A “Yes” vote means approving a $700 million investment in critical infrastructure programs across Minnesota, including funding for critical water quality programs and lifting the spending caps on programs like Water Infrastructure Funding and Point Source Implementation Grants.
A “No” vote means rejecting regulations for data centers in Minnesota that would help protect ratepayers and water resources, leaving many of our state’s natural resources at greater risk from potentially rapid data center development, and threatening the state’s 100% carbon-free energy goal.
A “Yes” vote means approving the recommendations of the Clean Water Council and Outdoor Heritage Council to invest in projects protecting Minnesota’s lands and waters, as well as appropriating funds to support Minnesota’s environment and the arts.
A “Yes” vote means adopting changes to increase efficiency in the permitting process to allow Minnesota to build out its clean energy grid to meet the new 2040 clean energy goals and provide funds for water cleanup and climate-smart projects and practices in the agriculture and energy sectors.
