Minnesota is on the brink of some big changes.By the time this year’s legislative session – the first since 2014 with Democrats in full control – wraps up later this month, we will likely (and in some cases, definitely) see:<ul><li>Legalized recreational marijuana</li><li>Paid family and medical leave for all Minnesota workers</li><li>An overhaul in how schools teach kids to read</li><li>An infusion of cash for things like child care, affordable housing and public construction projects</li><li>New abortion rights and LGBTQ+ rights protections</li></ul>And that’s only a partial list. There are also things that won’t get done, and lawmakers’ wish lists are too long even for a historically large budget surplus.MinnPost reporters Peter Callaghan and Walker Orenstein have been covering the legislative session and will share what they’ve observed. MinnPost editor Elizabeth Dunbar will join them.This lively Q&amp;A session is part of our MinnPost Social event series, presented by <a href="https://us.rbcwealthmanagement.com/nicig/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Darla Kashian — RBC Wealth Management</a> and <a href="https://greatriverenergy.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Great River Energy</a>, in which MinnPost journalists share insights with audience members in a casual atmosphere that includes a cash bar and light appetizers.
