veto threat also hangs over the tax bill passed in the final hours of the session.

Guests

• Larry Pogemiller: Senate majority leader, DFL-Minneapolis.
• Margaret Kelliher: Speaker of the House, DFL-Minneapolis.
