Wow, this special session is actually moving at a decent clip. The most controversial item -- cutting state funding for immigrant health insurance -- has cleared both the Senate and House. Four DFLers joined Republicans supporting the rollback in the Senate.

The tied MN House passed a bill to end MinnesotaCare insurance for adult immigrants without legal status 68-65. DFL leader Melissa Hortman made good on her pledge to join 67 Republicans to pass it.

As anyone could have predicted at the MN Legislature, we're headed for overtime. Tied House and one seat DFL Senate majority couldn't get last week's budget deal done in time. Exact Special Session details TBD https://t.co/hhrODAEDXg
