In news that surprises no one at #mnleg, we do in fact have a new pope before global #mnbudget targets! Yes, but: #mnleg leaders and Walz return to the table shortly. Walz said they were here til 10:30 last night, making progress.

Watch live as white smoke pours out of the Sistine Chapel chimney. It signals that a pope has been elected to lead the Catholic Church. https://t.co/JFVhrQwvhn

Walz today said he still thinks law allowing undoc immigrants to enroll in MNCare makes sense from economic/public health POV, but signaled he's open 2 discussing w/ #mnleg Rs who want to roll back. “I think if there’s a red line in here, morally we just have to cover children”

Walz tells reporters #mnleg leaders are "inching" toward a budget deal. "I think there is a commitment to getting this done on time." Leaders will join him on the boat at the fishing opener this weekend.
