Minnesota's Government Shuts Down!!

Post by IRONm@N »

ST. PAUL, Minn. - More than 9,000 state employees were told to stay home Friday and drivers found highway rest stops closed at the start of the busy Fourth of July weekend as a budget stalemate led to the first government shutdown in Minnesota history.


The Democrats, who control the state Senate, were locked in a standoff with Republican Gov. Tim Pawlenty and the GOP-controlled House over how much to spend on schools and health care and how to pay for it. As a result, the new fiscal year began Friday, just after midnight, with only a partial spending plan in place.

-I wonder what is next for us Minnesotans without government!
its funny how MN celebrate July 4th without government and Somalis celebrate July 1st without government.
