At the Capitol, a closely divided Legislature is already sharpening its arguments. House Speaker Lisa Demuth has pledged to tackle what she calls both a spending problem and a fraud problem when lawmakers return, while any major fix will require bipartisan dealmaking with the DFL-controlled Senate and Governor Tim Walz, House Session Daily reports. [House Session Daily] Outside groups are also grading the 2024 session: CPAC’s 2025 Minnesota scorecard highlights sharp partisan divides over issues like education spending, housing mandates, and social policy, underscoring a broader debate over the size and role of state government.

Economically, Minnesota continues to post solid numbers, particularly in clean energy. Clean Energy Economy Minnesota notes that the state’s clean energy workforce reached nearly 64,000 jobs in 2024, adding about 1,700 positions and outpacing overall job growth, even as analysts warn of a potential slowdown tied to shifting federal policies. [Clean Energy Economy Minnesota] The Department of Employment and Economic Development reports new business expansion and job training awards aimed at keeping that momentum going, including programs to support small businesses and emerging industries such as cannabis.

Community investments are reshaping education and infrastructure, especially in Greater Minnesota. A recent packet from the Iron Range Resources and Rehabilitation agency outlines funding for a new greenhouse research lab at Minnesota North College’s Vermilion Campus and significant broadband expansions in rural St. Louis and Itasca counties, projects designed to exceed the state’s 2026 speed goals and close the digital divide. [IRRRB] Local school districts, from Marshall to Minneapolis and Northfield, are wrestling with enrollment declines, facility upgrades, and post-pandemic budget pressures while trying to maintain programs and avoid deep cuts, according to district financial reports and local coverage.

Public safety and immigration enforcement remain in the spotlight. Minnesota News Network and MPR News have highlighted recent violent incidents and an uptick in ICE arrests, fueling ongoing debates over policing, community trust, and federal immigration campaigns. [Minnesota News Network][MPR News]
Weather-wise, the State Climatology Office says Minnesotans are in for a more traditional winter. December has started cooler and snowier than the past two years, with the earliest below-zero readings since 2014 and a snowpack that is keeping average temperatures about 11 degrees lower statewide, Minnesota News Network reports. [Minnesota News Network]
Looking ahead, listeners can expect intense negotiations over the looming budget deficit, continued scrutiny of immigration and public safety, and key decisions on school finance and rural broadband that will shape Minnesota’s economic and social landscape into 2027.
