Minnesota lawmakers have headed home for the year. The Legislature adjourned earlier this week after enacting some priorities and setting others to the side.

Some bills still await action by Gov. Tim Walz. Barring a special session, these will be the last bills that Walz confronts after two terms in office.

Friday at noon, MPR News politics editor Brian Bakst speaks with Walz about the highs and the lows over his eight years in office.

Guests:

  • Gov. Tim Walz is a second-term Minnesota governor.

  • Peter Cox is a politics reporter for MPR News.
