Since 2010, MN has consistently chosen DFL leadership. The states around us picked the GOP. This analysis shows the results for MN construction workers: more jobs, higher wages, better benefits, and safer workplaces. Something to keep in mind as we near Election Day.

Yesterday, we covered the wage gains made by Minnesota’s construction workers, as documented in our new report northstarpolicy.org/constructing-s…. Today, we turn to two other essential aspects of work: benefits and safety.

This week, we’ve demonstrated the superior position enjoyed by MN construction workers. But what about the industry? Do MN’s better-treated workers produce more? The short answer: yes. northstarpolicy.org/constructing-s…

Huge thanks to Sadé Lindsay for this wonderful review of my book in PSQ! Really insightful and offering some great ideas for ways to build on this work.

AI is coming, and our policies are already behind the ball. Our latest research shows the impact AI will have on MN's working people, and suggests some steps our state can take to protect workers. #mnleg

AI's impact on workers may well be the defining labor question of our generation. I'm very excited that North Star Policy Action is thinking about how to align AI innovation with the welfare of working Minnesotans and hope our report moves us towards a productive conversation in MN.

Really enjoyed getting to talk to Tom Crann, MPR News at MPR News about North Star Policy Action's recent report on the impact of AI on Minnesota workers. Lots of important work to do in this state to align AI innovation with worker welfare! mprnews.org/episode/2025/0…

In the The Minnesota Star Tribune today, our Aaron Rosenthal lays out what's at stake for Minnesota's communities, workers, and energy consumers if Trump attacks Biden's infrastructure investments. startribune.com/dont-claw-back…

Today our research was the centerpiece of an important conversation about AI's impact on Minnesota's workers at the Minnesota Senate Labor Committee. AI adoption is moving faster than our public policies, and workers are already feeling the effects. northstarpolicy.org/progress-and-p…

Really appreciated the chance to present our AI report to the Minnesota Senate Labor Committee today. Looking forward to pro-worker AI legislation in the North Star State!

Republicans in the #mnleg are attacking Paid Leave and Earned Sick and Safe Time programs, falsely claiming these programs will damage businesses and Minnesota's economy. We're setting the record straight about these important programs: northstarpolicy.org/pfml-and-esst-…

There’s lots of focus on fraud in the Minnesota legislature. But we couldn’t help but notice there’s a multi billion dollar fraud that’s not getting anywhere near the same attention. #mnleg startribune.com/as-minnesota-p…

An important point about private school vouchers: they take money from public schools to help the rich. On average, 75% of voucher funds go to wealthy families already paying for private schools. And vouchers are often funded through generous tax credits for the wealthy.
