MINNEAPOLIS - Federal law enforcement agencies did not warn state officials before they raided a Mexican restaurant in south Minneapolis earlier this week, Gov. Tim Walz said Thursday. "They didn't tell us what was happening," Walz told a group of States Newsroom editors, according to a recording of the interview shared by Walz's staff. The raid was one of eight across the Twin Cities on Tuesday and culminated in confrontations between protestors and law enforcement on E. Lake Street.

With just hours remaining in the regular 2025 legislative session on Monday, Minnesota lawmakers still hadn't granted final passage to major pieces of the upcoming two-year state budget, including bills on taxes, education and health care spending. A special session will be required to enact last week's $66 billion or so budget framework agreement reached by Gov. Tim Walz, the Democratic-Farmer-Labor majority Senate and DFL and Republican leadership of the 67-67 tied House.
