The 2011 Minnesota regular legislative session adjourned without a balanced budget; and now, the state government has shut down.

Below are tools and resources, as well as legal and advocacy updates you can use to inform families, residents, your local press and legislators about the shut-down and its effect on the residents you serve and the caregivers who provide their care. 

In the midst of all this, we need to continue to tell lawmakers that they need to balance the state budget in a way that will prioritize Minnesota’s seniors and the caregivers who serve them.
